What a Jewelry 3PL Handles

A jewelry 3PL receives a brand's finished pieces, stores them under access control, picks each one by barcode scan, packs it in the brand's own box or pouch with its cards and certificates, ships it, and inspects what comes back. Jewelry fulfillment adds two jobs most products skip: shrink control and presentation.

A ring fits in a pocket, and a style sold in several sizes and metals gives you pieces that look alike in a poly bag. Gift buyers judge the box as well, so your packaging has to arrive the way you designed it.

So a jewelry program needs more than the standard order fulfillment flow. It needs to show who can reach the stock, how every piece gets counted, and how each order leaves the building looking like your brand.

Who Can Touch Your Inventory

Every 3PL calls its warehouse secure. Here's what that means in our building, control by control.

  • Screened and Credit-Checked Staff

    Every employee is background-screened and credit-checked before working the floor. The credit check is there to cut fraud risk on stock that's easy to resell.

  • Electronic Entry

    Electronic entry access limits who gets into the building and when.

  • CCTV Kept 90 Days

    Cameras record the floor and footage is kept for 90 days. If a customer says a box arrived short, the footage from that pick and pack date is still there when you ask.

  • A Floor-to-Ceiling Cage

    High-value pieces go in our floor-to-ceiling security cage instead of open shelving.

  • Fire Protection

    The building was purpose-built in 2021 with ESFR sprinklers throughout.

  • We Pay for What We Lose

    If we lose or damage a unit in our building, we pay its cost. That puts the risk of shrink on us, where the controls are.

Every Piece Accounted For, From Receipt to Pack Bench

Shrink hides in the gaps between the dock and the box. We close each gap with a count or a scan, so a missing piece shows up on our records before it shows up in a customer complaint.

  1. Receiving

    Inbound pieces are counted and scanned against your advance ship notice before any of them can be sold. A short or mislabeled shipment is flagged to you before it can turn into an oversell.

  2. Storage

    Each SKU gets its own bin location. Stock by SKU shows in your client portal in real time.

  3. Picking

    Every pick gets an RF barcode scan against the order line before it goes into the tote. Our 135+ Locus robots carry the totes, so associates spend their time picking and verifying.

  4. Cycle counts

    Our scheduled cycle counts are included at no charge. A gap turns up on a count weeks before it would turn up at your year-end inventory.

  5. Serial capture

    When a watch or fine piece carries a serial number, we capture it, so you can see which serial went to which customer. More on serial number tracking.

Ring Sizes, Metals and Chain Lengths Without Swaps

How every jewelry pick is verified

  1. One Variant, One Barcode

    Every size, metal and finish is its own SKU with its own barcode, UPC or your own. Necklaces split by length (16, 18 and 20 inch), earrings by finish and back type.

  2. Location and Item Both Scan

    The bin barcode and the item barcode both have to match the order line before a pick counts. A size 7 from the next slot doesn't register.

  3. Sets Built as Their Own SKUs

    Stacking ring sets and earring-and-necklace pairs are built ahead and given their own SKU, so a set ships as one scan instead of three.

Boxes, Pouches, Cards and Certificates: Packing Jewelry to Spec

Your packing spec is set per SKU at onboarding and shown to the packer at the bench, so the hundredth order looks like the first.

  • Your Packaging, Every Time

    Box or pouch, anti-tarnish strip, polishing cloth, care card, ribbon or sticker. We pack to your components, instructions and packaging.

  • Certificates With the Right Piece

    For serialized pieces, the serial is scanned at pack-out and the certificate or appraisal card carrying that serial goes in the same box.

  • Gift Notes From Your Store

    Gift notes are part of your pack spec. The gift message field from your store gets mapped before go-live, so each note matches its order.

  • Packaging Counted Like Product

    Boxes, pouches and cards are received and stored as components with their own counts, so you see a packaging shortfall in October instead of in the middle of December orders.

  • Gift Sets Built Ahead

    Holiday bundles are built on our 50,000 sq ft kitting floor and checked against a bill of materials before they close. See how gift sets and holiday bundles go from loose components to finished SKUs.

Getting a High-Value Parcel to the Door

Buyers ask who pays when a necklace goes missing. The answer depends on where the piece was, so here's the split, stage by stage.

Where the piece isWho covers a lossWhat we set up
In our building

We do. If we lose or damage a unit, we pay its cost.

Screened staff, the cage, CCTV, a scan on every pick and scheduled cycle counts.

With the carrier

The carrier's declared value coverage, or your own shipping insurance

A declared value set per order. Labels rate-shopped across carriers on the measured carton, or a carrier's guaranteed service when you choose one.

At the customer's door

Your shipping insurance or your store's policy

Signature required per order, for example on every order above a value you pick.

For the difference between warehouse liability and shipping insurance, read what a 3PL's coverage pays for. International orders ship to 220+ countries, with duties prepaid when you want the customer to pay nothing at the door.

Inspecting Returned Jewelry Before It Goes Back on Sale

Returns are where worn, damaged or swapped pieces come back into your stock. Each one gets checked before the next customer can buy it.

  1. Right piece

    The item is scanned against the original order. Serialized pieces must match the serial that shipped, which catches a swapped return.

  2. Condition

    Stones present, clasps and posts intact, no wear, tarnish or scratches, and the box and certificate back with it.

  3. Your rules

    Pierced earrings follow your hygiene rule at the bench, whether that's quarantine or disposal.

  4. Graded and reported

    Each return is graded to restock, quarantine or disposal. Sellable pieces go back to available stock, damaged ones are documented, and you get a report of every return and its condition.

Watches, Bags, Belts, Sunglasses and Hair Accessories

Accessories share a customer with jewelry but not a carton size. We hold them in the same inventory and pack each type the way it travels best.

  • Watches

    Watches with a small cell installed ship by ground as non-hazmat, set up SKU by SKU at onboarding. We don't take loose spare batteries or power banks.

  • Handbags and Wallets

    Stuffed and bagged to your spec. Every packed carton crosses a certified scale and dimensioner before its label prints, so the billable weight is known at pack-out instead of on a carrier adjustment weeks later.

  • Sunglasses and Frames

    Packed in their case and boxed to your spec, so lenses and hinges arrive the way they left.

  • Belts, Scarves and Hair Accessories

    Light and often added to a jewelry order. A necklace and a bag on the same order are picked to one tote and packed as one shipment.

Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and December for Jewelry Brands

Jewelry has three gifting peaks a year, and each one ends on a date the customer can't move. We prep each peak with you before its orders start.

PeakWhen orders buildPrep we do with you
Valentine's Day

Late January to the second week of February

Packaging counted against your forecast in January, and Valentine's gift sets built ahead.

Mother's Day

Mid-April to early May

Gift sets and card inserts staged, and last-order dates on your site set to the carrier calendar.

December holidays

Black Friday through the last carrier cutoff

Holiday bundles built in October, packaging restocked, and your last-order dates set from this year's carrier holiday cutoffs.

Orders in by 2 PM CST ship the same day, through every peak. Your account manager responds to any issue within our 2-hour SLA. Store orders for the same holidays ship to each retailer's routing guide through our retail and wholesale fulfillment.

KSP is efficient and professional in every way: orders are filled correctly, efficiently, quickly, and with top service. They find the best and most cost effective way to ship. When we make mistakes—and we do—they catch them and come to us.
