E-commerce was becoming more popular before COVID-19 hit. The crisis shifted that trend into overdrive, and research shows it’s not expected to slow down. Now, customers have come to expect that they can get just about anything delivered quickly.
To avoid leaving dollars in abandoned shopping carts, retailers and other businesses need to be ready to deliver on-demand. That means it may be worth taking a second look at your warehouse. While it used to be an exception, fulfilling orders directly from the warehouse can help make ultrafast delivery a reality by skipping the lead times and scheduling associated with traditional carriers and even in-house fleets.
But there’s a problem. Not every warehouse is set up to work so efficiently. That doesn’t mean they’re out of options. With crowdsourced delivery, businesses can tap into a nationwide network of independent drivers to offer fast, efficient, affordable and scalable fulfillment when and where
it’s needed.
