Quality Refrigerated Services, Inc. upgraded its warehouse management software to Accellos’ cloud-based 3PL service, which in turn customized its services and streamlined its billing practices. With several years of cold storage and meat industry experience under his belt, Tim Jackes helped execute Omaha, Neb.-based Millard Refrigerated Services’ expansion from only a couple of locations to more than 30 sites. Jackes worked part-time at a cold storage company while attending college. He worked full-time for another six years before joining Iowa Beef Processors (IBP), what is now Tyson Fresh Meats based in Dakota Dunes, S.D.
When he decided to strike out on his own, Jackes had a modest vision; establishing Quality Refrigerated Services as a 3PL cold storage warehousing company that could excel in terms of the scope and flexibility of its services and customer accommodations.
