Lands’ End adopts Amazon’s unified inventory pool with two-to-five-day delivery
LE•Lands’ End is one of four inaugural customers using Amazon Supply Chain Services’ unified inventory pool to fulfill online and retail orders across multiple channels. The service provides ocean, air, ground and rail freight plus two-to-five-day parcel delivery and could cut Lands’ End’s logistics expenses while boosting delivery speeds.
1. Partnership Scope
Lands’ End has joined Procter & Gamble, 3M and American Eagle Outfitters as one of the first businesses to access Amazon Supply Chain Services. The company taps Amazon’s logistics infrastructure beyond marketplace selling, directly integrating inventory management and order fulfillment.
2. Logistics Network
Amazon Supply Chain Services offers ocean, air, ground and rail freight alongside warehousing and fulfillment, enabling Lands’ End to store and position stock across a single network. This breadth of transport modes aims to optimize routing and capacity.
3. Fulfillment Benefits
Through the unified inventory pool, Lands’ End can allocate stock dynamically to online, retail and wholesale channels, leveraging two-to-five-day parcel delivery and seven-day service. Faster shipping windows and network intelligence may enhance customer satisfaction and reduce backorders.
4. Financial Implications
By shifting logistics operations to Amazon’s infrastructure, Lands’ End could lower transportation and distribution costs while improving inventory turnover. The partnership may bolster operating margins and support revenue growth through improved delivery performance.
