Fulfillment House

A fulfillment house is a specialized third-party logistics provider that offers a comprehensive range of services designed to assist businesses in managing the storage, packaging, and shipment of their products, particularly for goods imported from outside the EU. These services are critical for companies that do not have the resources or infrastructure to handle large volumes of inventory or the complexities of order fulfillment themselves.

The primary functions of a fulfillment house include:

Fulfillment houses play a crucial role in the supply chain, particularly for e-commerce businesses, by ensuring that products are delivered to customers promptly and in good condition. They enable businesses to scale operations flexibly, handle seasonal fluctuations in demand, and expand into new markets without the need for significant capital investment in logistics infrastructure. Additionally, by managing the complexities related to customs and regulatory compliance for goods imported from outside the EU, fulfillment houses help businesses navigate international trade regulations efficiently.
