More and more people are turning to health-enhancing products, such as supplements and meal replacements. In addition to meeting strict quality standards, these products require specialized storage, processing, and shipping conditions.
At Active Ants, we have extensive experience in handling health and nutrition products and hold all the necessary certifications and approvals to work with them. Additionally, as a Skal-certified fulfilment provider, we are authorized to store and process organic products, ensuring compliance with the highest industry standards.
Although quite a few players are already active, the online nutrition market still offers plenty of opportunities. However, there are quite a few conditions you have to meet before you are allowed to sell nutrition products. This ranges from extra strict rules for the product itself to marketing, packaging, shipping and batch registration.
If you ship abroad, you will also have to deal with the rules of that country. Furthermore, you sometimes need special documents and certificates. We are specialists in crossborder shipments and will be happy to inform you of any additional conditions. In addition, we have a wide range of shipping options, so we can always find a suitable carrier for you.
Many products in the nutrition category have an expiry date, making stock management and the logistics process extra challenging. Whereas with most items it matters little what order you sell them in, it is different with perishables. Besides having to deal with an expiry date, you also want to know which batch the products are from.
Suppose you face a product recall, where you have to recall products due to (possible) safety issues, you will want to know exactly which items are involved. With our advanced stock management system, you have all relevant information at your fingertips. Common inventory methods such as First In First Out (FIFO) and First Expired First Out (FEFO) are also no problem for us.
Sturdy packaging is always important within e-commerce, but especially so for nutrition products. Because of their fragility, protective packaging is crucial. Active Ants has several packing machines, allowing us to pack every order in the best possible way. This way, we save up to 40 percent air in our parcels, preventing items from sliding or getting damaged.
