March is a time for renewal – a time to shed the winter blues and embrace a fresh start. For many, this translates to a thorough spring cleaning of their homes. But what about your supply chain?

Just like your home, your supply chain can benefit from a periodic audit to identify inefficiencies, reduce costs, and improve overall performance. This March, we encourage you to conduct a thorough spring cleaning of your supply chain by focusing on these three key areas:

1. Inventory Audit:

  • The Problem: Excess inventory ties up valuable capital, increases storage costs, and risks becoming obsolete.
  • The Solution: Conduct a thorough inventory audit to identify slow-moving or obsolete stock. Utilize data analytics to review historical sales data and forecast future demand. Consider implementing inventory management techniques such as ABC analysis (classifying inventory based on value and usage) and just-in-time (JIT) inventory management to minimize excess stock.
  • Selery Fulfillment Advantage: Our advanced Warehouse Management System (WMS) provides real-time inventory visibility and data-driven insights to help you optimize stock levels, minimize waste, and maximize profitability.

2. Carrier Performance Review:

  • The Problem: Inconsistent delivery times, high shipping costs, and frequent delivery delays can negatively impact customer satisfaction and erode profitability.

  • The Solution: Analyze key performance indicators (KPIs) such as on-time delivery rates, damage rates, and shipping costs for each carrier. Identify carriers with strong performance and negotiate better rates with them. Consider diversifying your carrier network to mitigate risk and improve service reliability.

  • Selery Fulfillment Advantage: We leverage our extensive carrier network and negotiate competitive rates on your behalf. Our dedicated team monitors carrier performance closely to ensure timely and cost-effective deliveries.

3. Technology Assessment:

  • The Problem: Outdated technology can hinder efficiency, increase operational costs, and limit visibility into your supply chain.

  • The Solution: Evaluate your current warehouse management system (WMS), transportation management system (TMS), and other relevant technologies. Determine if upgrades or new solutions are needed to improve automation, data accuracy, and overall efficiency. Consider implementing technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to optimize routes, predict demand, and improve decision-making.

  • Selery Fulfillment Advantage: Our state-of-the-art WMS is powered by the latest technology, providing real-time data, advanced analytics, and seamless integration with your e-commerce platform.

By partnering with Selery Fulfillment, you can leverage our expertise and technology to streamline your supply chain operations, reduce costs, and improve customer satisfaction.

Celebrating Women at Selery: Empowering Entrepreneurs, Elevating Communities

March is National Women’s History Month, a time to honor the incredible contributions of women throughout history. At Selery, we believe in celebrating women every single day. We’re passionate about empowering women entrepreneurs, fostering a supportive environment for our team, and positively impacting the communities we serve.

We understand the unique challenges female business owners face, such as access to capital, navigating supply chains, and balancing work and family life. We strive to be a true partner, offering personalized solutions and support to help all businesses thrive.

Fueling Female-Founded Businesses:

At Selery, we aim to be more than just a 3PL provider. We want to be a true partner, offering personalized solutions and unwavering support to help all businesses thrive.

We’re proud that over 70% of our clients are women-owned businesses. By providing reliable and efficient fulfillment services, we give these entrepreneurs the time and space to focus on growing their businesses. Whether it’s streamlining order processing, managing inventory, or shipping products directly to their customers, we handle the logistics so they can pursue their passions and scale their businesses with confidence.

Our support isn’t just about business operations. It’s about fueling the dreams of women who are creating lasting impacts in their industries. When women succeed in business, the ripple effects extend to families, communities, and economies. Selery is honored to be a part of their journeys.

Investing in Our Team:

Empowering women doesn’t stop with our clients; it’s also a core part of our internal values. 90% of our warehouse team are first-generation Latin-American women, and we are incredibly proud of the strength, resilience, and talent they bring to our organization. These women are essential to our operations, and we believe in creating a workplace where every team member feels valued, respected, and empowered to reach their full potential.

We understand that empowerment starts with support. That’s why we offer competitive wages, comprehensive benefits, and growth opportunities to our employees. From ESL classes to citizenship application assistance, we’ve invested in our team’s personal and professional development to ensure they unbox their impact. By providing these opportunities, we help our team build brighter futures, both within and outside the workplace.

Giving Back to the Community:

At Selery, we give back to the community. A portion of our proceeds go directly to Help Her Rise, a non-profit organization supporting single moms. Help Her Rise provides essential resources and support to help single moms overcome financial hardship, achieve self-sufficiency, and build brighter futures for themselves and their children.

By partnering with Help Her Rise, we are able to:

  • Support single mothers in need: Contribute to programs that provide financial assistance, childcare support, and access to education and job training.

  • Empower women to break the cycle of poverty: Help single mothers achieve economic independence and build a better future for their families.

  • Make a positive impact on our community: Contribute to a more just and equitable society where all women have the opportunity to thrive.

A Commitment to Empowerment:

At Selery, we don’t just fulfill orders. We fulfill promises. We are dedicated to being a partner in the success of women-owned businesses, a supporter of our talented team, and a committed contributor to the well-being of our community. As we celebrate National Women’s History Month, we reflect on the remarkable achievements of women, but we also look to the future. Let’s continue to work toward a world where every woman can unbox her potential, reach her goals, and thrive in a supportive, equitable environment.
