About us
Ankorstore is on a mission to rewild retail !
With decades of experience in retail and building marketplaces, in 2019 the Ankorstore founding team knew it was time to create a global wholesale solution – one that swings the balance in favour of independents and restores retail to its natural order !
They’ve created a new ecosystem that harnesses the power of modern technology to create a mutually beneficial community that reinvents the way brands and retailers work together. As a result, wild independents can thrive.
The team
Logistics is at the heart of Ankorstore's unique value proposition. Logistics and its daily execution is critical and often not well mastered enough by both retailers and brands. Independent retailers do not enjoy convenience and good services linked to supply Chain/logistics (speed, reliability of deliveries, restocking, inventory management,...) whilst Brands report juggling various operational activities and fail at optimizing costs. This leaves space for a state of the art Logistics proposition carried by Ankorstore to solve this problem, bring services & economy of scales to this ecosystem, set new standards within the B2B industry whilst generating operational margin for Ankorstore.
From an operational standpoint, we aim at helping brands ship their orders seamlessly by partnering with the most relevant logistics partners. We help retailers with outstanding delivery experience, fast and reliable resolution experience when issue occurs and smart inventory management services.
This is a unique opportunity to have a meaningful impact on our customers and to get a 360 view of the e-commerce BtoB supply chain (transportation, fulfilment, cross-border shipping).
Our logistics services are made of two main products: (i) a direct shipping service powered by Ankorstore’s partner carriers, with label generation, pick-up and delivery on an order per order basis, and (ii) and integrated Fulfilment service for our best brands, where we handle inbound, storage, order preparation and outbound shipping flows from our Fulfilment Center.
