Testimonials

Cards for Good Causes (CFGC) has worked with The Fulfilment Store since the year 2000. The work has included the receipt of stock from up to forty charities, the ‘pick and pack’ of stock into ‘starter packs’, the distribution of initial and replenishment stock to three hundred and fifty outlets, the provision of a telephone/email ordering facility and the collection, collation and count of returned stock at the end of the trading season. For the 2009 trading season, 1,600,000 packs of cards were distributed to our shops.
CFCG’s operation is not standard or straightforward due to the diversity of stock requirements and the location and opening hours of the shops. It is also very time critical. Therefore, our organisation needs an extremely efficient fulfilment and distribution service.
Over the past ten years, The Fulfilment Store has provided CFGC with an excellent service not only with fulfilment and distribution but also with the development of IT systems specifically tailored to CFGC’s needs. Their client support is also superb both to our head office in general and to our area staff and shop managers throughout the trading season. Our shop managers, for example, are always very complimentary about the accuracy of the ‘pick and pack’ and the support they receive from the very friendly call centre staff.
All of us at CFGC would have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending The Fulfilment Store to your charity.
With kind regards
Yours Sincerely

THREE
THREE is a mobile operator in the telecoms arena, our market is dynamic and fast paced and so is the pace we work at. We therefore need partners that can respond to our demands, often at the 11th hour!
I worked on what was a very thorough process for re-tendering our POS handling and distribution.
We appointed TFS in 2008 as they demonstrated they could deliver what we needed from a POS Fulfilment supplier. In addition to the below measurements, it was the people and culture at TFS that gave me the confidence they were the right partner for us:
- Online ordering for our retail stores and other sales channels
- Ability to produce bespoke kits specific to each store, ensuring stores don't receive POS they don't need
- Ability to deliver us cost savings
– both in print and distribution costs.
We're now better able to service our stores with Access-24 the online ordering system which has images of all items available. Stores can order track their orders, with live PODs. We're able to restrict the number of orders the stores place each month, so we can manage our monthly costs.
We receive an excellent service from TFS; we keep them very busy and often throw in a challenge! But because we have a very good working relationship with them, we always manage to get the kits out the door on time.

Teenage Cancer Trust
We have been working with TFS for the past two years and are more than happy to recommend them to any prospective client. We have found their team to be totally supportive of all our needs, pro-active in our constant attempt to reduce costs and keep things running smoothly, and reactive to any problems or queries that may arise. They are always willing to sit down and discuss any new issues or situations and are very adaptable. They offer an efficient and friendly service, and are very easy and pleasant to work with.
Sharp UK
Sharp UK faced the challenge of finding a new fulfilment and call handling operation, with the added pressure of going live within 2 months of starting the review process, as an increase in costs from the current supplier had prompted Sharp to look for a new operation.
The key requirements Sharp were looking for in a new supplier were as follows:
- The ability to offer both fulfilment and call handling on one site
- Competitive rates for both fulfilment and call handling
- The ability to meet strict KPIs set by Sharp
- A company who can offer ordering and PODs online
- A company with a central location in the UK
- A company with a flexible and positive ‘can do’ attitude
Sharp conducted their initial research online looking at 8 or 9 companies. After careful assessment of the online research Sharp identified 3 companies they believed could meet their requirements. The next stage in the process was to meet with the 3 companies identified, for face-to-face meetings to see first hand the companies offices, call handling operations and warehouse functions and then to evaluate at the line-by-line costs for the services Sharp were looking for each company to supply.“After the first meetings with the three potential suppliers it was evident that there was only one company who could meet the requirements that Sharp were looking for from its new call handling and fulfilment operation, and that was TFS”, commented Martin Arnold, Marketing Communications Manager. “I was particularly impressed by the enthusiastic, can-do attitude that came across during our meetings, the systems the company uses, in particular Access24 the company’s online ordering and stock management system, the professionalism of the call handling team and the competitive rates”. “The movement of stock from our previous supplier to TFS happened without any glitches and the prompt booking in of stock and allocation in the warehouse enabled us to be fully functional before the ‘go live’ date we had set during our first meeting”.
“TFS have now been providing our call handling and fulfilment operations for 4 months. In that time I have been impressed by the high level of service we have received. From my side, I have received positive comments internally, praising the online stock ordering and management system, Access24 and the professionalism of the call handling team. TFS have justified our decision to move our operations to a new supplier and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to any other company looking for a professional, slick call handling and fulfilment operation”.

National Blood Service
Since awarding The Fulfilment Store our Marketing Services storage and distribution contract, I have been very impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail. They consistently deliver a high level of service and have been integral in moving NHS Blood and Transplant’s storage and fulfilment services forward. The full range of management reporting tools available through Access 24, TFS’ real-time management system, have been key to the development of our services. The flexibility of the team at TFS and their ‘can-do’ attitude has been crucial to meeting and exceeding our changing requirements and lead-times.

RNIB
"The Fulfilment Store offered RNIB the advantage of a scalable service, efficiently managing the Christmas catalogue customer orders in peak season whilst providing an equally good operation in the quiet and non-trading months. The transition to TFS was painless (practically seamless from the customer's point of view) and provided many new services and functionality which favourably added to the customer experience and substantially assisted RNIB productivity. There is no 'best thing' about TFS as their whole service is tailored to each client. Customers were happy - our complaint levels dropped by nearly 100%, the online reporting was easy to use, goods were sent out on time and arrived in good condition and the staff are personable, focussed and their 'can do' attitude is totally refreshing!"
