FAQ's
What are value-added services in logistics, and why do they matter?

Value-added services (VAS) in logistics go beyond basic warehousing and transportation. These services include packaging, labelling, kitting, quality checks, product customisation, and even light assembly. By leveraging value-added services, businesses can gain a competitive edge by creating a more memorable customer experience. For example, outsourcing VAS to a dedicated logistics partner enables brands to offer personalised packaging or pre-retail processing at scale while reducing turnaround times and costs.

How does value-added warehousing support supply chain agility?

Value-added warehousing integrates additional order processing functions such as labelling, repackaging and personalisation within the warehouse environment. This approach allows goods to be adapted at the warehouse level to meet specific customer or market requirements – such as the French Info-Tri regulation – without returning products to production sites. In this way, value-added warehousing can enhance supply chain agility, supporting businesses to launch new products, enter new markets or handle returns more efficiently, reducing lead times and operational costs.

What role do value-added services play in 3PL warehouse operations?

A 3PL warehouse offering value-added services is more than a storage facility. When value-added services are provided in a 3PL warehouse, businesses benefit from centralised operations, shortening fulfilment times and improving inventory turnover. In addition, integrating services such as product inspection, bundling and relabelling can enhance operational efficiency and reduce reliance on external vendors.

Are value-added services cost-effective for mid-sized businesses?

Yes, value-added services (VAS) are increasingly accessible and cost-effective for mid-sized businesses, especially when offered as part of bundled 3PL warehousing solutions. Rather than managing specialised tasks like product inserts, branded wrapping or promotional bundling in-house, businesses can outsource these activities directly from the warehouse. This streamlines operations, lowers overhead costs and enhances product presentation – without the need to hire additional internal staff or invest in specialised equipment.

How can value-added logistics services enhance the customer experience?

Value-added logistics services can directly influence how customers perceive a brand, enhancing the customer experience. Solutions such as customised packaging, faster returns handling and pre-assembled kits enable businesses to meet growing consumer demands for convenience, quality and personalisation. These services can enable brands to differentiate themselves from the competition by ensuring they remain relevant, responsive to market trends and capable of delivering exceptional customer experiences.

What are pick and pack fulfilment services, and why are they important?

Pick and pack fulfilment services involve selecting products from inventory (picking) and packaging them for shipment (packing). This process is critical for e-commerce businesses where orders are processed individually. A reliable fulfilment provider offering pick-and-pack services ensures all orders are accurate, well-packaged and shipped promptly, helping to boost customer satisfaction and loyalty, and minimise returns.

What’s the difference between logistics providers that offer pick and pack services versus traditional shipping solutions?

Logistics providers offering picking and packing services take care of more than just shipping; they cover the entire pre-shipment process, including product selection, order verification and secure packaging. Unlike general shipping providers, who primarily handle the transportation and delivery of goods, logistics providers that provide picking and packing services ensure that each order is accurately assembled and carefully packed to meet customer specifications. This is especially important for multi-item or fragile orders.

How does a pick and pack warehouse improve order efficiency?

A pick and pack warehouse is designed to optimise the speed and accuracy of order processing. Unlike traditional warehouses, which may prioritise bulk storage, pick and pack warehouses focus on high-speed item retrieval and order customisation. Logistics providers offering pick and pack warehouse services typically use zone picking, batch picking and automated sorting to streamline operations.

Why is warehouse picking and packing a priority for e-commerce?

In e-commerce, speed and accuracy are key. Warehouse picking and packing services ensure that products are correctly selected, securely packaged and shipped promptly. This is essential from a customer experience perspective, as mistakes during this phase can lead to incorrect shipments and costly returns. By outsourcing pick and pack fulfilment, businesses can focus on scaling their operations while relying on specialised providers to manage the complexities of day-to-day order processing efficiently.

Are picking and packing services scalable during peak sales periods?

Yes, pick and pack fulfilment services are highly scalable during peak sales periods such as holidays or promotional events. Established pick and pack fulfilment providers leverage flexible staffing and advanced automation tools to handle spikes in order volume efficiently, ensuring consistent fulfilment speed and accuracy with no compromise on service quality. This enables brands to scale up their operations smoothly, meeting and exceeding customer expectations during high-volume periods.
