Logistics Built Around E-commerce Brands

A sofa, fridge or fitness machine cannot move through the same process as a small parcel. It needs the right storage, protective handling, access planning and a delivery crew.

V1 Distribution provides e-commerce logistics for brands whose products need more than a doorstep drop. Warehousing, pick and pack fulfilment, white-glove delivery and reverse logistics for e-commerce sit under one roof, with one point of accountability.

That means fewer handovers, clearer stock visibility and a delivery experience that better reflects your brand.

A Complete E-commerce Logistics Service

V1 Distribution provides ecommerce logistics services UK brands can use as one connected operation. Choose the services you need, from ecommerce warehousing and D2C fulfilment to last-mile delivery, assembly and returns.

Warehousing & Inventory Management

Stock is received, checked, scanned and stored at V1 Distribution’s West Midlands facility. The Warehouse Management System tracks goods from arrival to dispatch and gives your team real-time inventory visibility.

Shopify fulfilment, Amazon and eBay integration, and direct retail orders can feed into one inventory and order-management workflow.

  • Goods-in inspection and scanning
  • Ecommerce inventory management
  • Real-time stock visibility
  • Shopify, Amazon and eBay integration
  • Secure storage for bulky, fragile and high-value goods
  • Reporting across stock, orders and returns

Fulfilment & Distribution

Orders flow into the fulfilment queue, where products are picked, checked, packed and prepared for the right delivery service. V1 Distribution supports ecommerce fulfilment services for direct-to-consumer, marketplace and multichannel brands.

Ecommerce distribution services then move each order through the selected network, from standard dispatch requirements to specialist two-person home delivery.

  • Ecommerce order fulfilment
  • Pick and pack fulfilment
  • D2C and multichannel fulfilment
  • Product and component checks
  • Protective packing for fragile or bulky items
  • UK-wide distribution

White Glove Delivery

V1 Distribution’s trained crews provide two-man delivery for products that should not be left at the door. Orders can be carried to the customer’s room of choice, unpacked, positioned and recorded at the point of delivery.

White-glove delivery keeps the final mile controlled, visible and better suited to high-value goods.

  • Two-person specialist crews
  • Room-of-choice placement
  • Three-hour delivery windows with pre-arrival customer updates and live tracking
  • Signature and photo confirmation
  • Packaging and old-item removal where agreed

Assembly & Installation

Furniture, appliances and suitable fixtures can be assembled or installed during the same visit. The crew completes the agreed work and checks the item before leaving.

This removes another supplier handover and gives the customer a finished product rather than boxes left in the hallway.

  • Same-visit delivery and assembly
  • Furniture, appliance and fixture support
  • Functionality checks and packaging removal
  • One crew from arrival to sign-off

Returns & Reverse Logistics

V1 Distribution manages bulky and high-value returns from the customer back through the supply chain. Collections are scheduled, products are handled by two-person teams, and condition is recorded with photographs and written reports.

The next step can then be agreed: restock, refurbish, resell, recycle or return to the brand.

  • Customer collection scheduling with room-of-choice collection and disassembly where required
  • Condition inspection and grading with photographic evidence
  • Return to stock or retailer
  • Reporting and audit trail

We have been using V1 Distribution for just over two years, and the communication between us and their team is outstanding; nothing is ever any trouble for them. They provide excellent service to our customers, offering full tracking from the moment items are received at their warehouse through to final delivery. Our previous carrier was known for missing items, damaged goods, and late deliveries, but this has not been an issue with V1. On the rare occasion that a delivery issue occurs, we are informed immediately, allowing us to update the customer promptly. As a result, customer complaints are almost unheard of. I would highly recommend V1 to anyone looking for a customer service–focused team that delivers on time and handles orders with the utmost care.
