3PL stands for third-party logistics, which refers to the process of outsourcing your eCommerce logistics to a third party. 3PL companies take care of warehousing, inventory management, fulfillment, giving you the tools and infrastructure of a much larger company. Fulfillment centers offer a complete fulfillment solution where you can store your merchandise. In addition to offering extra storage, they take care of the logistics, inventory management, ordering picking and processing, and packaging. They then take care of all of the delivery options and shipping. Think of the fulfillment center as a part of your supply chain, helping you control your inventory and freeing up more of your time for what you do best. Most fulfillment centers use an innovative pick and pack technology, and they’ll package your products exactly the way you wish.
