Shipping

Shipping in e-commerce is the entire process that takes place from a customer placing the order to the vendor or store owner dispatching the product for delivery through the delivery partner or the supply chain established.

Right from packing the product to making the necessary alterations to the packaging by the fulfillment partner for safer delivery, all the steps in between are a part of the shipping. With the increased competition in the market, the ideal scenario for any store owner or e-commerce vendor is to reduce the shipping time and to make it seamless for a smoother and hassle-free delivery.
