What is eCommerce Fulfillment—and When Should You Outsource It?

As your online brand scales, your garage or office just isn’t going to cut it anymore. You need a system to manage orders, store inventory, and ship worldwide—without spending your whole day packing boxes.

That’s where eCommerce fulfillment comes in.

What is eCommerce Fulfillment?

It’s the process of storing, picking, packing, and shipping your products to customers. When done well, it helps you:

• Ship faster
  
  
• Reduce shipping costs
  
  
• Improve inventory accuracy
  
  
• Scale without hiring in-house teams
  
  

Signs You Need to Outsource Fulfillment

If you’re…

• Spending more time packing than growing
  
  
• Getting negative reviews about shipping delays
  
  
• Struggling to ship in warm climates (melting issues)
  
  
• Planning to scale internationally
  
  

…then it’s time to outsource to a professional 3PL like Upstate Prep.
