Hi All - Any recommendations for warehousing and distribution centres please? Had a quick search and struggled to find any relevant posts but please point me in the direction if already covered.

My wife's online store (Shopify hosted) has outgrown our home and we're in desperate need of a distribution centre with the ability to handle the pack and post of a fashion business' stock (multiple brands, multiple sizes, varying packaging, ability to handle returns etc. etc.). Any recommendations before I rely on google searches and starting conversations with companies cold?

Cheers

My business used Anchor Storage based near Debenhams, Suffolk for 23 years.

Good family run business. Speak to Steve Britt owner and MD on 01728 860555.

We only moved on as we needed CFSP warehouse facilities.

We’ve put Shopify / Amazon / eBay into a few Fulfillment providers, one with SFP and one does fashion well - message me if you’d like a chat on it.

Give James & James a call:

https://www.ecommercefulfilment.com/

They'll do any setup / sizes / etc and also returns if need be.

You'll need barcodes if you haven't got them already. It'll ensure the right item goes out every time. We signed up to GS1 for our own but you can buy them in bulk for peanuts, on eBay etc.

Then a barcode printer to affix codes to packaging.

Your website will feed them directly so you don't have to do much at all after all that.

Do you know of providers within the UK who integrate with SAP as a source of orders?

But you may need a cloud based link
