Got a question?

We've answered them below

What kind of beauty products do you ship?
We specialize in the shipping of all kinds of beauty products. Whether you want to ship make-up, hair products, skin-care, or anything else falling under the beauty and cosmetics umbrella, we have you covered.
Do you use the FIFO method?
At fulfilmentcrowd, we adopt the FIFO method (First-In-First-Out) as a fundamental part of our inventory management process. FIFO is an essential inventory management technique where the oldest items in our clients' inventory are given priority and sold or used first. This means that the goods or products that arrived earliest in our warehouses are the first to be shipped out to customers or utilized in production.
Why is FIFO important?

We understand the significance of implementing the FIFO method in inventory management and its benefits for our clients:

  1. Minimising Product Expiry: For businesses dealing with perishable or time-sensitive products, FIFO ensures that older items are dispatched first, significantly reducing the risk of products expiring on the shelves.

  2. Preventing Obsolescence: In industries where products undergo frequent updates or newer versions are released, FIFO helps avoid inventory becoming obsolete, mitigating the risk of unsellable stock.

  3. Optimising Storage and Holding Costs: By adhering to FIFO, we optimise storage space by moving older inventory first, resulting in reduced holding costs and maximising space utilisation efficiency.

  4. Enhancing Customer Satisfaction: Following the FIFO principle, we ship fresher products to customers, leading to increased customer satisfaction and loyalty.

Do you offer batch control?

We do indeed offer batch control. This approach is particularly useful when dealing with large quantities of orders or inventory items. Here's a breakdown of what batch control entails and its benefits:

  1. Grouping Orders: Batch control allows orders to be grouped together based on various criteria, such as geographic location, product type, or shipping method. This grouping enables efficient processing and reduces the complexity of handling individual orders separately.

  2. Streamlined Processing: By processing orders in batches, we can optimise workflows. Instead of picking, packing, and shipping each order independently, our team can handle multiple orders at once, leading to faster processing times and increased overall efficiency.

  3. Reduced Errors: Working with batches reduces the chances of errors during order fulfilment. Once a batch is set up, our team can double-check the accuracy of each order within the batch before processing. This reduces the risk of mixing up products or shipping the wrong items to customers.

  4. Inventory Management: Batch control is crucial for inventory management. It helps track the movement of items in and out of the warehouse, enabling better inventory control and preventing stockouts or overstock situations.

Do you provide support on post-Brexit restrictions?
Yes! We've paired with leading industry professionals who aid our clients on a daily basis with the legislative process to remove any barriers when it comes to transacting in the EU, ensuring a streamlined process from start to finish
Do you offer sustainable packaging?
We offer a variety of packaging options From bags to boxes, we've made a conscious effort to select the most sustainable options when it comes to packaging. Whether it's cardboard boxes or biodegradable and recycled mailing bags you're looking for, chances are we'll have an option to suit your requirements. Alternatively, we will happily accept any custom packaging you choose to source yourself and will ensure our teams are fully briefed on your packaging instructions and brand standards.
Do you integrate with TikTok?
Yes, we have a pre-built integration directly with Tik Tok. 52% of TikTok users actively seek out and explore new beauty items on the app*, so it's no surprise that it is a huge channel for beauty and cosmetics brands. We have a direct integration with TikTok, meaning you can connect your Tiktok shop within a matter of minutes, within the fulfilmentcrowd platform.
