Most enterprise brands pick a 3PL the hard way

What enterprise brands ask
before submitting a bid.
What is Fulfilment.com?
Fulfilment.com is a platform designed to match your brand with the right fulfillment provider, based on your products, volumes, and goals. This ensures operational alignment from day one, and enables you to make faster, more informed decisions that support long-term business growth.
How much does your RFP and tender management service cost?
Our entire consultation and support process is completely free for your brand. We are compensated by the 3PL provider that wins your business through the bid process, ensuring our goals are aligned with finding you the best possible long-term partner.
Why should we use fulfilment.com instead of managing the tender process ourselves?
Managing a large-scale logistics tender is incredibly time-consuming. We save you hundreds of hours by leveraging our expert knowledge, proprietary data, and a pre-vetted network. This speeds up the process, reduces your risk, and ultimately leads to a better-negotiated contract with the perfect partner.
Can you find a fulfillment partner in a specific country or region?
Absolutely. Whether your business is based in the UK and expanding into the EU, or based in the US and entering the UK market (for example), our extensive global network has you covered. We can provide vetted fulfillment partners in any location to match your exact operational needs.
How long does a typical 3PL tender process take?
While it varies depending on complexity, a typical end-to-end tender process, from gathering initial requirements to signing the final contract, usually takes between three and six months. Our structured process is designed to shorten this timeline and keep it as efficient as possible.
How is confidentiality maintained during the private tender process?
Protecting your confidentiality and competitive advantage is paramount. Our private tender is an invitation-only process. Your brand's identity and detailed requirements are only shared with the select, pre-qualified 3PLs on the final shortlist, ensuring your strategic plans remain private.
