FAQ:

(for Footware)
How do you handle the complexity of large size and color grids?
Our WMS is designed to manage deep SKU architectures. Every unique combination of model, size, width, and color is tracked in real-time. This ensures 99.9% picking accuracy even during high-volume periods, preventing the common industry issue of shipping the wrong size to the customer.
What steps do you take to protect original shoe boxes during shipping?
We understand that the shoe box is part of the product’s value. We use footwear-specific pick routes and offer double-boxing or reinforced outer packaging options. This ensures that the original branded box arrives at the customer's door in pristine, collector-ready condition.
How does your footwear-specific returns process work?
Returns are a reality in footwear, so we make them an asset. Each returned pair undergoes a professional inspection: we check for wear, verify completeness, and perform shoe box restoration if needed. Eligible items are quickly refurbished and restocked, maximizing your resale opportunities and protecting your margins.
Can you handle high-heat sneaker drops or limited edition launches?
Absolutely. Our EU network in Germany, Poland, and France is built for scalability. We can coordinate with your team to prepare for "hype" drops, ensuring that our fulfillment centers are staffed and ready to maintain same-day dispatch even when order volumes spike instantly.
