How Warehousing and Fulfillment
Work Together

Warehousing is the storage, inventory management and distribution of your
products. It is made up of the facilities and processes used for storing your products
before they are sold or shipped.

Fulfillment takes a higher level view. It encompasses all the processes you use for
producing, receiving, processing and delivering orders to customers and clients.

Warehousing Storage and Distribution

Warehousing provides you with centralized locations for storing your products, usually for an extended period of time. In addition to storage, they’re your hubs for receiving new and replenishing existing inventory, and streamlining shipping and distribution.

For organizations with large or complex inventories, handling warehousing on your own can be a daunting task. There often isn’t enough space on-site or personnel to handle shipping, receiving and all the other processes that come with operating your own warehouse.

Even outsourcing your warehousing operations can prove difficult. If you’re using multiple warehousing partners to store your products, simply managing the different processes for each vendor can be a drain on your time and resources.

Warehouse Consolidation

The best way to ensure your warehousing operations run smoothly is to consolidate your storage with a single warehousing partner. This will improve the flow of your products and goods throughout your supply chain, and increase efficiency when it comes to order fulfillment.

Working with a third-party logistics (3PL) partner for your warehousing needs, it makes managing your inventory easier, allowing you to respond to changes in demand and improve customer satisfaction. That’s why choosing the right warehousing partner makes all the difference.

What to Look For in a Warehousing Partner

Warehousing should be seen as a strategic piece of your overall business operations. Your
warehousing is another opportunity to strengthen customer experience, enhance your
organization’s efficiency and ultimately improve your profitability.

Order Fulfillment Services

Fulfillment centers give your business the resources to quickly fulfill orders and deliver them to your customers. They also specialize in branding, packaging and shipping options that reflect your company’s image and messaging.

Relying on in-house fulfillment or multiple fulfillment partners for different product categories takes time and money that could be spent on developing new products, marketing campaigns and more objectives to grow your business.

Using a single partner for your fulfillment solutions and services removes these burdens. Third-party fulfillment centers are set up to handle the entire order fulfillment process for your company.

Fulfillment Distribution Centers

Fulfillment centers utilize state-of-the-art technology to accurately produce and distribute your products, and give you logistics advantages that lead to cost-effective and timely distribution.

This also includes order picking, packing and shipping, and all other logistics processes that serve to get a product from seller to customer.

What to Look for in a Fulfillment Partner

When you work with an expert fulfillment partner, your organization will be able to rely on a
fulfillment center tailored to your distribution needs, and the time and money previously
spent on space and equipment can be redirected to other parts of your business.

Print on Demand Fulfillment

Fulfillment centers can also be used when you’re not using any on-hand inventory. Taking a print-on-demand approach to print fulfillment keeps you from overspending on unused items, and reduces the costs that come with obsolescence and waste.

Print fulfillment centers make it easy to merge your print-on-demand items and your inventory products all in one place.

Taylor’s print-on-demand facilities make up North America’s largest print-on-demand footprint, offering a wide range of products, including stationery, wall art, gifts, décor, packing and more.

Product Kitting

Product kitting is the assembly of a collection of individual products into a custom package or kit constructed with a specific preference or customer in mind. Kits can be put together through manual or automated processes, depending on the complexity of the final product.

The kitting process adds another layer of complexity to the in-house warehousing and fulfillment strategy. If the day-to-day packing and shipping of individual products stretches your resources thin, then kit assembly is likely not a task you have the time or money for.

Kitting can be even more difficult with multiple vendors producing them. When your products are in the hands of several different suppliers, it is very hard to guarantee your brand is properly represented every time.

Kitting Services and Order Fulfillment

Partnering with a third-party kitting and fulfillment vendor that provides custom kitting is the solution to these issues.Relying on a single kitting partner eliminates the hassle of working with multiple suppliers, and allows you to reorient the resources you would be using for in-house kitting back to core business priorities.

Storage

Your kitting provider takes on all storage responsibilities. This saves not only what you would spend, but also the space that would need to be used to house your products.

Distribution and Delivery

When you do your kitting in-house, you can only ship from one location. A kitting partner gives you strategically located distribution centers that reduce both shipping time and cost.

The Kitting Process

A kitting and fulfillment partner will have entire teams dedicated to the fast and accurate kit assembly for your company.

Supply Chain Optimization

As demand for certain products rises and falls, you might need to order more than you can store. Working with a kitting provider gives you the space, speed and flexibility to adjust with the market.

Custom Packaging and Labeling

Another area where a kitting provider can stand out is with custom packaging. Packaging, labeling, wrapping and more can be fitted based on specific customer and location needs.

Customer Satisfaction

Your kitting partner will have the tools to offer customer personalization that in-house kitting can’t match. This will increase customer satisfaction and loyalty, and lead to more sales.

Cold Chain Fulfillment

Cold chain fulfillment is the safe storage, packaging and delivery of temperature-sensitive products for both the pharmaceutical and retail industries. The storage and packaging solutions you choose for your company’s temperature-sensitive items are critical to ensuring they arrive in top condition, and meet the regulatory requirements of your industry.

Cold chain distribution is extremely difficult to do in-house, and using multiple vendors to store and ship products that require temperature consistency is not much easier.

When your cold chain solutions are spread out across several suppliers, you run into issues with delivery intervals, lapses in package design and other best practices, and the availability of eco-friendly packaging options.

Cold Chain Supplies Warehousing and Distribution

As a cold chain fulfillment partner, we give your company the specialized cold chain packaging and logistics resources you need to ensure your temperature-sensitive products are stored and delivered as intended.

Pharmaceutical Cold Chain Solutions

Reliable cold chain solutions are critical for the pharmaceutical industry. Temperature-sensitive products such as prescription drugs, vaccinations and inhalers require a temperature-controlled environment all the way from manufacturing to use by the recipient.

When you work with an expert in pharmaceutical cold chain packaging, your organization will have the benefits of secure and efficient cold storage, packaging and shipping.

Retail Cold Chain Solutions

The need for temperature control is not just essential for pharmacies. The retail and food industries also require cold chain storage and distribution for certain products.

Keeping retail and food products at their optimal temperatures maximizes both freshness and shelf life.
