Efficient and streamlined supply chain management: How our 3PL services can help your business optimise their supply chain processes, reduce costs, and improve efficiency.

In today's competitive business world, supply chain management is crucial to the success of any company. An efficient and streamlined supply chain process can reduce costs, improve efficiency and ultimately, enhance customer satisfaction. As a business owner, you may be looking for ways to optimise your supply chain processes, and this is where CBF Fulfilment can help. Based in Gloucester, we provide third-party logistics (3PL) services that can help you achieve your supply chain goals.

What is 3PL?

Before we dive into the benefits of 3PL services, let's define what it is. 3PL stands for third-party logistics, which refers to outsourcing logistics and supply chain management activities to a third-party provider. This provider will manage your warehousing, transportation, distribution, and other logistics needs.

How can CBF Fulfilment help you optimise your supply chain?

CBF Fulfilment provides a range of 3PL services that can help businesses optimise their supply chain processes. Here are some of the ways we can help:

  1. Warehousing and Inventory Management: Our state-of-the-art warehousing facility provides ample space to store your products. Our online inventory management system can keep track of your stock levels and ensure that your products are always in stock, helping you to avoid stockouts.
  2. Order Fulfilment: Our order fulfilment services include picking and packing, labelling, and shipping your products to your customers. We can handle large volumes of orders, allowing you to focus on other aspects of your business. All are integrated into your sales marketplaces and websites. Polling for orders every 15-30 minutes we dispatch all e-commerce orders the same day.
  3. Transport and Distribution: Our transport and distribution services ensure that your products are delivered to your customers in a timely and cost-effective manner. We have partnerships with leading logistics providers, which allows us to offer competitive rates. We integrate into most major couriers, pallet networks and the Royal Mail to manage all sizes of consignments.
  4. Returns Management: Returns management can be time-consuming and costly. We can handle your returns management, reducing the burden on your business and improving your customer's experience.

Testimonial: alya skin. - Cosmetics & Beauty

"We assigned CBF Fulfilment as our third party logistics company for UK orders 2 years ago.

They have been nothing short of amazing to work with, they are extremely quick to despatch orders and have a team that are always so willing to help when needed.

As an ecommerce business owner that has worked with multiple 3PL companies and can safely say that CBF Fulfilment has been the best we have ever worked with in all the years."

Testimonial: Climbingvan - Books and Publication

"We run Climbingvan, a resource for helping people with self-build van conversions. Last year we wrote our 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."

Testimonial: Lola + Blake - Clothing & Accessories

"I’ve been really pleased with the service I have received from CBF. Each business is unique, and mine certainly has a lot of personalisation options and additions that customers request. CBF worked to implement these and find solutions to ensure that my brand remained as personal as when I individually wrapped and sent each order myself from my dining room table! Recent reviews from customers have remained positive with special mentions to the quality of the luxury gift wrap and the nice touch of personal notes."

Testimonial: Dodo Pad - Books & Publication

"Moving to CBF has enabled us to improve our service to our own eCommerce customers – next day delivery and orders always despatched on time with full tracking – as well as navigate increasingly complex international shipping.
We are a small business with a peak at Christmas. CBF has given us the flexibility we needed, which was not possible when we were managing fulfilment in house."
