InsightWhat a quiet peak season looks like from the inside
Peak season is won in June. What our planners do in the five months before the busiest weeks of the year, and why November should feel boring.

Bonded storage, pick-and-pack fulfilment, cross-docking and temperature-controlled warehousing in eighteen Haulmark facilities on six continents.
Warehousing is where a supply chain either absorbs variability or passes it on. When ships arrive late and orders spike, a good warehouse keeps your customers from noticing.
We own and run eighteen facilities, from a 450,000 square foot distribution centre in Venlo to bonded, high-value storage in Tokyo. They all run the same warehouse management system, so stock in Dallas and stock in Madrid appear in one view, with one set of reports.
Our warehouses sit beside our gateways and our trucks. Containers are unloaded the day they arrive, orders placed by 3 pm ship the same day, and returns are back on the shelf within 48 hours.
Fulfilment
Pick, pack and ship for online and wholesale orders, connected to Shopify, Amazon and the main ERPs.
Cross-docking
Receive, sort and dispatch in under 24 hours, without putting the goods into storage.
Bonded storage
Hold imported goods with duty deferred until they are sold, or re-export them without paying it at all.
Value-added services
Kitting, labelling, returns processing and light assembly, priced per unit.
Shared warehousing
Space, labour and systems shared with other clients. Flexible for seasonal volume.
