Whether you’re looking to start a new subscription box business or add a direct-to-consumer strategy to your existing model, you need a logistics and fulfillment platform that will get your products where they need to be. Unfortunately, it’s not that easy. Dedicated market research, relationship-building with suppliers, launching and marketing your offering; none of it means anything if your product doesn’t reach your customer. As your business grows, you’ll find that your fulfillment and shipping needs will also expand.
A third-party logistics (3PL) provider can help your business meet your customers’ demand by providing a rock-solid supply chain to handle the fulfillment and distribution of your subscription box. However, not all 3PLs are created equal; businesses relying on 3PL providers need to ensure they have the knowledge, experience, and tools to support their business goals.

Subscription boxes and other direct-to-consumer services aren’t new. Nonetheless, many 3PL providers still lack the necessary systems to manage a direct-to-consumer supply chain effectively. These issues often start at the top, with many providers unable to seamlessly integrate their inventory and fulfillment systems with their customers’ business.

Partnering with Birkby gives you access to a complete supply chain and fulfillment system to bring your products to market.
