You want a provider that offers increased efficiency and the ability to scale as you grow while providing rapid order turn-around. The traditional warehouse model just can’t do that. But Think Logistics’ robotic fulfillment can. What you get is a full solution that delivers state-of-the-art automation from day one while mitigating the traditional, upfront capital costs associated with fixed automation.
Our solution scales as your business grows ensuring you’re not paying for infrastructure that you don’t need.
By bringing the shelf to the associate we can process orders faster and facilitate innovative solutions such as our SmartMerge cross-dock & Drop-Ship Vendor merge capability.
As a world-class logistics service provider we bring a forward-thinking approach to a range of industry verticals.
Regardless of whether you ship small or large items, expensive or inexpensive items, durable goods or apparel, if your business ships directly to your customer then you understand that order fulfillment is much more than just the delivery of a box. We understand that every order shipped is really an extension of your brand’s promise to your customer.
Our integrated returns management service & value added service capabilities include support for product assortments, gifting, gift-cards, poly-bagging, kitting & bundling, de-tagging & tagging to name a few.
Drop Ship Vendors (DSVs) offer a great way for retailers to quickly and easily add to an assortment. Operationally however drop-shipping can quickly drive higher freight and customer support costs when orders are split between multiple warehouses. In addition to higher cost it can be difficult if not impossible to deliver a consistent brand experience across a network of different shippers.
We’ve applied the same innovative thinking that changed the warehouse model to the drop ship model. With SmartMerge retailers, gain the ability to place daily consolidated orders with their DSVs driving economic order volumes resulting in freight and fulfillment cost savings for the retailer. These consolidated orders are received directly into ‘our Kiva system and are immediately available for shipment. Received inventory can then be merged, in real-time, with in-stock inventory or held momentarily pending the arrival of other inbound DSV shipments.
As non-stocked items are received our state-of-the-art warehouse management system will recognize orders as available for completion allowing for rapid order fulfillment.
