Transitioning to a New 3PL Without Disruption

Switching to an alternative third-party logistics (3PL) provider can be done smoothly with a clear view of current constraints and thoughtful planning. The priority is to map the fulfillment activities that are critical to your business—especially for beauty products, where product condition is paramount.

Storage & Handling Standards (Beauty)

  • Store goods in their original case/shipper with flaps closed to prevent contamination or adulteration.
     
  • Inventory in the DC should be clean and dust-free.
     
  • Damaged unit cartons or defects must be pulled from active inventory and routed to a quarantine/disposition location.
     

Value Proposition of a Change
A 3PL transition should deliver measurable value to both the brand and the consumer. Expect improved quality, shorter cycle/transit times, and potential transportation cost reductions through better routing and execution.

Communication Cadence
Successful transitions reduce day-to-day firefighting. Replace ad-hoc calls with weekly, agenda-driven check-ins focused on strategy, promotions, KPIs, and continuous improvement.

Customer Experience at Delivery
Consumers should receive undented, clean outer shippers and neatly packed products with no damage to unit cartons. This is the final proof point of a well-run distribution program.

Your On-the-Ground Partner
Choose a partner whose interests align with yours and who can represent you directly with warehouses and carriers. We can act as your boots-on-the-ground representative in the U.S., managing set-up, audits, SOPs, and ongoing performance.

U.S. D2C Fulfillment: Hitting 2-Day Coverage

A growing U.S. trend is to partner with a 3PL that can deliver 2-day shipping to ~95% of regions for D2C orders. This is often achievable with a single, centrally located facility along the Utah–Dallas–Fort Worth–Chicago corridor. Multiple sites aren’t necessary unless (a) order volume exceeds a

U.S. D2C Fulfillment: Hitting 2-Day Coverage

A growing U.S. trend is to partner with a 3PL that can deliver 2-day shipping to ~95% of regions for D2C orders. This is often achievable with a single, centrally located facility along the Utah–Dallas–Fort Worth–Chicago corridor. Multiple sites aren’t necessary unless (a) order volume exceeds a single FC’s capacity or (b) you want to push delivery times even faster. Positioning within this region can also lower transportation costs.

Market Shift Since 2021

The landscape has changed markedly since 2021, when labor shortages and tight warehouse capacity led many providers to decline startup clients. Since then:

  • New facilities have expanded available space.
     
  • Robotics/automation have increased throughput and enabled near-continuous picking.
     
  • Many providers have shortened or simplified contract terms, reducing barriers to entry for smaller brands.

3PL Shortlist & Onboarding Support

We help you identify and select two 3PL providers that meet your D2C and B2B requirements. I’ll draft a concise requirements brief, contact qualified providers, share SKU dimensions, volume/forecast, and service levels, and collect pricing and capabilities. From there, I’ll prepare a side-by-side value-vs-cost comparison for your decision.

You can handle onboarding internally or have me lead as needed—contracts/SOW, SOPs, labels/packaging specs, WMS integrations, and go-live checklists. As demand grows and new retailers come online, I ensure the fulfillment center meets all retailer compliance (carton/labeling, GS1/SSCC, ASN/EDI, routing guides) and maintains audit-ready operations.
