What is Pick and Pack Fulfillment?
Pick and pack fulfillment involves a series of steps from receiving the order to shipping it. The following are some common steps involved in eCommerce pick and pack fulfillment.
A buyer orders from the eCommerce store.
This order is passed to the warehouse for order fulfillment.
The barcode-printed packing slip is generated using the software.
A worker will arrange the item or items in the order by referring to the barcode on the slip.
Next, the item is kept in their intended packaging and carried to the packaging station.
The package is labeled, thus, prepared for shipping.
A labelled box is taken to the loading station, where a carrier will pick them up for delivery.
The customer will receive this order depending on the urgency. The shipping times generally range from same-day shipping to 2-3 days shipping or longer depending on the location or product availability.
