Some of the challenges facing e-commerce in Kenya include high costs of delivery, deadlines among others.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

For an e-commerce on Sendy, when an order is placed, Sendy picks up the product, packages it, and delivers it on behalf of the retailer.

The festive season is here. Christmas has already melted away and the New Year is fast-approaching. It is the season of greetings, peace and gifting.

Although this season too came in the middle of the pandemic, it has presented an opportunity for family and friends to come together, reflect and enjoy the moment.

It is at this time that most online businesses flourish. It is at this time that people place their orders for various products and services; electronics and consumables.

When one is buying someone something, say a gift, they want it in perfect condition, well-packaged and most importantly, delivered on time. But does it always happen?

For most e-commerce platforms in Kenya, logistical challenges often reign supreme when it comes to giving their customers the best. Most of them run into losses due to breakages, cancelled orders due to delays among others.

But this festive season, Sendy came to the rescue of e-commerce. They sent up a Sendy Fulfillment Centre that is tailored towards e-commerce and direct-to-consumer businesses that do not have storage capacity.

With Sendy Fulfillment, retailers are able to pick, pack, and ship any order to their customers without having to worry about delays, breakages or other challenges associated with logistics.

How does it work? Easy. When an order is placed, Sendy ships them on the retailer’s behalf.

With this, the retailer experiences low delivery fees that include picking up the shipment from the vendor’s location, three shipping attempts, 60 days of storage, and inventory tracking.

There is also the inventory  tracking which allows customers to follow the exact position of their orders while they are in transit. They can also choose a delivery time and location that is convenient for them.

Sendy Fulfillment is a new way of e-commerce that gives retailers powers over their business. All they will have to do is have great products that will attract customers to them.
