The (Many!) Ways We Do Kitting and Fulfillment
Combine Your Products with Ours
When a tech company sent us thousands of promotional products they already had in-house, we sourced additional products to create a full swag kit for their tradeshow.
Assemble Curated Kits and Gift Sets
We helped an international food distributor scale their output by providing storage for their inventory and curating gift sets so they could keep up with the busy pace of Q4.
Design and Create Custom Packaging
We designed custom packaging for a lifestyle brand and packaged their products into kits for Amazon FBA to support their rapidly scaling business.
Ship Your Kits Anytime, Anywhere
A global makeup brand worked with us to design, build and send thousands of PR kits to customers and influencers to launch their new campaign.

Kitting and Fulfillment 101
So what exactly are kitting and fulfillment services? How can you decide if a kitting and fulfillment partner is right for you and your business? Let's break it down!
What is kitting and fulfillment?
Kitting and fulfillment are logistics services we offer that involves the assembly and shipment of gift boxes. Standard kitting and fulfillment services usually include (1) receiving individual pieces from clients or their vendors, (2) arranging and packaging those received items, and (3) coordinating the Who, What, Where, and When of shipment details!
Most of our clients call it putting things into a box and making it look *really* nice.
So, let’s say you have several items that need to be packaged as one unit and shipped in bulk or drop shipped to individual recipients all over — maybe it’s a bunch of branded water bottles for your customers, or 400 unicorn-themed koozies from the event that got canceled during COVID that you still have sitting on a shelf (true story!) Or maybe you’re looking for additional products to be kitted together with your own merch. Whatever it is, kitting is the solution for all of these kinds of scenarios. A kitting and fulfillment partner helps with the sorting, assembling, packaging, and shipping of items to their intended recipients.
