Staci Americas Helps Direct Seller 32 Degrees
32 Degrees is an apparel company whose clothes offer maximum comfort at a valued price. The company sold only through retail channels until 2017, when it launched 32degrees.com. Since then, online sales have exploded. But early on, that growth was painful.
That triggered a search for a B2C fulfillment company that could handle a high volume of very complex orders. 32 Degrees now averages 45,000 orders per month, and that number is steadily rising. SKUs number anywhere from 1000–2,000, depending on the season, and the order profile requires a more complicated pick process, with about 5 different SKUs per order.
“With Staci Americas, we have confidence that we can scale fulfillment to meet any growth trajectory."
Key To Success
SCALABILITY
With the new voice pick system in full operation, 32 Degrees shipped more B2C orders on July 4th than it did on the previous Cyber Monday. Fulfillment is no longer a barrier to growth.
ADAPTING BASED ON SKU-SPECIFIC FORECASTS
With the new voice pick system in full operation, 32 Degrees shipped more B2C orders on July 4th than it did on the previous Cyber Monday. Fulfillment is no longer a barrier to growth.
PARCEL SAVINGS
A change from USPS to FedEx SmartPost using Staci Americas' lower rates yielded substantial parcel savings.
CLOSE COMMUNICATION
The relationship is highly collaborative. “Staci Americas acts on the information we provide – not all 3PLs do,” says Lunden. And 32 Degrees will change its processes in response to an Staci Americas request. For instance, 32 Degrees worked with its overseas vendors to group like SKUs together when loading containers. This significantly reduced unload and sort times at the warehouse.
