💡 Location isn’t just a pin on the map – in fulfilment, it’s a competitive edge.

Where your 3PL is based can have a direct impact on delivery speed, shipping costs, and even customer satisfaction. From courier pickup windows to returns processing, geography quietly shapes how your business performs at scale.

✅ Lower courier rates
✅ Faster shipping across the UK
✅ Later order cut-off times
✅ Smoother returns from customers
✅ Reduced operational overhead

At 3PL, our North West hub was chosen for a reason – it puts our clients in reach of 90% of the UK population within 24 hours.

Keeping your stock and returns in sync across multiple sales channels shouldn’t feel like solving a puzzle blindfolded. 🧩

When you’re selling on Shopify, Amazon, TikTok Shop and maybe even in-store, managing returns and inventory in silos leads to overselling, delays, and a customer experience that’s anything but seamless.

Here’s what happens when you unify your fulfilment:

✅ Real-time stock updates across all platforms
✅ Returns processed and restocked faster
✅ No more manual spreadsheets or missed items
✅ Better forecasting and smoother operations

We’ve just published a new blog that breaks down exactly how omnichannel fulfilment brings everything together.

📦 Big news for Amazon FBA sellers – From 1 January 2026, Amazon will no longer offer in-house FBA prep or labelling services.

That means:

❌ No more barcode application
❌ No more poly-bagging or bubble-wrapping
❌ No more prep support before goods hit the fulfilment centre

From that point on, all inventory sent to Amazon must arrive fully prepped and compliant. If not, it could be rejected or damaged – and not reimbursed.

⏳ With just months to go, now’s the time for UK sellers to decide:

1️⃣ Set up in-house prep capabilities
2️⃣ Or partner with a trusted UK-based 3PL like 3P Logistics

We’ve been supporting Amazon sellers for years with FBA prep services – from kitting and labelling to routing and inspection.

Whether you’re already using our broader fulfilment services or just need a standalone prep solution, we’re here to help.
