Fulfillment centers enable online merchants to outsource warehousing and shipping services. A few years ago, most people had never heard of a fulfillment center, let alone considered fulfillment centers as an integral part of owning and growing a business. With the rise in economic globalization and popularity of online retailers, it is now common practice for small and mid size businesses to utilize fulfillment centers, like Shipping-and-Handling.com, to deliver goods to their customers worldwide.
If you are thinking of outsourcing your fulfillment services, here are 6 ways Shipping-and-Handling.com’s fulfillment center can boost your bottom line:

Lower Operating Costs
By utilizing a facility where the costs for labor, rent, utilities, packing supplies, etc., are shared between multiple businesses, you will lower your operating costs with Shipping-and-Handling.com.
