Client Background:

A Health And Wellness Brand Operating In Both B2C and B2B markets

This client is a health and wellness company specialising in energy drinks, hydration products, sports supplements and branded merchandise. 

Their company operates two Shopify shops and fulfils small-batch wholesale carton orders and mixed-pallet B2B orders, whilst also offering repackaging and nationwide distribution across Australia.

As orders and sales channels have expanded, the existing back-end model has struggled to manage order structures, stock synchronisation, freight cost control and delivery timelines during peak seasons within a single workflow.

The Result

From modelling real-world business data to the coordination of orders, stock and delivery, CSG transforms complex B2C and B2B fulfilment into a measurable, scalable growth capability.

THE CHALLENGE

A Unified Omnichannel Fulfilment Model is More Suitable for this Business Than a ‘Dual-Supplier Split’

The client initially considered having one supplier handle full-pallet distribution and another handle B2C and B2B fulfilment. Based on actual data, CSG concluded that this would increase the number of handover points between stock, orders, systems and carriers, making cost allocation and the definition of responsibilities more difficult; a unified model is better suited to their complex business mix.

Significant Differences In B2C and B2B Order Structures

B2C orders are frequent and dispersed; B2B orders are fewer in number, but the quantity of goods per order and the number of cartons picked are significantly higher. Products are also sold in a mix of single items, bundles, original cartons or repackaged orders, making it difficult for a single picking rule to cover all scenarios.

 

Growing Omnichannel Operation Become Difficult to Manage.

Frequent, dispersed B2C orders required different picking rules from lower-volume, multi-carton B2B orders, while 117,000 items across 107 SKUs and around eight monthly inbound deliveries were creating stocktake delays of up to three days. Shipping costs were spread across spreadsheets, invoices lacked order-level clarity, and two Shopify stores, MYOB and the internal ERP/API were disconnected. 

CSG SOLUTION

Build Measurable, Interconnected & Scalable Omnichannel Fulfilment Systems

When receiving an enquiry from a client, Our fulfilment specialists first analyse the client’s actual business operations, then convert representative order, stock, goods-in, consignment and freight data into a comprehensive operational model. 

The core of the solution is not to treat each order as a simple ‘box-moving’ task, but to establish a workable omnichannel 3PL system centred on the workflows of different channels.

We have mapped out the operational procedures for inventory receipt , sorting, storage and order switching at our Melbourne 3PL warehousing,  integrating the transfer of customers’ stock into the overall fulfilment plan to minimise the impact of the switch on ongoing dispatch operations.

CSG VALUE

Builds a Sustainable Fulfilment Capabilities for Health Drink Brands

CSG does not merely manage warehouse operations; rather, it integrates the multi-channel orders, complex packaging combinations and system data typical of health drink brands with a nationwide distribution network, thereby transforming fulfilment from a passive cost centre into a back-end capability that supports sales growth.

  • single inventory pool supports both B2C and B2B

Brands no longer need to maintain separate inventory and fulfilment systems for e-commerce, wholesale and mixed-pallet orders.

  • Multi-variant orders processed under a unified set of rules

Single items, multi-packs, full cartons, mixed orders and repackaging requirements can all be incorporated into the same operational model.

  • Data integration reduces manual reconciliation

Order, stock and fulfilment statuses are clearer, meaning sales, operations and accounts teams no longer need to rely on disparate spreadsheets for repeated verification.

  • Multi-carrier Routing to Protect Profit Margins

When dealing with heavy, multi-box orders or those with different delivery address types, brands can control costs by selecting the most appropriate delivery options.

  • Scalable Fulfilment to Support Marketing Growth

During promotional campaigns and peak seasons, warehousing, picking, packing and delivery capacities can scale in line with order growth.
