Coffee & Tea Fulfillment
Fulfilling coffee and tea comes with some challenges, including quality control, shipping rules and regulations, shipping fragile items, and safe warehousing.
That’s why many fast-growing coffee and tea brands partner with ShipBob, a best-in-class 3PL that offers the distribution network, technology, and industry expertise to fulfill orders safely, accurately, and quickly.
I felt like I couldn’t grow until I moved to ShipBob. Our old 3PL was slowing us down. Now I am encouraged to sell more with them. My CPA even said to me, ‘thank god you switched to ShipBob.’

What is coffee and tea fulfillment?
Coffee and tea fulfillment involves the process of picking, packing, and shipping orders with coffee and tea products, including accessories like creamers, mugs, and milk steamers.
How ShipBob has helped coffee and tea brands
ShipBob has partnered with fast-growing coffee and tea brands to help them scale their logistics operations, reduce shipping and fulfillment costs, and speed up last-mile delivery. For instance, Prymal offers dairy- and sugar-free coffee creamers in a variety of delicious flavors, plus coffee accessories. When Prymal’s brand was growing, they switched from their old 3PL to ShipBob.
ShipBob offered the distribution network, technology, and visibility into the entire fulfillment process that helped the Prymal brand grow while saving on costs.
“Last July, Prymal reached $40,000 in revenue. After switching to ShipBob just four months later in November, we are reaching $160,000 a month in revenue — that’s 300% growth. We’re also saving $8,000 per month in fulfillment costs.”

Getting started with ShipBob is easy
ShipBob makes it easy to outsource fulfillment. ShipBob offers direct integration with leading ecommerce platforms, including Shopify and Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, Squarespace, Wix, Square, and Square Online.
“50% of my time spent was packing boxes. Not only that, but it was a constant interruption. I would sit down to do an email marketing campaign, have to attend to new orders, and completely lose my train of thought and flow. I spent about 3 minutes per order on fulfillment. I almost didn’t want orders to come in. ShipBob was the exact solution I was looking for.”

Once you connect your store with ShipBob’s technology, you can choose which fulfillment center locations (across the US and in Canada, Australia, the EU, and the UK) to store inventory in. Once we receive and store your inventory, orders placed on your online store will automatically be sent to ShipBob to be picked, packed, and shipped.
You can track the entire fulfillment process from the ShipBob’s dashboard, and you can view inventory levels and order status all in real time.
Distributed inventory
With ShipBob’s network of fulfillment centers, you can strategically split your inventory across our locations to get your products from point A to point B more quickly and affordably. Storing inventory near your customers helps reduce the shipping zones and costs associated with shipping orders to faraway destinations.
Distributed inventory also helps you stay competitive by offering fast shipping to your customers. When an order is placed, ShipBob’s algorithm automatically selects the warehouse and carrier that will give you the quickest turnaround at the best price. This strategy has helped our merchants bring 13% savings to their bottom line.
100% Coverage Across the Continental US
If you’re looking to expand into the United States, ShipBob has 2-Day Express Shipping that provides 100% coverage in the continental US from even just one fulfillment center.
You can also distribute your inventory across ShipBob’s fulfillment centers across all regions of the United States. We leave it up to you to decide where you want us to store your inventory.
Order management
At ShipBob, we track your orders from A to Z. Filter orders by status, search for specific orders, see a quick timeline view of where your order is in the fulfillment process (e.g. when an order is picked, packed, or shipped), easily find shipping-related information (e.g., weights, dimensions, or carrier service), and get a quick snapshot of any orders that require action.
With order management software for your direct-to-consumer and wholesale shipments, you can manage subscriptions, make changes to your orders post-purchase, map your store’s shipping options to ShipBob, and automatically share tracking information with your customers.
Reporting and analytics
To provide you with visibility into our operations and performance, and also hold ourselves accountable, ShipBob’s free analytics tool is packed with charts to help you with everything from year-end reporting, to better supply chain decision-making.
Data can be a competitive advantage, and our reports show an analysis of which fulfillment centers you should stock, days of inventory left before you run out, impact of promotions on stock levels, each shipping method’s average cart value, shipping cost, and days in transit, your fulfillment cost per order, storage cost per unit, and much more.
End-to-end customer experience
We care about the customer experience as much as you and strive to be an extension of your team. From custom branded boxes to free plain packaging, ShipBob works with you to provide the unboxing experience you want. We also help you offer the fastest, most cost-effective shipping options to meet your customers’ expectations.
As soon as an order ships, tracking is pushed back to your store. We also offer return management services, allowing customers to generate return shipping labels and track returns, while getting your products processed and back into your available inventory as efficiently as possible.
