Fulfillment & Logistics

How does Materialogic ensure fast and accurate order fulfillment?

We ensure fast and accurate order fulfillment by leveraging advanced WMS technology and optimizing warehouse operations for maximum efficiency. Our powerful WMS, Infoplus, provides real-time inventory tracking, automated order processing, and seamless integration with multiple sales channels to minimize errors and delays. Coupled with our well-organized warehouses and proven fulfillment processes, we ensure that every order is picked, packed, and shipped precisely — helping businesses meet customer expectations with speed and accuracy.

Our advanced WMS technology provides real-time inventory visibility and order tracking to manage these different order streams efficiently. In our warehouses, we strategically set up dedicated production lines to handle each order type with precision and maintain fast, accurate, and scalable fulfillment — no matter how your customers shop.

What’s the typical turnaround time for processing and shipping orders?

The typical turnaround time for processing and shipping orders at Materialogic is a next-day SLA with a 2:00 PM CST cutoff time. Orders received before this cutoff will be processed and shipped out the following day. 

For businesses with urgent fulfillment needs, a same-day SLA is available with a 12:00 PM CST cutoff time. Additionally, Materialogic’s central Midwest location enables us to reach 90% of the country in three days or less via small parcel shipments.

Orders placed after the cutoff will be processed the following business day to help maintain consistency and meet your customers’ expectations for timely delivery.
