With over 300,000 inhabitants, Augsburg is one of the three largest metropolises in Bavaria and is considered one of the most important industrial locations in southern Germany. Especially larger companies from the industrial sector have settled here due to good transport connections. In addition, many long-established companies can be found in Augsburg, some of which have centuries of corporate history there.
One of the most important logistic factors is the direct connection to the highway in direction of Munich and Stuttgart. Furthermore Augsburg has a modern international airport, which is becoming increasingly popular, especially for general cargo airfreight.
Branded cardboard boxes, individualized product packaging, automated shop connection and sustainable shipping? Many companies still think that this is only possible as long as fulfillment is handled in-house. Yet most independent fulfillment centres attach great importance to fulfilling individual customer wishes - unlike Amazon's FBA solution, for example. Nevertheless, it is important to pay attention to a few characteristics when choosing a fulfillment partner: Is the fulfillment service provider more specialized in fulfillment for medium-sized and large companies or in fulfillment for start-ups? Are the fulfillment costs really lower than with the in-house solution? Does the fulfillment service provider have an interface to my shop system? Only those who choose their fulfillment partner carefully will be happy in the long term. Warehousing1 is of course happy to help you find the right fulfillment provider for your company.

In order to ensure fast and error-free processing of shipments, it is necessary that all technical requirements are met to connect the shop to the logistics service provider's merchandise management system. This is usually done via an interface to the shop system on which the corresponding online shop is based. Users of different marketplaces such as Amazon and eBay can thus also integrate their dealer profile. If problems do occur or the customer is dissatisfied with his order, many service providers also take on customer service tasks, look after customer portals and offer call centres.
In order to generate a positive experience for the customer of an eCommerce shop beyond the product order, individualization, personalization and branding of the packages are very important. The simple picking and labelling of orders can be replaced by packing the products in tissue paper, decorative filling material, branded packaging material, branded adhesive tape, hand-written cards, flyers or stickers. And even laser engraving, digital printing, embossing and die-cutting are already among the many services offered by most fulfillment service providers.
The quality of your products is your top priority, but you can't check all goods yourself because the location of the fulfiller of your choice is too far away? This is no problem at all: from container unloading to palletising and quality control, all your wishes can be met according to your requirements. Apart from that, barcodes can be applied, goods can be packed in polybags and even repairs can be carried out. Finally, the entire returns management can also managed by the fulfillment provider.
Demand for fulfillment services fluctuates greatly due to seasonal factors. In the run-up to Christmas, for example, order volumes are higher, which can lead to price increases. January, in contrast, shows little demand and slight price reductions. A similar situation can be observed in the summer months. These periods can be regarded as a lull in eCommerce due to few shipments.
