Facing Industry Challenges? We Have Solutions.

A Platform Tailored To The Supermarket Category

Maintaining Product Freshness

Maintaining Product Freshness

Grocery products have a short shelf life, and every delivery delay means the risk of losses. Base.com helps you manage product rotation with a WMS that tracks expiry dates, automatically marks products for markdowns, and sends alerts to the warehouse with suggestions for the best rotation strategy. Thanks to tags and order priorities, the system knows which parcels need to be dispatched first—such as those requiring same-day delivery.

Challenging Food Returns

Challenging Food Returns

Food products lose freshness quickly, making returns and resales difficult. Base.com helps you manage this process efficiently. Customers can automatically receive clear instructions via email or SMS, and packers get personalised messages—for example, reminders to include an information leaflet explaining the returns process. The system also differentiates between products that can be returned and those that should be immediately removed from sale.

Delayed Shipping

Delayed Shipping

Customers often buy in advance but want delivery “on Thursday between 6 and 8 pm.” For many sales systems in grocery and drinks retail, that’s a challenge—but for Base.com, it’s standard. With flexible automation, the system delays shipments to the requested date and time. Orders are appropriately flagged, added to the task list at the right moment, and dispatched on time—matching the buyer’s preference.

Zone-Based Warehouse Management

Zone-Based Warehouse Management

Supermarket logistics often mean managing three warehouses in one—each with different temperatures and working hours. The advanced WMS in Base.com automatically distributes picking tasks across zones: freezer, chiller, and dry storage. It ensures that temperature-sensitive products spend as little time as possible outside controlled environments, adding instructions like “Pack with dry ice.” It also supports the entire logistics process with integrations to various delivery methods. Orders with express delivery or specified time slots can be tagged with special labels. Implementing this model requires a tailored approach and solutions that fit your specific warehouse structure—our team of experts is here to help.
