What logistics outsourcing is and when it is worthwhile

Logistics outsourcing is the choice of entrusting the logistics management to a specialized external operator, instead of managing it internally. With third-party logistics a third-party logistics company like Hubrise takes care of warehouse, order fulfillment and shipping, while you maintain the strategic control. Logistics outsourcing is worthwhile when the volumes grow, when the peaks make it difficult to size the resources, or when the internal warehouse subtracts space and capital from the core business.

The advantages of third-party logistics

From fixed costs to variable costs

The third-party warehouse eliminates the investment in spaces, shelving and fixed personnel. The logistics externalization converts these items into a variable cost, proportioned to the volumes effectively managed.

Logistics management entrusted to specialists

The third-party logistics management puts your flows in the hands of a dedicated team. Processes, personnel and organization of the warehouse are already structured: you don't have to build them from zero.

Flexibility on the peaks

The integrated third-party logistics absorbs the variations of demand. In the peak months the capacity adapts to the volumes, without that you have to hire or reduce personnel.

Focus on the core business

Entrusting the e-commerce third-party logistics to Hubrise frees time and internal resources to dedicate to product, marketing and sales.
