In the world of online commerce, there are two terms that may seem similar: “fulfillment” and “prep center”. However, they have their own peculiarities and differences. Fulfillment is the process of processing orders from receipt to delivery to the buyer, including receiving goods in the warehouse, storage, order processing, packaging, shipping, recycling, accepting returns, etc. In other words, we are talking about a full cycle of services that is outsourced to a fulfillment center and allows sellers to focus on the development and marketing of their products. A fulfillment center is usually referred to as a cycle of services related to the preparation of goods for sale and shipment. This includes labeling, checking for completeness and quality, repacking, picking, etc. A prep center is usually part of a larger fulfillment process.

The key differences are:
1. Scope of services
In a fulfillment center, it is much broader, and the prep center is focused on certain stages of fulfillment work.
2. Stages of services
Fulfillment includes all stages: storage, processing, packaging, delivery, and return processing. The prep center works on preparing goods for storage or shipment.
3. Objective.
Fulfillment is focused on providing comprehensive logistics of goods from the warehouse to the buyer, and the prep center is focused on ensuring that the goods are ready for sale in accordance with the requirements of our client or a specific marketplace.
