Customer buying habits have driven a shift in business models, prompting many to move from traditional ‘brick and mortar’ stores to online platforms. This transition has reshaped distribution and delivery methods. In this context, ecommerce order fulfilment has become a crucial consideration. Businesses now need to determine how and where to store their stock efficiently.
They face the decision of outsourcing to an ecommerce fulfilment centre, which can handle tasks such as picking and packing, and distributing products, along with managing online returns. This shift is especially valuable for smaller businesses that can find in-house fulfilment frustrating, time-consuming, and costly. Outsourcing these processes allows them to prioritize their core strengths – their products and their customers.

What is eCommerce Fulfilment?
eCommerce Fulfilment refers to the process of fulfilling and shipping orders that are sold online, which are sent from the manufacturer directly to the customer at the end-point destination. Our multichannel fulfilment services provide fast, efficient, and accurate supply chain solutions.
What are the processes of eCommerce Fulfilment?
There are five key processes that Finishing Line typically carry out when providing quality eCommerce Fulfilment services. This includes Product Receipt, Storage, Pick & Pack, Distribution, and Returns Management, where we successfully cater to all our clients’ business requirements.
How does this process actually work?
Once a customer places an order request for fulfilment of their stock, these products are then sent from the stock manufacturer to us, the fulfilment house, where all goods will be processed onto our system and stored in the warehouse, before the items are then picked, packed, and shipped.
What is your storage capacity?
Based in two locations, Finishing Line operates out of an 88,000 sq. ft. warehouse at its main Production Facility in Basildon, UK, as well as catering for more of our clients’ stock in our second eCommerce Fulfilment facility, which offers an additional 33,000 sq. ft. of warehouse storage.

Are you able to arrange vehicles at your facility?
Arranging vehicles can be scheduled on request for any fulfilment-related requirements. Finishing Line receives a high number of queries, many of which ask whether this type of service would be available, to which we respond that arranging vehicles can always be accommodated.
Is platform integration a service that Finishing Line can provide?
