Kitting and Assembly

Many fulfillment centers offer kitting and assembly services for ecommerce businesses.  3PL providers will assemble multiple items into a “kit” so that the item may be sold a single SKU.

What is kitting and assembly?

Kitting, sometimes called “product bundling”, is the process of packaging two or more related items together to be sold as one single item or “kit”.  Items can be kitted in advance of customers purchasing the single SKU or single item online. The manual labor and handling necessary for kitting assembly can make it a time-consuming and costly process.  Some online businesses will have their manufacturer kit items together before sending to the fulfillment center.

Assembly is the process of arranging all the items of a “kit” and preparing it for shipment.  Assembly is usually done in bulk to lower costs. There are instances where the product is not fully assembled and arrives in pieces that need to be put together at the fulfillment center.

What kind of ecommerce business needs kitting and assembly solutions?

Your ecommerce business may need kitting and assembly services if you’re working with multiple manufacturers that are sending separate pieces of your kit to your fulfillment center.  Some online retailers want to add a free gift, product sample or marketing brochure to each shipment.
