“RSL works collaboratively with its clients to assess their fulfillment and shipping needs and leverage RSL’s facility and carrier network in the most effective manner possible to meet consumer demand,” Manzione added. “RSL’s newest product, Xparcel Expedited, is a groundbreaking, cost-effective shipping solution that provides two- to five-day transit times with lower costs, allowing small to mid-size e-commerce retailers to compete with larger brands.”

E-commerce fulfillment is the series of steps an order goes through from the moment a customer places an order online until that order is delivered to its final destination. These steps include receiving, processing, selecting, packaging, and shipping (transporting) orders. Depending on the size of a business (among other factors), a business may choose to handle e-commerce fulfillment in-house or use a fulfillment center or provider.

Over the past 20 years, RSL has successfully evolved with the ever-changing eCommerce industry to stay ahead in the order fulfillment industry and position itself as a leader in the 3PL business.

Two person coverage is standard in stores that used to have double or triple that when just asking them to ship from store could have been accomplished without too much work. Adding “one more thing” dilutes any meaningful help in the brick-and-mortar locations if allowed to happen when the store is open.
