Next-day delivery across Europe made easy.

The situation explained.

Acquiring customers today comes with the challenge of meeting high expectations: next-day deliveries are part of it. Meeting Yepoda’s ever-growing demand and avoiding expensive cross-border B2C or B2B shipping costs required a go-local strategy. Expanding operations and maintaining low operating costs seemed nearly impossible for the successful cosmetics brand – until it started working with everstox.

The success story of Yepoda.

As Yepoda expanded its operations across Europe, managing multiple local fulfillment centers and shipping carriers presented logistical challenges for its team.

‍

Challenges

Before partnering with everstox, Yepoda spent months searching for a better solution, integrating multiple commerce systems and monitoring the performance of 3PLs and shipping carriers. Working with multiple fulfillment centers not harmonized in one ecosystem made it nearly impossible to maintain a high inventory turnover rate across all locations. Furthermore, their sales goals were hampered by high cross-border shipping costs and long shipping times.

Our solution

everstox, as a fulfillment partner, offers Yepoda an integrated, comprehensive solution for multi-warehouse management to eliminate their logistical challenges. The everstox fulfillment solution allows Yepoda to connect all of its retail systems to a unified ecosystem to harmonize the operations of all independently chosen fulfillment centers and shipping service providers and to monitor performance with proactive notifications using a central tool. In addition, intelligent order routing rules at all selected locations increase their inventory turnover rate, thereby positively impacting cash flows and reducing operating costs. To further increase sales and purchase frequency, everstox also provides a personalized fulfillment experience with marketing inserts and branded packaging, as well as flexible shipping and delivery processes. In short, Yepoda can increase global sales with a compelling logistics experience – all without increasing operating costs and without process repetition for each newly added fulfillment center or shipping solution.

Benefits

Yepoda avoids the “black box situation” that often occurs when working with multiple siloed environments and connections to fulfillment centers without a harmonized ecosystem. Ultimately, Yepoda increases its operational efficiency by automating workflows to coordinate its 3PLs, shipping providers, and warehouse inventories. It’s not just the technology that the Yepoda team values: with customized fulfillment and local shipping processes, Yepoda’s customers experience next-day shipping, which further boosts their excellent overall customer satisfaction (e.g. Trustpilot DE 4.4 & Trustpilot IT 4.7). Convenient and efficient multi-warehouse management plays a crucial role in Yepoda’s sales growth, enabling faster market entry with local picking to deliver faster in Germany, Italy, and many more regions within the EU.
