Build an Agile, Lower-Cost Fulfillment Network
Actionable network design for eCommerce, omnichannel retail, 3PLs, and private equity operators—grounded in your real data, not theory.
The Hardest Supply Chain Decision to Undo
Designing your supply chain network is one of the highest-leverage—and most irreversible—decisions an eCommerce, retail, or consumer goods business makes. Where you place warehouses, how inventory flows, which nodes serve which regions, and whether to introduce cross-docks or pop-ups can lock in 60–80% of your long-term logistics cost structure. Once those decisions are made, changing direction is expensive, slow, and disruptive.
Most network decisions fail because they rely on:
Generic calculators that ignore real shipping behavior
Real-estate–driven assumptions disconnected from fulfillment economics
Consulting models that lack practical eCommerce context
FlexChain takes a different approach. We use your actual shipping, demand, and planning data to model the true impact of every option—across parcel, LTL, FTL, inbound freight, seasonality, customer geography, and SKU mix. Whether you’re opening your first warehouse, optimizing a multi-node network, or entering a new market, we deliver a decision-ready network blueprint that reduces cost, improves speed-to-customer, and lets you scale with clarity—not guesswork.
What We Do Differently
Real data, not theoretical models – We use your actual orders, shipments, planning inputs, and SKU-level demand to quantify the true cost and service impact of every node—across parcel, LTL/FTL, inbound freight, and zone-skipping.
Built for real eCommerce operations – Our models reflect lived reality: 2-day SLAs, carrier mix, packaging constraints, returns flows, peak-season volatility, and full attribution of marketing, fulfillment, and transportation cost.
End-to-end network architecture—not just warehouses – Beyond site selection, we design cross-docks, regional consolidation points, zone-skip nodes, and pop-up replenishment flows to maximize your existing footprint.
Expansion-ready modeling for new markets – We evaluate the economics behind domestic and international expansion, including distribution hub design, inbound flow changes, and phased go-to-market scenarios.
Decision-ready outputs for leadership – Clear visuals, transparent assumptions, ROI models, ramp timelines, and “good / better / best” options—so founders, operators, and PE teams can move forward with confidence.
