B2B Fulfillment Services
Wholesale, retail, and purchase order fulfillment for manufacturers, distributors, and B2B ecommerce brands in Canada.
Ottawa Logistics delivers B2B fulfillment services designed for the complexity and scale of business-to-business logistics. Whether you’re fulfilling purchase orders for major retailers, distributing to wholesale accounts, or managing a B2B ecommerce channel, our comprehensive fulfillment services support your order fulfillment requirements with accuracy and reliability.
Understanding B2B Fulfillment
What Is B2B Fulfillment?
B2B fulfillment is the process of receiving, storing, and shipping orders to business customers—retailers, distributors, wholesalers, and other commercial buyers. Unlike D2C fulfillment, which focuses on individual consumer orders, B2B order fulfillment typically involves larger quantities, case or pallet shipments, and formal purchase order documentation.
Successful B2B fulfillment services require specialized capabilities: accurate inventory allocation, compliance with retailer routing guides, proper labeling and documentation, and coordination with freight carriers for delivery to distribution centers or retail locations.
While ecommerce fulfillment prioritizes speed and individual package handling, B2B fulfillment prioritizes accuracy, documentation, and meeting the specific requirements of each business customer. Both are critical for brands operating across multiple channels.

B2B Order Fulfillment Process
How It Works
Our B2B order fulfillment services follow a structured process designed for accuracy, compliance, and visibility at every stage.
Step 1
Purchase Order Receipt
Orders from retailers, distributors, or your B2B ecommerce platform flow into our system with all routing and compliance requirements captured.
Step 2
Inventory Allocation
Our system allocates inventory at the case or pallet level, ensuring accurate fulfillment against purchase order specifications.
Step 3
Pick, Pack & Palletize
Trained teams pick by case or unit, pack to retailer requirements, and palletize shipments with proper labeling and documentation.
Step 4
Shipment Coordination
We coordinate freight pickups, manage carrier scheduling, and ensure on-time delivery to distribution centers and retail locations.
Step 5
Reporting & Reconciliation
Comprehensive reporting provides visibility into order status, shipment confirmations, and inventory reconciliation.
Our B2B fulfillment process integrates with inventory management and receiving operations to maintain accuracy from inbound through outbound.
Wholesale Fulfillment
Wholesale Distribution
Wholesale fulfillment requires a different approach than direct-to-consumer shipping. Orders are larger, delivery windows are tighter, and the requirements of each buyer may differ significantly.

Our wholesale capabilities include pallet building, mixed-SKU case packing, and coordination with freight forwarding services for efficient delivery to distribution centers and retail locations nationwide.

Purchase Order Fulfillment
PO-Based Workflows
When your business customers submit purchase orders, they expect precise execution. Purchase order fulfillment requires validating order details, fulfilling purchase order specifications exactly, and generating the documentation retailers and distributors require.
Ottawa Logistics manages the full cycle of fulfilling purchase orders: from PO receipt through inventory allocation, picking, packing, labeling, and coordinated delivery. We understand that accuracy in purchase order fulfillment directly impacts your retailer relationships and helps you avoid costly chargebacks.
Our capabilities support high-volume sellers managing complex B2B order flows alongside their D2C channels.

B2B Fulfillment FAQs
FAQs
B2B order fulfillment is the process of receiving, processing, and shipping orders between businesses rather than directly to consumers. This typically involves larger order volumes, case or pallet quantities, purchase order documentation, and delivery to retail stores, distribution centers, or other business locations. B2B fulfillment requires specialized workflows for compliance, routing, and documentation that differ from D2C fulfillment.
Wholesale fulfillment involves shipping bulk orders to retailers, distributors, or resellers. The process begins with receiving a purchase order, allocating inventory, picking items at the case or pallet level, preparing shipments with proper labeling and documentation, and coordinating freight or LTL carriers for delivery. Wholesale fulfillment partners like Ottawa Logistics manage this entire workflow while ensuring compliance with retailer requirements.
Purchase order fulfillment is the process of receiving and processing orders based on formal purchase orders from business customers. This includes validating PO details, allocating inventory, preparing shipments according to specified requirements, generating required documentation (such as packing slips, bills of lading, and ASNs), and coordinating delivery to the specified location.
