Running a pick and pack operation that consistently hits the mark is easier said than done. Between managing your workforce, keeping up with incoming orders, and making sure every order goes out the door on time, the pressure never really lets up. And when things go wrong, the knock-on effect will be felt throughout your entire supply chain.

That’s where our pick and pack services come in. At FuturePro Outsourcing, we can provide fully managed pick and pack solutions that are built around the specific needs of your operation. Get in touch with us today, and let’s have a chat about how we can help streamline your fulfilment operations.

Fast & Accurate Order Fulfilment for Growing Businesses

As your business grows and starts to handle a larger volume of orders, so will the complexity of your fulfilment operation. What might have worked when you or your team were processing a handful of orders a day can quickly become a bottleneck that causes delays and ends up hurting customer satisfaction.

At FPL Outsourcing, we designed our pick and pack solutions with growing businesses in mind. That way, no matter where your business is currently in its growth journey, we will make sure your fulfilment is built to handle whatever comes next, without any of the pains that often come with scaling operations.

How Our Pick & Pack Process Works

At FPL Outsourcing, we follow a carefully refined process that allows our on-the-ground workforce to process incoming orders quickly and accurately, regardless of volume. Here is how our pick and pack process works step by step:

  • Step 1 - Receive Order: As soon as an order comes in through your e-commerce platform, our system will pick it up, and our team will get to work straight away.
  • Step 2 - Picking: Every item is picked from its designated place in our facility and is checked against the original order to ensure accuracy.
  • Step 3 - Packing: Once all the goods within an order have been picked, they will be packed carefully and in line with your specific requirements.
  • Step 4 - Dispatch: With the order packed and ready to go, it is dispatched via your customer’s preferred shipping method.

Pick & Pack Solutions Tailored to Your Business

At FuturePro Outsourcing, we offer a couple of different pick and pack solutions that you can take advantage of. To make sure you get the most out of our services, each solution will be fully tailored to the specific needs of your business. In the sections below, you can read more about the different pick and pack fulfilment services we offer.

E-commerce Fulfilment

In an industry as demanding as e-commerce, speed and accuracy when fulfilling orders are both key to keeping your customers happy and staying competitive in your market. To help ecommerce businesses keep their orders moving efficiently, we designed our fully managed fulfilment service, which can be tailored to the specific needs of your business.

Retail & Wholesale Orders

Retail and wholesale fulfilment come with their own set of challenges. From strict retailer compliance to managing bulk orders across multiple SKUs, there’s a lot that can go wrong if the right processes aren’t in place. At FPL Outsourcing, our team has the experience and infrastructure to handle retail and wholesale pick and pack operations of all shapes and sizes while ensuring every order is accurate and goes out on time, every time.

Subscription Box Fulfilment

As your subscriber base grows, managing the fulfilment of your subscription box business in-house can become overwhelming and consume a significant portion of your time. At FPL Outsourcing, we can handle the entire fulfilment process on your behalf - from picking and packing each box to making sure all orders go out based on your set schedule.

B2B Distribution

When you deal with other businesses, orders are often larger, the delivery deadlines tend to be tighter, and the consequences of getting things wrong can have a direct impact on your business relationships. At FPL Outsourcing, we understand the demands of picking and packing for the B2B sector. That’s why we have the necessary processes in place to make sure every order is fulfilled accurately, compliantly, and on time.

High-Volume Seasonal Fulfilment

A sudden influx of orders that you’re not prepared to handle can lead to major bottlenecks and delays in the fulfilment of orders. To make sure that never happens, when you partner with us, you’ll benefit from our scalable fulfilment infrastructure, which can be ramped up or scaled back as per the demands of your operation.

Why Businesses Outsource Pick & Pack Warehousing

Businesses outsource their pick and pack warehousing operations for a variety of different reasons. Some businesses end up reaching a point where the cracks in their current setup are starting to show, and the only way to fix them is to outsource their operations to a third-party pick and pack warehouse service provider.

For others, that decision is reached following a supply chain consultancy with an expert. Other reasons why businesses across the UK outsource their picking and packing operations include:

  • Order volumes have grown beyond what their current operation can handle
  • Too many picking and packing errors are being made
  • Recruiting and retaining reliable warehouse staff is becoming an ongoing issue
  • Their current setup cannot scale quickly enough during peak seasons
  • They lack the infrastructure and processes needed to keep up with demand

Technology-Driven Warehouse Fulfilment

Without the right technologies and systems in place, even the most experienced fulfilment team will only get you so far. To make sure our warehouse fulfilment services are as efficient and impactful as possible, we place technology at the heart of everything we do.

To give you an example, one benefit of the warehouse management technology we use allows you to have real-time visibility over your whole inventory. Instead of browsing through endless spreadsheets, you get a bird’s-eye view of everything that’s going on in one place.

We also use technology to automate order tracking, minimise the risk of picking errors, and keep every stage of the fulfilment process running as smoothly as possible.

Flexible Pick & Pack Warehousing That Scales With Demand

One of the biggest challenges of managing a fulfilment operation in-house is having the flexibility to scale up or down as demand changes. Hiring additional staff and putting new processes in place takes time, and when demand spikes, time is the only thing you don’t have.

At FPL Outsourcing, our pick and pack warehousing solutions are built to flex efficiently alongside the demands of your business. When you partner with us, you’ll never find yourself in a position where demand outpaces your ability to fulfil incoming orders - because we’ll take care of everything on your behalf.
