How Stewart Simmons Handled their Logistics:
Stewart Simmons distributes their products through two main channels: wholesale and e-commerce. With the excitement of football season peaking in the fall, they ship around 30,000 units in just one week. Before teaming up with All Points, Stewart Simmons managed their own warehouse, juggling product reception, order processing, and shipping all in-house. This hands-on approach limited their ability to scale sales effectively and stunted their growth potential.
Stewart Simmons was ready to expand but was held back by high labor and overhead costs. Their small team struggled to keep up with the growing demand, making it tough to scale their business. The variability between orders complicated their manual processes, revealing significant scalability issues. Realizing the need for a more efficient solution to handle their growth and operational complexity, Stewart Simmons set out to find a better way forward.
All Points stepped up to handle Stewart Simmons' complex orders and high-volume demands with flawless accuracy. We collaborated closely with their team to understand their specific needs and challenges. An account executive, who became an expert in Stewart Simmons' supply chain, was assigned to ensure a smooth process. By implementing advanced inventory management and a robust order management system (OMS), we streamlined their operations.
Even with over 4,000 SKUs, our team quickly mobilized to process a wide variety of orders efficiently. We ensured precise order processing and effective shipping solutions, enabling Stewart Simmons to scale their business effortlessly and meet the growing customer demand.

Client Feedback
We used to handle all fulfillment needs internally and would constantly have to limit our sales potential due to our ability to fulfill in time. Since All Points has taken over, we have been able to fully offload our fulfillment services and focus on running our business and driving sales. We have a seasonal business that necessitates shipping a large quantity of products in a short period of time and the team at All Points gets it done.
