Logistics control and
visibility, like never before

Most 3PLs only tell you something's gone wrong after your customer already knows. Bigblue puts orders, inventory, delivery and returns in one real-time view, so you can catch a delay or a stock issue before it turns into a support ticket. When you need an answer, it's usually already in front of you.

Yes, and we treat it as standard. We ship across the UK from our Northampton warehouse using the carriers your customers already trust, like Royal Mail, UPS, Evri and Amazon Shipping, with the best carrier and service picked for each postcode. It's worth getting right at the first order: you've already paid to win the customer, and a late or damaged first parcel usually costs you the repeat purchase that made the acquisition worthwhile. That first delivery is one of the biggest drivers of repeat rate and lifetime value.

Returns run through a branded self-serve portal. Your customer starts the return, chooses an outcome, and gets a printerless label, which helps since most UK shoppers don't own a printer. The portal puts exchanges and Store Credit ahead of refunds, and around 45% of shoppers choose Store Credit, spending roughly +€39 more on average. Every return comes back to the same warehouse that ships your orders, where it's received, inspected and photographed, so you can approve refunds based on what actually arrived. And because customers track their own returns, your team fields far fewer tickets even as volumes grow.

You see live order and inventory status, delivery events and returns as they happen, rather than waiting for a weekly report. That means you can catch a delay risk, a lost parcel or a stock mismatch while there's still time to act. Your customers stay informed too: our tracking pages and emails get a 73% open rate, which keeps a lot of questions out of your support inbox.

Yes to both. You start with UK fulfilment from Northampton, with UK carriers and performance monitoring built in. When you're ready for Europe, you expand on the same platform without switching partners or rebuilding integrations. We run 9 warehouses across Europe, including in France, Spain and Germany, and we handle international shipping end-to-end.

We plan for peak well ahead of time. The same warehouse and platform scale with your volume, carrier selection adjusts automatically, and returns hold up when orders spike. Your Black Friday and product-drop days should feel much like a normal week on your side.

Most brands go live within a few weeks, depending on how quickly inventory transfers. You get a dedicated onboarding lead with clear owners and deadlines, pre-built Shopify and core-stack integrations, and a parallel run so you can test real orders before switching over fully. There isn't much on your side: once your store and inventory connect, your ops lead helps us agree cut-offs, SLAs and any special handling, and your engineers usually just confirm the integrations.

Shopify, plus your core post-purchase stack. Orders and inventory sync in automatically, delivery and tracking events flow back out, and returns data lands where you need it. Your CRM, support and marketing tools all work from the same live information, so nobody's stuck relying on an out-of-date export.
