# FreightWaves - World’s first online marketplace helping to combat pallet reuse inefficiencies - October 2022
Published by [PalletTrader Press](https://newsroom.pallettrader.com/author/pallettrader-press) on 10/27/22 11:50 AM
Nothing in a truck is stored or moved without a pallet under it, but sourcing and selling pallets is an inefficient process. Until recently, there has been no accessible, universal location to conduct pallet business. Freighttalent recently sat down with some early adopters of PalletTrader’s innovative platform to discuss how PalletTrader is shaking up the industry.
“It allows for pallet loads to be on demand and increases efficiency to quickly move products. SFVP is one of many companies that are part of the launch for this new e-commerce platform that is leading the way and innovating the industry,” commented George Eroza, director of business development at San Fernando Valley Pallet Co. (SFVP), a devout user of the PalletTrader platform.
eBay, etsy and other online marketplaces have set the standard for buying and selling for some time now, but until PalletTrader’s pallet sourcing platform, that model has yet to be applied to the supply chain model.
Don Vultaggio, chairman of Arizona Beverage Co., which buys hundreds of thousands of pallets annually to ship its iconic iced tea products thinks PalletTrader’s platform is a solution to a long-standing pain point:
“Pallets are a necessary cost of doing business. There’s been this dilemma in the market for years around how pallets are purchased. Where do I find them? Am I getting a fair price? How do I recover and reuse them? Now you can go to a single market online, see supply and pricing in one place — anywhere in the U.S. If it’s where you need it at a good price, you take it. Simple, clean and efficient — and everyone in the supply chain benefits.”
Other bonuses of using the platform that were highlighted? No development and marketing costs, plus the unique opportunity to customize privacy settings.
