Local fulfillment is an effective strategy to break into an international market with fast, easy, and inexpensive shipping to local customers. Finding the right 3PL to warehouse your inventory and help with fulfillment, on the other hand, can be a challenge, especially if you're looking for the best pricing without sacrificing on the quality of service provided.
Kanary knows how to find the perfect 3PL for our clients at costs that fit their budget. We can find 3PLs that specialize in specific product types and in the specific services our clients may need. Whether you want to offer expedited shipping to local customers in an international market, or you just want more cost-effective warehousing storage, Kanary can help.
Kanary's 3PL consulting services are catered to each client, but here is a general process of what you can expect when you partner with us:
Our experts will research 3PL warehouses that may be a good fit for our client. We'll solicit price quotes directly from providers, and we'll review those quotes with clients. Our cost comparison analysis makes the pros and cons of each 3PL clear, so you can make a confident choice.
When you think there may be a good 3PL fit, Kanary will negotiate directly with the 3PL on your behalf. Once an agreement is made, Kanary will continue to act as a liaison between our clients and their chosen 3PLs.
After you've made your 3PL choice, Kanary oversees warehousing activities. Our specific services will vary depending on the client, but some examples of what we can do include:
Quality issues can arise from how a 3PL handles your product, and Kanary will be positioned to identify and resolve quality problems quickly. For example, if your products are damaged in transit because a 3PL uses low-quality boxes, we may ask them to double-box inventory or provide other protective measures to insure your products remain damage-free.
Kanary specializes in helping clients make the most of Amazon FBA while avoiding Amazon's high warehousing prices. We know how to make use of Amazon FBA services without incurring unreasonable warehousing fees, and we can find you cost-effective 3PL warehouses for general inventory storage.
Our consulting fees are calculated at an hourly rate, and our clients have the freedom to choose how much, or how little, of our consulting services they want to use. For example, a client may only need help with negotiating prices with a 3PL provider, while other clients may need the full-suite of services that we offer. Just let Kanary know what you need, and we'll get it done.
