The Challenge: Managing High Volume Amazon Vendor Operations
Phoenix House International, a leading sports supplier across the UK and Europe, manages over £30M/year in Amazon Vendor sales. While Linnworks served as their order management system, its built-in Amazon Vendor integration wasn’t meeting their needs for critical processes like shipment creation and ASN (Advanced Shipping Notifications).
As Amazon sales grew, the company faced challenges:
- Intensive manual processes: Allocating stock, accepting orders, and processing shipments required hours of admin work every week.
- Weekend workloads: Orders received over the weekend created a backlog, demanding staff availability on Saturdays and early Mondays.
- Inefficient workflows: Entering data via large spreadsheets slowed operations and increased the risk of errors.
The team needed a solution that could integrate seamlessly with Linnworks while unlocking Amazon-specific functionality to scale their business.
