Running a successful Amazon or Walmart store involves more than just finding products and generating sales — it means managing shipping, prep, compliance, and inventory. As your business scales, logistics can quickly become overwhelming. That’s where a 3PL (third-party logistics) partner comes in.
In this post, we’ll explain what a 3PL does, how it supports eCommerce sellers, and why Southeast Fulfillment is a trusted partner for sellers who want to grow without the growing pains.
What Is a 3PL and How Does It Help Sellers?
A 3PL (third-party logistics) provider handles the behind-the-scenes work of prepping, packing, storing, and shipping your inventory. For Amazon and Walmart sellers, a specialized 3PL helps meet marketplace requirements — without the stress.
Key 3PL services include:
- FBA and WFS (Walmart Fulfillment Services) prep
Product labeling and inspection
Inventory storage and reporting
Order bundling and kitting
Inbound shipping coordination to Amazon/Walmart warehouses.
A good 3PL removes the headaches and lets you focus on growing your business.
Why Sellers Turn to 3PLs Like Southeast Fulfillment
Here’s what you gain when you stop doing it all yourself:
✅ Time savings – No more spending hours labeling or packing
✅ Fewer mistakes – Avoid costly FBA rejections or compliance issues
✅ Scalability – Handle larger orders, new SKUs, and seasonal spikes with ease
✅ Improved inventory control – Sync shipments with demand and avoid stockouts
You can stay lean and agile, even while your order volume increases.
When Is the Right Time to Switch to a 3PL?
You’re likely ready for a 3PL if:
You’re prepping 100+ units/month
You’ve missed restock windows or FBA check-ins
You struggle with labeling, bundling, or shipping
You’re expanding to new platforms like Walmart or Shopify
Outsourcing your logistics is one of the smartest ways to buy back your time and reduce fulfillment risk.
