Shipwire review - well worth considering for a fulfillment service provider

Using a fulfilment company can save three things: space, time and stress. The space that was once a garage but is now a makeshift inventory, the time that is taken up by incoming deliveries, packing, handling and shipping, and the stress that comes with managing such an operation. The biggest companies in the world rely on fulfilment companies to take care of all their product storage and shipping so that they can focus on managing and building their brand, Shipwire is a company that offers fulfilment specifically for the small and medium sized business entrepreneur.

Fulfilling volumes from 15-5000 products per month, Shipwire are able to take care of everything from taking delivery of stock to printing labels for packages. By signing up with Shipwire you are given a choice of warehouse to store your products, warehouses are located across the U.S, Canada, China and the U.K. Your website checkout will then be integrated seamlessly with Shipwire’s system. You can fully manage your operations through the Shipwire system, controlling orders and stock while receiving real-time shipping rates and inventory status.

Shipwire are able to determine the best carrier, service and packaging to ensure a package arrives safely at its destination and with orders processed and shipped the same day, fast efficient delivery is guaranteed. Customers are given tracking numbers for their products and full control of their order, allowing them to edit details or cancel where necessary. Personalized inserts can also be included in each any every order to enhance your marketing scope.

You do not pay anything to Shipwire until you start storing or shipping products from their warehouses, but you should be warned that when payments do start they are not cheap! You will probably need to sell high-margin or expensive products to get the most from Shipwire’s service, selling cheap products might see you struggling to meet the monthly service fees and still make a profit.
