Order Fulfillment for Turmeric Products
Though currently quite small at only several billion dollars, the global market for turmeric products is growing at a rate materially faster than that of the economy as a whole (expectations are for the turmeric-based product space to exceed five billion dollars in revenue by 2027). From a fulfillment perspective, turmeric products—which are quite diverse—cover the spectrum from straight-forward to complex; however, a number of challenges are frequently present: multi-channel sales, custom pack-outs (complete with branded packaging materials and marketing inserts), routing guide compliance, and returns and exchange management.
Multi-Channel Sales
Multi-channel sales are a fact of life for most e-commerce operations and the turmeric product space is no exception. Increasingly, health and wellness products of all kinds need to have a presence on Amazon as the platform represents roughly 50% of the US e-commerce market. This coupled with one or more eBay storefronts, Walmart (and Jet) storefronts, proprietary websites, and bulk sales to other retailers collectively creates a rather complex order fulfillment profile for the typical seller.
Custom Pack-Outs – Branded Packaging Materials and Marketing Inserts
An outstanding unboxing experience is becoming increasingly important for e-commerce brands. For turmeric products, it starts with product display packaging, but it certainly does not end there. From custom outer shipping cartons to custom corrugated inserts, polybags, bubble envelopes, void fill, and marketing materials, turmeric product manufacturers and sellers have a wide-array of opportunities to positively (or negatively) impact brand perception. Through a sister company, IronLinx is able to design, source, and procure a wide array of custom packaging and marketing materials including: corrugated cartons, polymailers, bubble mailers, corrugated inserts, and marketing materials.
Wholesale Routing Guide Compliance
One of the more complex aspects of order fulfillment involves routing guide compliance for larger retailers. Routing guides serve as the means by which large retailers manage the daunting task of receiving large numbers of products per day from countless vendors. Seemingly minuscule deviations from the dictates of a routing guide – such as the use of prohibited void fill materials (packing peanuts, for instance, are generally unwelcome) or the use of incorrect shipping accounts (prepaid as opposed to third-party or collect) – can and do lead to not only prohibitively expensive chargebacks, but even the outright rejections of entire shipments. IronLinx has substantial experience handling routing guide compliancy across industries and can help to smooth the process for the sellers of turmeric products.
Returns and Exchange Management
Returns and exchange management is a critical component of the order fulfillment process for health and wellness product sellers. As is generally the case across the e-commerce retail space, inadequate handling of returns and/or exchanges is a frequently-cited driver of customer service problems, poor reviews, and lost opportunities for repeat business and/or referrals. For more than a decade and a half, IronLinx has worked closely with its clients to custom-tailor returns and exchange management processes to precisely meet their unique needs.
