FOOD AND BEVERAGE

Food and Beverage fulfilment
for shelf-stable products

Food and beverage fulfilment depends on accurate inventory control and effective stock rotation, particularly for products managed
by batch or expiry date. Coghlan’s warehouse management system supports batch, lot and serial number management, helping
maintain accurate inventory records and product traceability throughout the fulfilment process.

Batch and expiry management for shelf-stable products

Accurate stock rotation is particularly important for food and beverage products managed by batch or expiry date. Coghlan’s warehouse management system supports batch, lot and serial number management, providing greater visibility and control over inventory throughout the fulfilment process. 

Clean, ambient warehousing for shelf-stable products

Fashion order volumes can fluctuate significantly around major sale periods, product launches and seasonal changes. Coghlan plans additional warehouse resourcing around known peaks, helping maintain fulfilment capacity when order volumes increase.

Whether it’s Black Friday, a major promotional campaign or the launch of a new collection, our fulfilment operation can scale to accommodate higher volumes without compromising the accuracy and consistency of day-to-day order processing.

Subscription and repeat-order support

Subscription and repeat orders require consistent, accurate fulfilment, particularly when customers expect their orders to arrive on a regular schedule. Coghlan can manage recurring subscription orders alongside one-off purchases through the same warehouse and inventory management system, helping brands maintain a consistent fulfilment process across different order types.

Talk to Coghlan about food and beverage fulfilment:

Does Coghlan use FEFO stock rotation for food products?
Yes. Coghlan’s warehouse management system picks on a first-expired, first-out basis using batch and expiry data, rather than relying on manual stock rotation. 
What temperature ranges can Coghlan hold?
TBC
Does Coghlan support subscription box fulfilment for food and beverage brands?
Yes. Recurring subscription orders are handled through the same warehouse management system as one-off purchases.
How does Coghlan reduce the risk of shipping near-expiry stock?
Batch and expiry data is tracked in the warehouse management system and drives first-expired, first-out picking, which reduces reliance on manual checks. 
Does Coghlan handle food safety compliance requirements?
Coghlan’s processes support batch traceability and stock rotation. Specific food safety compliance, including Food Standards Australia New Zealand requirements, sits with the brand and should be confirmed against current regulations.
