As Fulfillment Complexity Mounts, a Little Air Goes a Long Way

Customers sure are hard to please. Not only do they want things delivered faster and cheaper, they also want a greater variety: More  products, more variations on existing products, more accessories and add-ons. More, more more.

Getting to the Doorstep: Five Secondary Packaging Predictions

John Wolf

on
Monday, February 20, 2017 - 1:30pm

As e-commerce dominates the retail landscape, secondary packaging is more important than ever. All the fleece pullovers, Fitbits, and K-cups you order online have to make their way to your home somehow.  That journey can be smooth and easy or fraught with damage. You won’t know which path your parcel took until it shows up at your doorstep. Pass or fail?

A Fulfilling View of the Future

Vicki Case

Before consumers click the checkout button to complete their online orders, they’ve likely contemplated the shipping options available to them: How much will it cost? How fast will the order arrive? How difficult and expensive will returns be?  

But few of us will spend much time wondering exactly how these orders will get to our doors. Where do the products come from exactly? Who or what packs it up? Does it travel by air, land, or sea?

We Can See the Future – No Really!

Ken Chrisman

Monday, October 3, 2016 - 7:30am

Believe it or not, being in the packaging business is a lot like being an economist. We analyze consumer trends, we dissect the microeconomics of growth markets, and we track even the tiniest shifts in labor statistics or fuel availability in countries around the world.

Why?

Because we need to be ready for whatever comes next. Ready to be the conduit, the conductor, the conveyor of whatever commerce the world requires.

We need to be able to see into the future and be there when it arrives.

It's Official: There's No Such Thing as Free Shipping

Friday, August 19, 2016 - 9:00am

There’s no such thing as free shipping.

Yes, true, you could go to almost any of your favorite retailer’s websites right now and get what you want sent directly to your front door without paying a penny more than you would in the store.

 But it comes at a cost - and not just a financial one.

Right-Sizing is Critical as Carriers Increase Fees for Oversize Packages

Ken Chrisman

Thursday, June 2, 2016 - 2:30am

We operate in an economy where speed is king. Commerce moves so quickly - from one-click orders to next-day shipping - it’s easy to get caught up in the momentum and begin to assume that everything in our world moves equally as fast. 

But the reality is, some things are still a slow burn. While some trends appear seemingly overnight (unboxing experience videos, meal delivery services, same-day deliveries) others take their time, rippling through our global supply chain one pond at a time.
