Key Takeaways: The Omni-Channel Fulfillment Network

Joe and Esther discussed the omni-channel fulfillment network …..and with the increasingly high expectations of brands and their customers, it must be a NETWORK of fulfillment nodes located close to the end customer.
For ecommerce brands, the bar has risen as ecommerce customers now expect a superior direct-to-consumer (DTC) experience for the following reasons:
- Amazon created and delivers a wonderful customer experience that leverages both technology and operational excellence.
- Same-day and next-day deliveries are common and pretty important because consumers are buying different products online. Customers are buying groceries, and consumer packaged goods via direct-to-consumer (DTC) and delivering it in 3 days just won't cut it.
- The end customer is using intuitive consumer technology like DoorDash, Uber, Zillow, Shypt, etc. and they are unwilling to go back to clunky, difficult to use technology.
During COVID, we learned that supply chains and logistics networks can be brittle and overly sensitive to market and economic changes.
Because of the raised customer expectations and lessons from COVID, ecommerce brands are looking for omni-channel fulfillment partners who are able to deliver resilience, flexibility, and a nationwide network – a network that is able to provide same-day, next-day shipping.
Flowspace connects a nationwide network of fulfillment warehouses all using Flowspace's state-of-the-art technology. This approach provides the best of both worlds, a world-class technology company partnered with a vetted network of fulfillment companies.
The Flowspace platform seamlessly integrates with online stores and sales channels, providing access to a nationwide network that powers fast, reliable, omnichannel fulfillment.
