How a Soil Brand Cut Bulky Delivery Times By 60%

Shipping bulky products fast is one of the toughest challenges in supply chain.

Margins are thin. Customers expect instant delivery. And the old model of shipping cross-country from a few warehouses just doesn’t cut it anymore.

A fast-growing organic gardening brand ran into the same wall last year - until they rebuilt their supply chain from the ground up.

They partnered with WARP, a middle-mile platform, to forward-deploy inventory, sync inbound and outbound moves, and upgrade last-mile delivery - cutting shipping times from 5 days to 2 days in under 6 months.

I sat down with Daniel Sokolovsky (CEO of WARP) to break down exactly how they did it - and wrote a playbook you can follow with insights from that conversation.

If you’re trying to speed up bulky fulfillment (without blowing up costs), you’ll find this useful.

Keep shipping 💪
