Cosmetic logistics and fulfilment

Logistics coordinates movement and storage of finished products. Fulfilment handles the preparation and dispatch of particular orders. Providers may offer either service or combine them, so the contract should define where responsibility begins and ends.

Storage and inventory

Work may include receiving finished goods, palletisation, warehousing and stock control. Storage conditions should suit the product and available stability information. Batch identification and inventory records help trace goods through distribution and manage dated stock where applicable.

Order preparation and shipping

• Pick and pack individual or wholesale orders
• Prepare cartons, labels and protective materials
• Arrange carrier collection and dispatch records
• Supply agreed shipping and cross-border documentation
• Handle returns according to defined procedures

Confirm route-specific requirements

Retail deliveries, direct-to-consumer orders and international shipments have different service needs. Product characteristics, such as flammability or temperature sensitivity, may affect handling and transport requirements. Confirm coverage, lead times, stock reconciliation and loss or damage responsibilities rather than assuming one offer serves every destination.
