Is your online shop growing, but are storage, stock counts and order peaks taking up more and more time? When you outsource your stock, Titan Fulfilment takes over the logistics execution, from receipt and put-away to real-time stock updates, order processing and returns. That way, you keep control of your stock, while we take care of a scalable process and fast distribution to the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and other European destinations. Want to know exactly how that process works? Take a look at Outsourcing your stock: how does it work?.
When does it make sense to outsource fulfilment?
Outsourcing stock management or warehouse management becomes worthwhile as soon as in-house logistics starts to hold back your growth. Think of too little online shop storage, rising error rates, manual stock corrections or a team that is mainly busy with operational tasks. When you sell through multiple channels, an up-to-date stock level is also essential. An external fulfilment partner helps you structure your processes, scale up and down faster and keep your delivery promises more reliably.
- Your storage space is persistently full.
- Stock levels do not match your online shop or system.
- Order volumes fluctuate due to promotions, seasons or growth.
- You want to spend less time on logistics and more on the commercial side.

How our stock management works in practice
Good stock management requires fixed processes, up-to-date data and short lines of communication. That is why we align stock, order processing and transport in one clear workflow. Also take a look at our tips for effective stock management.
1. Receipt and put-away
On arrival, new stock is checked, registered and put away in a logical warehouse location. We look at quantities, item information and practical handling. For products where sequence matters, we set up the stock logic accordingly, for example with FIFO for date- or batch-sensitive items. This keeps your product range clear and ready to use.
2. Real-time insight and integrations
Through integrations with your online shop, marketplace or other systems, orders and stock movements are processed automatically. You keep insight into available quantities, reservations and processed shipments without manual updating. This reduces the risk of overselling, prevents delays in the picking flow and makes it easier to adjust course when volumes increase.
3. Replenishment, processing and returns
As soon as orders come in, picking, packing and dispatch connect directly to the current stock. Returns are also checked and, where possible, added back to stock. Because stock management and fulfilment come together in one process, you can deliver faster and plan better. We keep communication personal and transparent, so that you can respond quickly if anything changes.
What does outsourcing stock management cost?
The costs depend on your product range, storage volume, stock turnover and number of orders. Packaging, returns, B2B shipments and additional tasks can also play a part. On the other hand, your fixed costs often become more manageable: less warehouse space of your own, less pressure on staff and lower costs from errors caused by incorrect picks or stock discrepancies. With outsourced warehouse management, you usually pay more on a usage basis, which makes scaling up during growth or peak periods easier. Request our overview of rates and costs for more information.
- Storage per pallet, bin, shelf or location
- Handling for receipt, picking and packing
- Shipping costs per carrier and destination
- Additional services such as kitting or returns processing
An appropriate price therefore depends on your order profile, number of SKUs and desired service level. Transparency in advance is essential.
