Empowering the Growth of Dollar Shave Club with InfoShip®/Vx
Dollar Shave Club's objective was to find a solution that would allow the company to easily accommodate its massive growth, while also offering the ability to “batch” process their massively popular razor “refills.”
About the Client
Founded in 2011, and headquartered in Marina Del Ray, CA, Dollar Shave Club (DSC) is now the number one subscription e-commerce shaving and grooming company in the world.
The company currently distributes its products out of two highly automated warehouses (Torrance, California and Grove City, Ohio). After just six years, DSC now processes more than 100,000 customer orders a day. In 2016, the company was purchased by Unilever for $1 billion.
With Growth Came New Challenges
After initially outsourcing its shipping to a Third-Party Logistics (3PL) firm, in 2015, DSC decided it was going to bring shipping in-house and needed a reliable and flexible high-volume shipping system to meet their increased demand.
Their objective was to find a solution that would allow the company to easily accommodate its massive growth, while also offering the ability to “batch” process their massively popular razor “refills.” This batching would enable workers on the floor to bulk print labels, all for the same order type, and fill those orders all at the same time, in the exact location.
