Core offering

Bray Solutions provides third-party logistics (3PL) services for ecommerce brands and retailers, encompassing warehousing, inventory management, pick and pack, contract packing, shipping coordination, and returns/reverse logistics. Services are delivered from its East Anglia-based facilities (28 warehouse units at Kings Cliffe) using a modern Warehouse Management System that enables real-time inventory visibility, multi-channel order capture (Shopify, Amazon, WooCommerce), and BRCGS-accredited ambient food storage for food-sector clients.

Product overview

Bray Solutions operates as a third-party logistics (3PL) provider offering a unified suite of logistics services structured around a core warehousing and fulfilment platform. The core offering spans 3PL Services, Warehousing & Storage, Ecommerce Fulfilment, Shipping, Contract Packing, and Returns & Reverse Logistics — all underpinned by a Warehouse Management System (WMS) that provides real-time inventory visibility and multi-channel order management. These core services are extended by industry-specific fulfilment solutions for Pet Supplies, Consumer Goods & Retail, Garden & Pest Control, and Food & Drink sectors. The modular architecture allows ecommerce brands to engage individual service lines (e.g., standalone contract packing or returns management) or procure the full end-to-end 3PL package.
