CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. – March 2021 – Kenco Logistics, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider, announced today that Ravensburger has selected the company to provide supply chain services supporting their North American business. A German game, playset, and toy company, Ravensburger’s extensive growth led to the decision to outsource its warehousing, distribution, and transportation functions.
