Autoship and subscription shipping from Columbus

We forecast renewal volume, pre-stage the right lots and release renewals in waves so they leave on schedule.

Heavy items such as large food bags and cat litter are packed in closely fitted cartons to control dimensional weight and damage on every renewal.
Pet retail and marketplace replenishment in Columbus
The same Columbus inventory pool can feed pet specialty retail, distributors and marketplaces. Retail purchase orders ship with the EDI documents, GS1-128 carton labels and pallet builds each vendor guide requires, while Amazon, Walmart Marketplace and TikTok Shop orders ship from the shelf next to your DTC stock.

Pet food and treat fulfillment in Columbus
Pet food fulfillment in Columbus starts at receiving: every pallet of kibble, canned food, freeze-dried food or treats is recorded by lot and best-by date before it is put away. Orders are then picked first-expiry, first-out, so customers in OH and beyond get the freshest stock and short-dated product never sits hidden at the back of a rack. Food and treats are held in clean, pest-controlled, food-grade zones away from chemicals and pesticide products. If a supplier ever flags a lot, fulfillment in Columbus can place it on hold and report exactly which orders received it.
