Pick and Pack Fulfilment Services for e-Commerce Businesses

As a rule of thumb, when a company reaches 100 monthly orders, it's time to plan for outsourcing pick and pack fulfilment services. Being in a growth stage is an excellent problem to have, but not being able to manage an increasing shipping volume can negatively affect your business. 

So, act now and get an order fulfilment partner on board. A third-party logistics (3PL) provider like Bezos.ai manages all aspects of fulfilment, from warehousing and picking and packing to shipping.

Our reliable pick and pack fulfilment services can significantly improve the running of a successful business, especially in the e-commerce industry, where effective order fulfilment is crucial. With customers expecting speedy and timely delivery, it’s essential to have the proper infrastructure in place.

At Bezos, we work diligently to ensure that your inventory is safeguarded throughout the entire process, from picking and packing all the way to delivery. 

And because of our extensive integration with over 30 platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce and Squarespace, you can rest easy knowing that their resources are aiding us in providing timely service at an affordable cost.

Read on to see how Bezos.ai’s pick & pack fulfilment services can help your business keep profitability high and costs low, all while providing lightning-fast deliveries to customers.

What Are Pick and Pack Services? 

Pick and pack is the process in which fulfilment centres collect ordered items from their inventories and package them for distribution to the end customers, helping warehouse managers streamline operations, achieve a higher perfect order rate and improve customer satisfaction.

During warehouse picking, the picker uses a list to locate and retrieve the correct quantities of each item from its assigned location in the warehouse. The items are then packed into the appropriate box with the necessary packaging materials and documentation before the package is labelled and shipped to the customer.

Outsourcing your pick and pack duties to a third-party logistics (3PL) provider can be brilliant for your e-commerce business. This can help you to streamline your operations and focus on growing your business while leaving the logistics and fulfilment tasks to a dedicated partner. 

However, not all 3PL providers are created equal, and it’s essential to choose an excellent one like Bezos.ai to ensure that your pick & pack services run smoothly.
