PROFILE DSC Logistics (formerly Dry Storage Corp.) provides logistics services -- warehousing, distribution, transportation -- on a contract basis. Customers are manufacturers in markets such as chemicals, industrial supplies, and food service, such as Philip Morris, Nabisco, and Pillsbury. The company's electronic data interchange systems and radio communications monitor each loads' stop along the distribution trail.
