Your agile and reliable 3PL logistics

As a 3PL provider, we use a multi-carrier network: Colissimo, Chronopost, Mondial Relay, UPS, DHL and other partners depending on your needs. The carrier is selected based on destination country, weight and the delivery time required, to optimise both your shipping costs and your customers’ delivery experience, in France and internationally.

3PL (Third Party Logistics) means entrusting all or part of your logistics operations to a specialised third-party logistics provider, rather than managing them in-house.

What a 3PL handles

A 3PL handles goods receipt, warehouse storage, order picking, packing, multi-carrier shipping and returns management, all while connecting to your online store.

A 3PL built for e-commerce

Iziship is a 3PL provider specialised in e-commerce: high volumes of single-item orders, regular returns, intense peaks and high customer-experience standards. Our warehouses in France and Spain serve all of Europe with consistent standards.

The benefit for your brand

By outsourcing to a 3PL, you turn fixed costs into variable costs and refocus on product, marketing and brand, while a partner manages your flows day to day.

Which brands is it for?

The 3PL model is designed for DTC brands, growing e-merchants and those moving away from dropshipping to hold their own stock while outsourcing fulfilment. You stay in control of your brand; we handle operations. In short, 3PL logistics lets you ship faster, more reliably and at lower cost, while keeping control of your brand and your customer experience.

These terms overlap, but they don’t mean exactly the same thing.

3PL (Third Party Logistics) 3PL refers to a third-party logistics provider that handles all or part of your logistics operations. It’s a broad view of outsourced logistics.

Fulfillment Fulfillment refers more specifically to executing e-commerce orders: storage, picking, shipping and returns. It’s a core building block of 3PL, focused on operations.

In practice at Iziship We cover both: order execution (fulfillment) and broader management of your supply chain (3PL), with freight brokerage, CMS/ERP integration and real-time tracking. One consistent approach, from a single parcel to your logistics strategy.

Why the distinction matters Choosing a partner that covers both fulfillment and 3PL avoids multiplying intermediaries: one provider for storage, picking, transport and returns, with real-time visibility across all your flows. Whatever the term, what matters is working with a logistics provider that truly understands e-commerce constraints, not just warehousing. At Iziship, you have a single contact for the whole chain, which simplifies management and speeds up problem-solving.

A 3PL service covers the entire operational supply chain, from the arrival of your products to the processing of returns.

Goods receipt and warehouse storage

Supplier receipt, quantity and quality checks, put-away in optimised locations. Warehouse storage is secure and scalable to your volumes, with real-time inventory.

Order picking and packing

Picking is accurate, checked and video-recorded on request to drastically reduce disputes. Custom packaging (boxes, void fill, inserts) enhances unboxing and customer loyalty.

Multi-carrier shipping and returns

Shipping goes through a network of negotiated carriers, automatically selected by country, weight and delivery time. Returns management includes inspection, restocking or disposal according to your rules, and automatic updates to your CMS.

Additional services

Beyond the core offering, we provide video-recorded order preparation for traceability, eco-designed branded packaging, and handling of B2B and retail flows (labelling, compliance). Each service is activated according to your actual needs, with no unnecessary extra cost. Every part of this 3PL service is modular: you only activate what you need and expand the scope as you grow. We also adapt throughput and quality checks to the nature of your products, whether fragile, bulky or fast-moving.

Outsourcing to a 3PL changes your day-to-day in several concrete, measurable ways.

Make your logistics costs variable

Your logistics costs adjust to your actual activity, with no excessive fixed costs: you only pay for what is processed. You also save time on operations and can refocus on product and marketing strategy.

Absorb peaks and make delivery times reliable

You handle order peaks (Black Friday, sales, launches) without emergency hiring, while improving shipping times and service consistency.

Reduce errors and keep visibility

WMS processes and quality checks reduce picking errors. You keep real-time visibility over your stock, orders, statuses and returns via a dashboard.

Refocus on your brand

By handing operations to a 3PL provider, you free up time and energy for marketing, acquisition and product. Your logistics adapts to your growth instead of holding it back, with a dedicated contact by your side. In other words, 3PL outsourcing isn’t just about subcontracting parcels: it’s a lever for performance, profitability and peace of mind for your e-commerce business. The result: controlled logistics costs, in-house teams freed from operations and the ability to grow without logistics becoming a bottleneck.

3PL onboarding follows a clear process, designed to connect your e-commerce business to our logistics system without interrupting your activity.

Audit and catalogue import

We audit your flows and tech stack (CMS, ERP, carriers), then import your product catalogue, SKUs and stock history. CMS / ERP connection We set up the technical connection to your CMS or ERP (Shopify, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Magento) and test the synchronisation of orders, statuses and stock.

Stock transfer and go-live

Your stock is transferred to our warehouses in France and/or Spain depending on your markets. Go-live follows, with close monitoring during the first weeks to stabilise throughput.

A launch with no disruption

The whole process takes a few days to a few weeks depending on complexity, with a test phase before launch. The goal: switch to 3PL logistics without ever interrupting your sales or affecting your delivery times. From go-live, you have a dashboard to track stock, orders and shipments in real time, and a dedicated contact to make adjustments along the way.

A generalist 3PL optimised for B2B pallets doesn’t handle single-item orders from a DTC website in the same way.

High volumes of single-item orders

E-commerce means lots of small orders to pick quickly and without errors. Iziship was designed from the start for these single-item flows, with adapted picking processes.

Returns and peaks under control

Regular returns and intense peaks (Black Friday, launches) are part of everyday e-commerce. Our organisation absorbs them without affecting your delivery times.

A protected customer experience

Responsiveness, video-recorded order preparation and real-time tracking protect your customer ratings. That’s the difference between simple warehousing and a 3PL partner that speaks e-commerce.

Warehouses calibrated for e-commerce

Our warehouses in France and Spain apply consistent standards to serve all of Europe. Organisation, WMS processes and teams are designed for e-commerce, not for industrial pallet storage. This e-commerce specialisation is what makes the difference between a simple warehouse and a true 3PL partner able to support your growth over the long term. Our processes are designed for high volumes of single-item orders and strong e-commerce seasonality, whereas a generalist mainly thinks in terms of regular B2B volumes.

At Iziship, 3PL pricing is transparent and adjusts to your actual activity.

Variable pricing, no hidden fees

There are no hidden fees, no unnecessary commitment and no superfluous subscription. Each service is defined according to your needs: storage, picking, packing, shipping, returns. You know exactly what you’re paying for.

What determines the price

The cost of a 3PL service depends on your order volume, number of SKUs, product type, storage space, level of customisation and the carriers used.

Minimum volume and flexibility

You don’t need to ship thousands of parcels a month, but a minimum volume makes 3PL outsourcing truly cost-effective. Tell us about your business: we’ll quickly let you know whether Iziship is the right fit and which option to choose.

The easiest way is to estimate your needs in 60 seconds: you get a clear price range and a detailed 3PL assessment within 24 hours, with no commitment.
