Stord
TL;DR
Stord is a commerce enablement platform that allows brands of all sizes to achieve Prime-like fulfillment. From pre-purchase through post delivery solutions, Stord integrates physical infrastructure, operations software, and customer-facing tech to help brands achieve a great delivery experience.
What's the backstory?
Stord began asset-light, a single “control tower” that allows shippers to manage and fulfill orders across a network of disparate partners, sales channels, and 3PLs.
In 2020, they expanded into transportation and parcel services.
In 2021, they moved into first-party fulfillment, and now operate 12 nodes across the US and Canada, with centers in the United Kingdom and the Netherlands. Their self-managed fulfillment is reinforced an expanding partner network.
Stord has built a full suite for customers’ OMS, IMS, TMS, WMS, cart pricing and delivery date promise, and post-shipment and returns experience.
While it's not required to use their entire platform, they believe the best way to create a seamless experience for customers is to have every system fully integrated and built specifically for ecommerce.
