Use Nearby Fulfillment Centers
Decentralize your inventory by storing goods closer to the target delivery area. This reduces long-haul transport, shortens delivery time, and cuts fuel and labor expenses. For example, an eCommerce brand selling pan-India can use third-party warehouses in metros. When a local order comes in, it’s fulfilled from the nearest point, not the main hub. This “hub-and-spoke” model is widely used by Amazon, Flipkart, and Blinkit.
