3PL: Choosing A Fulfillment Center

Learn how to choose a Fulfillment Center that meets your 3PL expectations.

3PL Best Practices

 

 

 

Your customers couldn’t care less about third party logistics. If asked, most of them couldn’t say what “3PL” stands for. But they certainly have an opinion about your fulfillment center’s performance. Oh, yeah. And they’re happy to share that opinion with friends, family, and people they’ve never met via reviews and social media.

 

So you’d better keep your customers in mind when choosing a 3PL partner.

 

How can you identify the right 3PL fulfillment center?

Customers expect your back-end logistics to be:
  • Efficient
  • Accurate
  • Swift

 

But your fulfillment partner also has to be spot-on when it comes to protecting your inventory and your company’s and customers’ data. Is that too much to ask? For many fulfillment companies, unfortunately, the answer is yes. If your expectations are high, you need the best 3PL partner – a partner that offers comprehensive, customizable services and an unswerving commitment to delivering an exceptional customer experience on your behalf.

 

Two tools to help you find that right 3PL partner

Perhaps you didn’t realize 3PL could do so much for your company and your customers. Grading your current logistics efforts will help you see what you’ve been missing. This quiz makes it easy to do that. With a clear picture of what you need and what’s possible, you can move forward.

 

There is a lot to consider when choosing a fulfillment center. Our free e-book explains the factors you should look for, including:

  • People
  • Facilities
  • Comprehensive service capabilities
  • Safety and security protocols
  • Customization opportunities
  • Proactive recommendations for improvement
  • High touch, hands-on approach

 

Getting each order to the right customer at the right time without mistakes is good work. But a great logistics partner does not see their work as merely filling orders correctly. They see themselves as a true partner helping to grow your business. They know they are the last people to touch each order before your customer sees it, so every detail has to be exactly right.
