Source Logistics: Value Added Services

Do you experience any of the following?

Compliance is a moving target.	Evolving packaging and labeling standards from big-box retailers can be hard to keep up with. The risk of chargebacks or lost shelf space isn’t worth it — but internal teams are often stuck chasing specs and fixing mistakes that should’ve been avoided.
Too many vendors slow you down.	When kitting, labeling, and shipping are spread across multiple providers, delays and errors become the norm. Managing those handoffs drains your time and adds complexity that makes it hard to scale.
You need speed and flexibility.	Whether it’s a last-minute retail promo, influencer kit, or new bundle, rigid systems can delay launches and hurt sales. If your current provider can’t pivot fast, you miss the window.
Sales channels are siloed.	Ecommerce, retail, and wholesale often have different packaging needs — but when you manage them separately, you get inefficiencies, inventory issues, and mistakes. Integrated execution across channels is critical to keeping up.
The customer experience is on the line.	Poor unboxing or damaged displays impact brand perception. Your packaging is an extension of your brand — and it deserves care and precision, whether it’s going to a doorstep or store shelf.
You can’t fix what you can’t see.	Without real-time visibility into value-added workflows like kitting or repacking, it’s tough to stay ahead. Lack of insight leads to late reactions, more errors, and frustrated teams.
Fixing errors shouldn’t be your full-time job.	When packaging or labeling goes wrong, your ops team spends time correcting issues that should’ve been done right the first time. That friction adds cost and kills momentum.
Traceability matters.	For food, beverage, and healthcare products, lot control and expiration tracking during VAS are non-negotiable. If traceability breaks down during repackaging, the risks are real.
You’ve outgrown the old way of doing things.	Whether it's internal fulfillment or a legacy 3PL, what worked before might now be the bottleneck. VAS complexity is growing, and without the right systems or scale, it starts to show up in missed SLAs and customer experience issues.
