In late 2020, Ware2Go built and launched a new fulfillment technology platform, FulfillmentVu. The platform combines a warehouse management system, transportation management system, and order management system that serves as a connection point between multiple sales channels and extensive fulfillment capabilities across Ware2Go’s distributed warehouse network. FulfillmentVu offers merchants of all sizes maximum fulfillment flexibility and the ability to adapt quickly with shifts in demand or channel requirements.
FulfillmentVu is our merchants’ digital access point to our scalable warehouse network. It integrates with over 70 ecommerce tools, from shopping carts to marketplaces and ERP systems so merchants can manage the full scope of their commerce operations within a single platform. FulfillmentVu allows merchants to manage orders across any transit mode, from full truck loads for B2B shipments to small parcel for direct to consumer (D2C) orders. Merchants can easily reallocate inventory to a new sales channel or move it to a different warehouse based on shifts in demand. Merchants can then access at-a-glance reporting on order statuses and inventory levels across all sales channels and warehouse locations for simplified order management.
Additionally, Ware2Go is developing a full suite of supply chain tools to help merchants make smarter and faster decisions about building, planning, and adjusting their fulfillment workflows. The first launched tool in the suite, NetworkVu, helps merchants better understand their customer profile, build optimized fulfillment, and outline the financial impact of outsourced fulfillment.
Both technologies drive value singularly, but when leveraged together, they provide a powerful end-to-end fulfillment solution that yields significant advantages to SMB merchants looking to compete at scale. With NetworkVu, merchants can see where their customers are clustered and align inventory strategically to reach their best customers with affordable 2-day ground shipping and meet the growing consumer demand for fast delivery. The insights gained from NetworkVu can be applied across FulfillmentVu to help merchants make smarter fulfillment decisions, improving delivery speeds and decreasing final mile delivery costs by moving inventory or adding a new warehouse location to their network.

These technologies have enabled 100% year over year revenue growth for Ware2Go. FulfillmentVu’s capability to support multiple fulfillment needs across multiple integrations has allowed Ware2Go to diversify our client base as we solve complicated fulfillment challenges like residential freight delivery white glove with in-home assembly. We are also one of the only fulfillment providers able to meet Amazon’s new Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) requirements, which require Amazon sellers to make 1- to 2-day delivery promises to a certain percentage of shoppers based on their IP address and their proximity to a warehouse location. Using NetworkVu to build their SFP network and FulfillmentVu to monitor their inventory levels and order statuses across that network, the world’s largest Amazon aggregator, Thrasio has grown their Amazon sales by 75% while maintaining 99.5% on time fulfillment with Ware2Go.
Children’s furniture brand, ECR4Kids, was using a traditional in-house fulfillment model that included multiple warehouse locations that fulfilled B2B shipments. When they decided to launch a direct to consumer sales channel, they partnered with Ware2Go to fulfill their small parcel ecommerce shipments. While working with Ware2Go, they found that the flexible model, which relied on technology, was simpler and more scalable than their previous traditional solution. They chose to exit all of their in-house fulfillment centers and instead use Ware2Go’s network and technology to fulfill all orders, from large B2B shipments to D2C ecommerce shipments.
ECR4Kids’ founder and CEO, Lee Seigel quickly saw that fulfillment technology would be the key to operating their business at scale. “The platform is scalable. We’re leveraging on technology versus having to layer on more and more people.”
Plant-based protein brand, ALOHA, found that Ware2Go’s fulfillment technology allowed them to build a fulfillment network that could support high-volume D2C sales before they ramped up their ecommerce sales channel. They used NetworkVu to understand where their ecommerce customers were located and stock inventory in strategic locations to ship to those customers quickly and affordably. Ultimately, their D2C sales channel grew 300% year over year without complicating or slowing down their fulfillment process.
