Outsourced Fulfillment für Unternehmen, die bereit sind, die Lagerlogistik abzugeben

Build the all-in in-house number first: warehouse rent and rates, racking and MHE, software, warehouse labour (including benefits and management overhead), packaging consumables, carrier costs, returns processing, peak temp staff, and write-offs from picking errors. Compare that to a 3PL provider's per-order rate at your volume. For most businesses shipping 5,000+ orders a month, outsourcing wins before you factor in the operational gains. We can run that model with you during scoping.

Most businesses redeploy senior operations people into supplier, inventory or customer experience roles, where they add more strategic value. Warehouse-floor roles tend to wind down through natural attrition during the transition period, or with planned redundancy. We can advise on the timeline but the people decisions stay with you.

Typically four to eight weeks from contract signature to full go-live, depending on SKU count, order volume and how phased you want the handover to be. The longest stage is usually inventory transfer, which we plan around your sales cycle so you're never offline.

No. Packaging spec, insert rules, branded materials, dispatch SLAs and carrier preferences are all configured to your standards. Many brands find their packing consistency improves after outsourcing, because a 3PL provider runs to documented SOPs rather than relying on individual operators' memory.

Yes. Many first-time outsourcers start with a single sales channel (often Amazon or one marketplace) or a subset of SKUs, run it for a couple of months, and ramp up from there. It's a sensible way to de-risk the move.

That's one of the strongest cases for outsourced fulfilment. With a 3PL provider, you pay for the orders you ship, so a quiet month costs you less and a peak month is absorbed without you having to staff for it. The fixed-cost trap of in-house disappears.

Inventory transfer is usually phased over one to three weeks. We bring stock across in tranches, check it in, and switch order routing channel by channel as each tranche goes live. You keep shipping the whole way through.

You can. Service is month-to-month with no long-term lock-in. If you ever want to move back in-house, or to another provider, we'll help you transfer your stock out cleanly and provide the data exports you need.
