Why to outsource to a 3PL?
Outsourcing to a third-party logistics (3PL) company has many advantages for ecommerce retailers. Through the use of a 3PL provider, retailers are able to access a range of warehousing and distribution services that are tailored to their business needs.
This can include pick and pack, inventory control, shipping, freight forwarding, and even customised packaging solutions.
3PL providers offer access to their network of trusted carriers and discounts on shipping and freight that would otherwise be unavailable to the retailer.
Free your time to focus on growing your business
3PL services help to reduce the retailer’s workload by taking care of order fulfilment and delivery.
This enables the retailer to focus on what they do best; operations management, merchandising, marketing, customer service and other tasks associated with running a successful online store.
Additionally, it allows them to scale up their business as they grow, taking the stress of warehousing and distribution off their team’s plate.
Increased Supply Chain Control
Third-party logistics providers also provide retailers with greater control over their supply chain.
This includes access to real-time visibility tools such as tracking and tracing, enabling retailers to offer accurate and precise order status updates to consumers.
Using a 3PL provider also offers retailers a range of analytical and reporting capabilities, allowing them to make informed decisions on their delivery strategy.
Reduced Costs
Outsourcing to a 3PL provider allows retailers to meet customer expectations quickly and cost-effectively.
With their support, retailers can take advantage of reduced costs by leveraging on higher purchasing power and faster deliveries.
This can lead to increased customer satisfaction, setting their brand apart from the competition.
