Grow and optimise your Amazon store with the premium Amazon fulfilment solution from Zendbox.
Amazon provides multiple fulfilment options, and our responsive service makes Zendbox the perfect partner for managing your needs as an Amazon eCommerce store. Our flexible 3PL solution means we can manage all Amazon delivery options according to your exact requirements.
In addition to handling storage and shipping for your Amazon store, we can pick and pack according to your specific business requirements – no matter whether you need sustainable packaging or a custom, branded solution. Using a 3PL provider for your Amazon orders frees up valuable time that can be spent on increasing revenue and keeping your customers happy. Your buyers receive their goods in exactly the way they would if you’d sent it yourself and you reap the 5-star online reviews to prove it.
Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM) means that a merchant has their orders fulfilled by their chosen fulfilment partner. Zendbox can integrate into your Amazon store, ensuring automatic fulfilment of orders on your Amazon channel. It’s exactly the same as sending orders yourself or having them fulfilled by Amazon, yet is less time consuming for you as an eCommerce business owner and more efficient than other Amazon fulfilment options.
As an Amazon seller, you’ll be aware of the Prime badge. Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) enables you to maintain the Prime badge on your account, but have your orders shipped by Zendbox. We work with the authorised carriers and adhere to the relevant Amazon guidelines to ensure Prime conditions are met. This means your eCommerce store can capitalise on the benefits of Prime delivery without having to store stock at an Amazon warehouse.
Some customers choose to use Amazon fulfilment, preferring to keep their stock and processes under one roof. Arranging your stock to be sent to Amazon, or finding a place for it in the interim can take time and incur extra costs. Zendbox makes this process simple and limits damages by fully preparing your stock to be shipped to Amazon fulfilment centres.
Our systems can revolutionise your Amazon back-end processes, ensuring happy customers and ecstatic logistics managers! Whether you’re looking for a complete alternative to FBA or simply want to increase efficiencies within your current processes, why not explore your options with Zendbox? Get started with a demo to see exactly how we can take your Amazon operations to the next level.

Amazon 3PL fulfilment is when you outsource the inventory management, storage, picking, packing, shipping, and customer returns processes for your Amazon store to a 3PL (third-party logistics) provider. Depending on the 3PL you choose, outsourcing your Amazon fulfilment service can be more cost-effective than using Amazon’s FBA solution, whilst enabling you to take advantage of bespoke packaging and storage options. The right Amazon 3PL will be able to provide a service that’s unique to your eCommerce business needs and requirements.
By partnering with Zendbox and outsourcing your Amazon fulfilment, you can still offer Prime delivery to your customers and retain the Prime badge on your Amazon account. We work with authorised carriers and adhere to Amazon’s strict guidelines to ensure Prime conditions are met, without you having to store your inventory at an Amazon warehouse.
Whether a 3PL is better than Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) depends on the provider that you decide to partner with, as well as your specific order fulfilment requirements. Ultimately, the right 3PL should be able to support your business, no matter if you require a complete Amazon fulfilment service, or assistance in the relocation of your stock to be fulfilled by Amazon.
Using an Amazon 3PL service offers several advantages – the biggest of which is that you’ll be able to leverage the expertise and experience of eCommerce and logistics experts, who fully understand your business and are committed to helping you grow. Many Amazon 3PLs will appoint a dedicated account manager to act as your direct contact for support, providing further assurance that action will be taken as and when required.
Unlike Amazon’s one-size-fits-all approach, a good Amazon 3PL provider will also tailor their service to meet your specific business needs and requirements. When excellent unboxing experiences can win you loyal customers and encourage repeat business, it pays to work with a fulfilment partner that can provide a bespoke service, which may include custom, branded packaging solutions.
Another advantage of using an Amazon 3PL service is that you can benefit from more cost-effective shipping and storage rates, as independent 3PLs can often choose between shipping carriers and negotiate the best price whilst maintaining the quality of their service. They may also be able to achieve bulk discounts on large order volumes that you may not necessarily be able to secure on your own.
