Beauty & Cosmetics Services
Whether a business is large or small, eCommerce has helped many brands sell directly to consumers like never before. eCommerce has helped cosmetics and beauty brands develop and also helped business owners achieve more with their company. By using order fulfilment services, these brands can focus more on their other business needs and can leave their order fulfilment in the hands of trusted fulfilment companies.
Our Beauty & Cosmetics Fulfilment Service
UK Fulfilment offers a dedicated beauty and cosmetics fulfilment service for fast-moving consumer products. This service operates separately from our traditional fulfilment services, allowing us to store and ship small lightweight products safely.
Our beauty and cosmetics fulfilment services:
Temperature-controlled storage
All beauty products and cosmetics can be stored in a temperature-controlled environment, separate from other products. This helps to keep them in prime condition and prevents cross-contamination.
Choice of stock management options
We offer both First Expired, First Out (FEFO) and First in, First Out (FIFO) stock rotation options. These can be set for individual products allowing you to choose the most appropriate method for perishable and non-perishable goods.
Branded packaging
Branding is one of the most important aspects of any successful direct-to-consumer beauty brand. We offer a range of bespoke branding solutions including branded environmentally friendly packaging, re-boxing and labelling.
Subscription box servicing
Along with our standard fulfilment services, we can also offer subscription box servicing. This allows you to offer a monthly subscription box to your customers. Just tell us what products you want to put in and we’ll do the rest for you.
How Does It Work & Why Is It Unique?
We offer the following unique six-step fulfilment service tailored to the needs of beauty and cosmetic brands:
Step 1: Receiving inventory
We receive your products from the manufacturer or importer. They are inspected for damage and counted to ensure the correct amount was received. SKUs and barcodes are then entered into our stock management system before being sent for storage.
Step 2: Storage
Products received for storage are first organised based on the stock rotation method chosen. Both FIFO and FEFO rotation methods can be used. The products are then stored in a secure temperature-controlled environment ready for picking.
Step 3: Order processing
When orders come in they are processed by our StoreFeeder management system. We can integrate processing with your shopping cart software, eBay and Amazon platforms. Alternatively, we can receive orders manually through a CSV file.
Step 4: Picking & packing
Once processed, orders are sent to the picking team who select products based on the stock rotation method selected. From here then sent to the packing station where they are checked for accuracy and expertly packaged ready for delivery.
Step 5: Shipping
Once packaged, the completed orders are ready for shipping. Here at UK Fulfilment, our ecommerce shipping solutions provide companies with a range of efficient and affordable shipping options including standard, next day, and recorded delivery from all the major shipping companies.
Step 6: Returns processing
No fulfilment service would be complete without offering an effective and affordable ecommerce returns management service. We offer complete returns management including damaged product replacement, refund processing and restocking.
