Looking for good communication?
We are class leading with a dedicated Client Services Team to help you with all your daily contact, a support ticket process for returns and ongoing projects as well as our query processes to speak directly to our picking teams about order specifics. We need you to be able to communicate on all levels so that you can deliver your ecommerce and promotional books and publications to your clients.
Book and Publication Order Processing and Integrations
We operate via a central online platform that will integrate into your sales channels and processes enabling us to pulldown or have your staff create orders, allocating stock and helping steer the urgency of the orders where required.
Need to manage lot and batch information in your order processing? Not a problem, our online tools will help you choose batched products and report/notify correctly on expiry dates.
Your staff can login anytime (if allowed) to manage inventory levels, process orders and communicate directly to the picking teams to help with order specifics.
We operate at 98% same day dispatch on all our orders on our system. The 2% are broken down to larger more complex multi-site rollouts and customer delayed dispatches to hold back on shipping until the receiver is ready for your publication shipments.

Climbingvan is a resource for helping people with self-build van conversions. In 2021 Charlie and Dale wrote their book, The Van Conversion Bible, which explains exactly how to convert a campervan.
"As we live full-time in our own van and work remotely from the road, it's not possible for us to manage our own fulfilment.
CBF help us to get our book into the hands of our customers all across the country, as well as fulfilling our wholesale orders to larger suppliers.
We appreciate their flexibility and the bespoke service they are able to offer us.
The world of ecommerce was new to us, and the team at CBF have been really helpful in making everything possible for us, and are always friendly and quick to respond."
