Fulfillment for Start-ups

One less worry: We assist start-ups with perfect fulfillment as they grow

You know the scenario: your start-up was once a good idea and had a spot in your home office or garage for quite some time. From a good idea emerged a popular product and a functional business model. Then came the point when it all outgrew its small setting.
The shipping boxes started to spread all over the house. Daily trips to the post office became routine, and friends and family had to help from every corner just to keep things running. It's an exciting time because it means your idea is working and success is happening. But it's not really scalable like this. And having boxes in your living room isn't exactly aesthetically pleasing either.

At this moment, you should make a decision: opt for efficient fulfillment and take a step toward professionalizing your business.

Which business processes do you want to keep in-house, and which ones can you sensibly outsource to an external provider? Fulfillment processes can be outsourced easily and efficiently. Your business also benefits from the years of experience of a specialized fulfillment service provider like INTERMAIL.

Avoid mistakes with the help of our experience

Take a guess: what's the most common reason shipments in Germany can't be delivered?

We'll tell you: it's the lack of a house number. It sounds incredibly simple, but it can happen, especially during busy times. You see, when it comes to fulfillment for start-ups, sometimes it's the smallest details that make a big difference.

At INTERMAIL, we draw from over 70 years of shipping experience – we've seen it all. Thanks to this experience, we can fine-tune every aspect of fulfillment for your start-up to perfection.

We check for you:

• Integration with your e-commerce platform (e.g., Shopify)
• Payment options
• Your inventory levels
• Your outgoing deliveries
• The ideal packaging
• Secure sealing of your packages
• Optimizing postage
• Your returns

Enhance customer loyalty through meticulous personalization

As a start-up, what you need most are regular paying customers. Do you know why there are unboxing videos? Whether a customer becomes a regular depends largely on the feelings they have when they receive their goods. From storage to packaging to shipping – we create a completely personalized service package for you.

Fulfillment for start-ups also means that the unique qualities of your business are conveyed directly to the customer. One-size-fits-all fulfillment isn't effective in this regard.

Efficient processes with integration into common e-commerce platforms

Chances are, you already have an e-commerce platform for your start-up through which orders and payments are processed. Once you engage our services, we seamlessly connect with your existing account using our proprietary software "Solid Fulfillment."

• We handle order processing,
• generate the required shipping documents,
• prepare shipments.

We assist you in integrating with common e-commerce platforms.

Sustainably Store and Ship with Certified Concepts

Sustainable fulfillment is more than just packaging in recycled paper. That's why we offer comprehensive sustainability concepts with corresponding certifications. We participate in the GoGreen® program by Deutsche Post, enabling us to ship in an environmentally friendly way. Residual materials such as films, paper, and wood are separated and recycled in an eco-friendly manner through our recycling concept. Additionally, we can store your organic products: INTERMAIL is certified for handling organic products.

But we go even further. We think individually about how to work sustainably. For instance, we don't discard colored or painted boxes; we recycle them ourselves into packaging and cushioning materials. We have also collaborated with customers to redirect large returns, like sleeping bags, to refugee aid organizations for a more meaningful purpose.
