Rappeler conducts outgoing shipments through various platforms. Around 80% are B2C shipments, while approximately 20% are B2B. Additionally, we request combined packaging based on order quantities.
How was logistics previously managed, and what prompted the change in logistics procedures?
Previously, another 4PL company managed our e-commerce fulfillment. However, miscommunication was the primary reason for the change. In the logistics industry, prompt responses to frequent changes are crucial. Regrettably, the previous company lacked real-time communication, causing delays in resolving issues like missing orders and inventory discrepancies, which significantly eroded our trust in their logistics services.
