Solutions for Book and Media Distribution
Optimize Your Fulfillment Process
Consumers can access more books, music, and movies than ever before. Online ordering has changed the industry, allowing companies to provide customers with a broader selection and faster order fulfillment. While this is great for book lovers, it also creates challenges for a distributor’s consumer goods logistics process.
Common Challenges
- Labor shortages and high turnover rates
- Fast expansion
- Omni channel ordering demand
- Large inventories
- Space constraints
- Complex shipping demands
- Books can only be sold if they are perfect in shape
Retail bookstores and wholesalers must streamline their warehousing and distribution centers to stay competitive. This involves creating a seamless material handling process, from receipt of inbound goods to outbound shipping. It also requires strict inventory management and storage solutions.
