Challenges

Scaling without losing focus

As Connock grew, in-house fulfilment quickly became a bottleneck.

Managing stock, packing orders, and balancing both B2B and B2C demand internally was becoming increasingly complex and unsustainable.

This operational strain began to impact:

  • Time available for growth and business development

  • Efficiency during peak periods

  • Consistency in customer experience

Recognising that fulfilment was pulling focus away from strategic priorities, the team knew it was time to partner with a specialist.

We reached a point where fulfilment was taking focus away from business development and growth. It limited our ability to grow efficiently and risked inconsistencies in fulfilment during busy periods, which can impact customer experience.

The IFGlobal difference

A flexible, hands-on 3PL partnership

Connock began its search for a fulfilment partner with clear priorities:

  • Reliability and attention to detail

  • Scalability to support growth

  • Strong communication and accessibility

  • Ability to manage both B2B and B2C fulfilment

  • A single location for stock and component storage

IFGlobal stood out through:

  • Personal recommendations from existing clients

  • Proximity and competitive pricing

  • A collaborative, flexible approach

  • Direct access to a responsive team

What ultimately built confidence was IFGlobal's willingness to work with Connock as a growing brand rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model.

A major advantage of working with IFGlobal has been access to BladePRO, our proprietary fulfilment operating system which provides real-time visibility across orders, stock levels, returns, and fulfilment performance. 

This transparency allows Connock to stay in control without being involved in day-to-day logistics. The ease of accessing operational insights removes Connock's need to chase updates, enabling faster, more informed decisions. 

IFGlobal's key value drivers include:

  • Flexibility to handle evolving needs

  • Strong, responsive communication

  • End-to-end fulfilment (storage to shipping)

  • Dedicated account support

We were looking for a partner who could deliver reliability, attention to detail, and scalability, alongside strong communication and flexibility. It was important they could support both B2B and B2C, and came recommended by trusted peers.

What stood out about IFGlobal was their accessibility and hands-on support, as well as their willingness to work with us as a growing brand.

Onboarding

A seamless transition with a collaborative approach

Transitioning from in-house fulfilment to a 3PL can be complex but Connock found the onboarding process to IFGlobal smooth and highly collaborative.

  • Strong communication throughout implementation
  • Open dialogue to refine packing and processes
  • Hands-on collaboration to maintain brand standards

While there were initial concerns around preserving the premium packaging experience, these were addressed through continuous feedback and process improvements.

IFGlobal's SmartBase fulfilment centre provided reassurance with its:

  • Well-organised layout

  • Accessibility for visits

  • Full operational visibility
