What fabric and textile brands need from a fulfilment partner<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fabric and textile brands deal with unique logistics challenges\u2014from bulky fabric rolls to frequent style and dye-lot variations. Here\u2019s what to look for in a fulfilment partner that can handle the complexity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Storing and shipping bulky, fabric-heavy SKUs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Fabric rolls, pre-cut yardage, and plush finished goods demand plenty of cubic space. Look for a 3PL platform that can offer flexible inventory placement to distribute across different regions of the U.S. for reduced shipping costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juggling DTC parcels and wholesale POs from one inventory pool<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Selling fabric online while also fulfilling wholesale orders shouldn\u2019t require multiple logistics solutions. Look for a 3PL platform that provides a single real-time SKU count across sales channels, supports both parcel and freight orders for DTC and B2B fulfilment, and offers EDI workflows from its US fulfilment centres, enabling seamless co-existence of DTC and B2B operations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining real-time visibility across styles and dye lots<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Seasonal drops, dye-lot variations, and limited-run prints demand accuracy. Look for real-time syncing across ecommerce platforms so you always know your stock levels with analytics on on-hand, allocated, and reorder points so you replenish right on schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shipping fabric swatch and sample kits at scale<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Swatch books and sample kits require picking many small SKUs, adding branded inserts, and kitting them for a premium unboxing experience. Work with a provider that can bundle swatches or sample packs, store them under a single SKU, and fulfil orders quickly to help shorten your sales cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Receiving overseas freight without slowing replenishment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Container loads from overseas mills can stall replenishment if freight and fulfilment are managed through disparate systems. Partner with a logistics provider that can help you coordinate inbound freight and fulfilment, then shelves your inventory quickly so products go live sooner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ShipBob solutions fabric and textile brands care about<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ShipBob\u2019s 3PL platform is designed for fabric and textile fulfilment, combining global storage, real-time inventory visibility, and scalable solutions. Here\u2019s how we help brands cut costs while keeping products moving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Multiple storage options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ShipBob offers pallet, shelf, and bin storage across its network of dozens of fulfilment centres in the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia. ShipBob’s team is trained to stow products using the most space-efficient storage option for every SKU, and brands can leverage the Inventory Placement Program (IPP) to distribute inventory across different regions of the U.S. 
This process helps reduce shipping costs and transit times. So, while distributing inventory will incur additional storage fees per location, if your customers are located across the country, it can help reduce your shipping costs (especially for heavier, bulkier packages).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unified inventory management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Manage DTC and B2B orders from a single inventory pool with ShipBob. Our platform provides a real-time SKU count across sales channels, supports parcel and freight workflows, and offers EDI integrations for retail compliance from our US fulfilment centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real-time inventory analytics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Track on-hand, in-transit, and forecasted inventory by SKU, variant, and location. Automated alerts and reorder points help you manage specific inventory characteristics like dye lots and limited-run prints with confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bundling products at scale<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ShipBob’s bundling services allow your brand to mix and match products, so your customers can get custom combinations of products while ShipBob handles the SKU level, keeping your stock counts up-to-date and freeing your team to focus on growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Configurable returns management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Choose to restock, quarantine, or dispose of returned products in your dashboard with just a few clicks. Returned units that meet your specified criteria are restocked into active inventory, while non-viable items are quarantined or disposed of to optimise storage space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
