“The biggest benefit of working with Diamond is the people. Although we haven’t needed to do it often, whenever something unexpected has happened (and it’s the real world, these things do occasionally happen) we’ve been able to pick up the phone, talk to a real person who knows what they are doing, and reach a rapid solution. It’s a huge contrast to other couriers we have used in the past.”

When is the right time to outsource e-commerce fulfilment?
The right time to outsource your eCommerce fulfilment is when it becomes too busy for you or your staff to handle, when your goods are filling your storage space, or when your existing fulfilment partner is unable to scale with you.
You may find that your business has grown to 200+ orders per month, and you are starting to be a ‘scale-up’ business, not a ‘start-up’. Suddenly, you have become a warehouse picker and packer, not an e-commerce entrepreneur.
Outsourcing your fulfilment will allow you to concentrate on your skill set as a business owner, while working with a trusted partner that you know will deliver your goods quickly and efficiently.
How much does it cost to outsource Fulfilment?
Outsourcing eCommerce fulfilment for scale up clients is a LOT more cost effective than having your own warehouse, pickers, packers, warehouse management system, operations managers, customer service agents and more. Instead, you simply pay per m² for storage, a price per pick and pack, and a fee for the delivery. This can start from as little as £2 a shipment.
The factors that impact fulfilment costs are: the type of goods, the destination, delivery times and carrier selections. It’s best to get a bespoke quotation based on your goods, your business aims and your customers. This way we can help you match your expectations with the right carriers or couriers.
How do I choose the right fulfilment partner?
When choosing an eCommerce Fulfilment partner, consider the variety of solutions available based on your target customers. First, determine your priorities and growth goals. Are you aiming to become the next ASOS? If so, you'll need one of the larger central UK warehouses. For SMEs, a more local and accessible solution may better suit your needs.
Consider what matters most to you. Is this merely a functional business relationship, or are you seeking a trusted partner to help grow your business? Do you value environmental sustainability, recyclable packaging, and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)? Your fulfilment partner needs to understand your values and put them into practice.
There's a significant difference between large-scale fulfilment houses and more personalised, local solutions. Determining which values and attributes matter most to your business will guide your final decision.
How does eCommerce Fulfilment work?
Diamond's eCommerce fulfilment system seamlessly integrates with your marketplaces and website. We receive your goods into our warehouse and synchronize stock and inventory, providing you with real-time "in stock" information. Once your delivery options are set, you're ready to go—it's that simple.
Orders flow automatically from your systems to our warehouse where they're picked, packed and dispatched. Our management system offers complete transparency, updating you on your goods' status at every stage from arrival to delivery.
What marketplaces or sites can I sell my goods on?
We fully integrate with eBay, Amazon, Magento, Shopify, WooCommerce, Linnworks and 40+ other marketplaces, plus we offer bespoke integrations. Your orders flow directly into our system, Despatchlab, which tracks the entire order journey from picking to delivery, providing complete transparency throughout your eCommerce fulfillment process.
You can instantly see what items have been picked, what's scheduled for same-day dispatch, and what has been delivered. If any delivery issues occur, you'll have full visibility of the resolution steps being taken.
Despatchlab is user-friendly and provides both real-time operational insights and detailed reports to help drive your business growth.
