B2B Fulfillment

B2B fulfillment covers storage, picking, packing and shipping for business recipients such as branches, distributors and sales teams. Typical requirements include agreed receiving windows, packing rules and documentation. B2B can use parcel or freight shipping, and B2C can use either depending on the goods. The defining factors are the recipient and delivery requirements, not the transport method alone.

Why it matters

In B2B, it is not the dispatch that decides — it is the acceptance.

Business customers accept goods on their own terms: time slots, delivery notification, pallet configuration, labeling. Missing these specifications produces rejected deliveries, demurrage charges and exception cases — costs that never appear in the quoted price. For procurement and marketing decision-makers, B2B fulfillment is therefore a question of process reliability: the ongoing supply of stores and partners has to keep running, even when a campaign generates load peaks in parallel.

B2B fulfillment at PROWERB

Fulfillment since 1989 — as ongoing operations, not as a project.

PROWERB has operated fulfillment since 1989 and today moves more than 2 million shipments per year. For permanently stocked promotional items, the same-day dispatch rate is above 95 percent; notified freight-forwarder deliveries to retail and industrial sites are standard — in ongoing operations for clients such as Vaillant.

The same-day share is an operating metric for permanently stocked promotional items, not a promise for each order. Dispatch depends on available stock, complete and approved order data, the agreed cut-off and working days. We clarify the reporting period and applicable service level for your project.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about B2B fulfillment.

How does B2B fulfillment differ from B2C fulfillment?

B2B often involves receiving windows, packing rules and business purchase-order references. B2C serves private recipients. Parcel and freight shipping occur in both models; dimensions, weight and receiving conditions determine the route.

Can one provider handle B2B and B2C in parallel?

Yes, if inventory management and dispatch processes carry both stretches. PROWERB handles both: ongoing supply of retail and stores alongside dispatch from more than 50 client online shops — managed via PROWERB CORE, the company's own ERP/WMS with real-time inventory management.

What happens during load peaks, for instance during a campaign?

Ongoing operations continue; the peak is scaled separately. PROWERB increases capacity to 200 percent of baseline capacity within 24 hours and to 400 percent of baseline capacity within 72 hours — via a stand-in pool and shift operation.

How quickly do orders leave the warehouse?

For permanently stocked promotional items, the same day: the same-day dispatch rate is above 95 percent. For freight-forwarder shipments, delivery notification to the recipient is added so that delivery succeeds on the first attempt.
