We'll make the intro
Choose your preferred 3PL and we'll make the introduction so you can begin negotiations, form a partnership, and start scaling.
Heavy freight & bulky storage
Standard warehouse shelving and typical parcel couriers are simply not built for 15kg bags of dog food or massive, awkwardly shaped scratching posts. A pet-specialist 3PL has the heavy-duty floor storage required for bulk items and leverages pre-negotiated freight contracts to ship extremely heavy goods cost-effectively. They also use reinforced, double-walled boxes to ensure heavy kibble bags do not burst open and spill everywhere in the courier network.
Strict food safety & batch tracking
Just like human food, premium pet nutrition, raw food, and supplements have strict shelf lives and require careful tracing. A specialist partner uses advanced warehouse software to strictly monitor expiry dates and batch codes. They automatically use First Expiring, First Out (FEFO) picking logic, guaranteeing your oldest stock ships first so owners never receive stale treats, while keeping you legally compliant and prepared in the rare event of a manufacturer recall.
Subscription box & bundle kitting
The pet industry thrives on recurring revenue, from essential monthly flea treatments to bespoke enrichment toy boxes. A specialist 3PL seamlessly integrates with your subscription software to automatically dispatch these recurring orders without a single delay, keeping hungry pets happy. They also expertly kit assorted treats, toys, and accessories into premium, branded mailers, ensuring your loyal subscribers get a delightful unboxing experience every single month.
What is pet supplies fulfilment?
Pet supplies fulfilment covers the storage, picking, packing and delivery of products such as pet food, treats, toys, accessories and grooming products. Depending on your requirements, a 3PL may also provide subscription fulfilment, kitting and specialist handling for heavy or bulky products.
How much does pet fulfilment cost?
Costs depend on factors including order volumes, product size and weight, SKU count, storage requirements, packaging and delivery destinations. A 50 kg bag of pet food, for example, will have different fulfilment requirements from a small accessory.
Can a 3PL handle heavy pet products?
Yes. Some 3PLs specialise in heavier or bulky products and have suitable storage, handling and delivery arrangements. This can be particularly important for large bags of food, litter, crates and other bulky pet supplies.
Can a 3PL fulfil pet food?
Yes. A suitable provider can store and fulfil pet food, treats and other nutritional products, provided its facilities and processes meet the requirements of the products being handled. Ask about storage conditions, batch tracking and expiry-date management.
Can pet food 3PLs track expiry dates?
Many 3PLs can track batch and expiry information through their warehouse management systems. If shelf life is important to your products, ask whether the provider supports FEFO stock rotation and can provide the traceability you need.
Can a 3PL handle pet food recalls?
A suitable 3PL may be able to support recall processes through batch and inventory traceability. Ask how quickly they can identify affected stock, quarantine it and provide the information needed to support a recall.
Can a pet supplies 3PL fulfil internationally?
Many 3PLs offer international fulfilment, although available markets and shipping options vary. If you're selling overseas, check that your provider can handle your target destinations and the product-specific shipping requirements that may apply.
Can a pet 3PL handle subscription boxes?
Yes. Depending on the provider, services can include recurring order fulfilment, kitting, bundling and branded subscription packaging. Check that the 3PL can integrate with your subscription platform and manage changes to recurring orders.
