Stationery fulfilment is when the processes involved with delivering online stationery orders to customers are outsourced to an external company known as a 3PL (third-party logistics) provider. These processes including picking, packing, and shipping, but can also encompass warehousing, inventory management and customer returns. The stationery fulfilment service from Zendbox can be applied to both B2C and B2B orders.
Many 3PL fulfilment providers can pick, pack and ship stationery and gifts using branded packaging. We offer the same service at Zendbox but with a difference – we work closely with stationery and gift brands to ensure products are presented beautifully inside the box and packaged securely so that they arrive at the customer’s doorstep in mint condition. We can also include inserts within each package to elevate the unboxing experience even further, which can be particularly valuable when shipping luxury stationery and gifts.
Every product we stock at our fulfilment centre(s) undergoes rigorous quality control checks to minimise the risk of a return. Unfortunately, however, returns are part and parcel of running an online store. We make it easy for customers to return their orders to our fulfilment centre. Our expert team checks each returned item for potential faults and damages, and processes those that cannot be resold according to your unique returns policy. Resaleable products are booked back into stock quickly so you can resell without delay.
Most businesses can use 3PL fulfilment services, but the many providers will typically have their own preference for the type and size of businesses they can fulfil orders for. At Zendbox, we generally partner with fast-growing, medium- to large-sized eCommerce businesses that are receiving a minimum of 20 orders per day.
Our EU fulfilment centres enable eCommerce businesses to ship stationery and gifts to Europe. However, Zendbox can ship to many other international destinations, including the US. Get in touch to find out where you can ship your stationery goods to.
