DENVER - eTradeWire -- Acme Distribution partner, Doug Sampson, appointed Chairman of IWLA

Aurora, CO, Acme Distribution (https://acmedistribution.com/), Colorado's leading asset-based third-party logistics provider, is pleased to recognize Doug Sampson's appointment as Chairman of the International Warehouse Logistics Association (IWLA) (https://iwla.com/), reinforcing both his long-standing leadership in the warehousing industry and Acme's continued role in the conversations shaping third-party logistics, supply chain operations, and industry advocacy across North America.

Doug Sampson brings more than 45 years of logistics and warehousing experience to the role. He began his career on the warehouse floor in hands-on operational roles, including unloading boxcars and progressing through nearly every function in the business before moving into leadership. That ground-up experience has shaped a career-long perspective centered on practical, real-world supply chain execution.

As Chairman of IWLA, Sampson will help guide an association strategic plan centered on three core priorities: advocacy, education, and membership. Those pillars reflect the issues that matter most to warehouse operators today, from regulatory pressure and legislative visibility to workforce development, peer learning, and the ongoing evolution of logistics technology.

Under his leadership, IWLA will continue supporting members through advocacy efforts, educational programming, and member collaboration. Those efforts include foundational warehousing education, online learning initiatives, Women of Warehousing programming, special interest groups, mastermind groups, and forums focused on automation and logistics technology.

Sampson's view on innovation is equally practical. Rather than treating automation and AI as trends to chase, he emphasizes understanding where technology creates measurable value, where it fits operationally, and how warehouse operators can evaluate return on investment before making major commitments.
