What Is Pick and Pack Fulfilment?
If you operate an ecommerce business, one of the most time-consuming parts of running your operation can be preparing customer orders for shipment.
Pick and pack fulfilment is a process where a warehouse team receives customer orders, selects the required inventory items, packages them appropriately and dispatches them to customers.
Rather than manually packing orders yourself, a fulfilment provider handles the process for you.
How Pick and Pack Works
1. Inventory arrives
Products arrive and are received into a warehouse inventory system.
2. Inventory is stored
Items are allocated to pallet locations, shelves, cartons or bins depending on product type.
3. Orders enter the system
Orders can flow automatically from Shopify, WooCommerce and other ecommerce platforms.
4. Products are picked
Warehouse staff select the correct inventory items required for the order.
5. Products are packed
Orders are packaged using suitable materials before dispatch.
6. Orders are shipped
Orders are sent directly to customers Australia-wide.
