FAQs

What is 3PL?

Third-Party Logistics (3PL) involves the outsourcing of fulfilment and logistics operations to a specialised partner that manages storage, inventory, order processing and delivery on behalf of businesses.

This model enables businesses to scale efficiently and reduce operational complexity. By leveraging this external infrastructure, brands can focus on core growth activities while maintaining exceptional customer experiences.

What is 3PL in Supply Chain?  

In the supply chain, a 3PL functions as a critical operational node, integrating storage, inventory management, fulfilment, and transportation. Acting as a strategic extension of the business, the partner optimises global operations and logistics performance across every touchpoint.

THG Fulfil, for example, integrates directly into supply chains through a connected ecosystem of 13 global distribution centres, 250+ courier partners, and cutting-edge automation. This delivers total visibility, scalability, and operational excellence at every stage of the fulfilment process.

What is a 3PL Partner?  

A 3PL partner is a logistics specialist that collaborates with brands to manage and optimise their fulfilment and delivery operations. Beyond simple order processing, a strong 3PL partner provides strategic insight, data-driven performance, and technological innovation to help businesses expand into new markets and maintain service excellence.

THG Fulfil operates as a true strategic extension of the business, aligning fulfilment operations with brand goals, customer expectations, and international growth strategies. Proprietary platforms and automation-led processes provide partners with the agility and reliability required to compete globally.

What is 3PL Distribution?  

3PL distribution involves the management of inventory, order allocation, and product delivery through third-party logistics providers. It ensures that goods move efficiently from storage to the customer by using optimised routing, courier integrations, and intelligent order management systems.

THG Fulfil powers distribution at a global scale. With automated fulfilment handling 94% of over 80 million units annually, and an integrated courier management platform connecting to over 250 global and local carriers, the solution sets the benchmark for speed, accuracy, and end-to-end visibility in ecommerce distribution.

How do 3PL Companies Support Ecommerce Business?  

3PL providers accelerate ecommerce growth by managing the entire fulfilment process. This encompasses every stage of the journey, from warehousing and inventory control to order processing, shipping, and returns management.  

By handing global operations to experts, brands can prioritise marketing, product development and customer engagement, securing a competitive advantage without the burden of managing in-house logistics.
