Background:

A prominent brand in the Baby goods industry faced persistent challenges with inventory management, frequently experiencing stockouts and struggling to meet sales projections. Despite strong demand for their products, the brand’s inability to maintain adequate inventory levels hindered their ability to capitalize on market opportunities and satisfy customer demand.

Challenge:

The brand encountered significant challenges with inventory management, including frequent stockouts and an inability to keep up with sales projections. Traditional fulfillment options were insufficient, and finding a suitable 3PL in Australia proved challenging due to the preference for fulfillment services over storage-only solutions.

Solution:

AMZOS stepped in to address the brand’s inventory management challenges by identifying a flexible 3PL provider in Australia. Rather than opting for traditional fulfillment services, AMZOS sought out a solution that focused solely on storing the brand’s inventory and forwarding it to Amazon warehouses as needed. This approach allowed the brand to maintain control over their inventory while leveraging the logistical support of a third-party provider.

Implementation:

AMZOS conducted extensive research and negotiations to identify a 3PL provider in Australia that aligned with the brand’s specific needs. After careful evaluation, a partnership was established with a flexible 3PL that agreed to act solely as a storage unit for the brand’s inventory, without requiring fulfillment services. AMZOS coordinated the logistics of transporting inventory to the 3PL’s facility and managed the inventory flow between the 3PL and Amazon warehouses to ensure seamless operations.

Results:

The implementation of the new supply chain solution led to significant improvements for the brand:

Improved Inventory Management: The brand was able to maintain optimal inventory levels and minimize stockouts, ensuring they could meet customer demand and capitalize on sales opportunities.
Enhanced Flexibility: By partnering with a flexible 3PL provider, the brand gained greater control over their inventory and fulfillment processes, allowing them to adapt to changing market conditions and customer needs more effectively.
Cost Savings: The streamlined supply chain solution resulted in cost savings for the brand, as they no longer had to rely on expensive expedited shipping methods to replenish inventory at Amazon warehouses.
