How you can benefit from fulfilment services cosmetic products

Cosmetics products consist of high-quality materials and often of sensitive, organic substances. They therefore require careful logistical handling. Professional fulfilment service providers such as Quivo are geared to meet the special requirements of cosmetic products.
 

The following aspects are key when it comes to fulfilment services for beauty and cosmetic products:

• Cool and secure storage:

Beauty products need to be stored in a suitable environment to maintain quality and ensure their stability. The storage temperature and humidity must be appropriate to product type. Some products, for example, must be kept cool, while others need to be protected from direct sunlight. A fulfilment centre that stores beauty products takes care of these aspects.  

• Stable packaging:

The packaging of beauty products must be secure and stable to prevent the products being damaged in transit. At the same time, packaging must be aesthetically appealing in keeping with the brand image. With this in mind, it is best to deliver products in glass containers, i.e. ideally with external packaging, so that they remain in perfect condition during subsequent picking. 

• Swift shipping:

Customers often order beauty and care products for urgent reasons and require the items as quickly as possible. So swift shipping is of crucial importance in this industry! Fulfilment providers wrap thousands of orders, or packages, per day - we guarantee same-day fulfilment, for example. All the related processes undertaken by such logistics companies are fast, automated and virtually error-free. So there is no need for you to worry about delays.

• Perishability:

Some cosmetics products, especially those that contain organic or natural substances, can deteriorate or become less effective if they are not correctly stored. And it is equally important to ship these products quickly and in the right conditions. Fulfilment providers can meet both of these needs.

• Returns: 

As many customers are very picky when it comes to cosmetic and beauty products, they are likely to send back products that fail to meet their expectations. Therefore it is crucial that fulfilment providers have effective returns processes to ease the burden on your beauty company. Fulfilment providers can accept, classify and further process all returns as agreed.

• International shipping: 

If cosmetic products are shipped to other countries, it is often necessary to comply with special rules and requirements  in order to meet the applicable customs and import regulations. If you outsource your beauty logistics to a fulfilment provider, their experts possess the necessary know-how to ensure that deliveries to international destinations are also processed smoothly.

In addition, they offer an extensive network of shipping partners whose delivery costs are often more favourable.

As a cosmetics company it is important not just to offer high-quality products but also to ensure that customers are satisfied with their purchases. The outsourcing of logistics to fulfilment providers can come with numerous advantages, including:faster delivery, efficient problem-solving and greater customer loyalty.
