RentDirect's fulfillment partner for Electrolux Home Appliances cites their category specialization and recent facility growth (now at 245,000 sq. ft.) as an advantage
There are distributors and then there are fulfillment partners. What's the difference? While both fill similar roles in storing, selling and then getting merchandise to rental stores, a fulfillment partner tends to be more focused in its approach. Just ask E.H.P. Direct South President Gilly Bailey.
"E.H.P. Direct South is more specialized, more of a partner with our accounts. We go above and beyond to work with our rental partners to get them product when it's convenient for them, not when it's convenient for us. We are a third-generation family business that continues to exceed customer expectations in both delivery time and customer service. And now, thanks to EHPDirectSouth.com, our fully-functional B2B system, customers can place orders and view product information on a real-time basis 24 hours a day, 7 days a week."
That product includes brand-name home appliances from Frigidaire and Frigidaire Gallery. E.H.P. Direct South also has a focused territory – Arkansas, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. That means next-day delivery occurs in 90% of their territory. Orders received by 2:00pm will deliver the next day in most cases.
E.H.P. Direct South also uses 90% independent partner carriers. Whenever possible, their partner trucks will deliver your merchandise and even assist in unloading if requested by the customer. This delivery approach also cuts down on the amount of damaged merchandise that shows up, which can be an issue with out-sourced LTL companies.
As Frigidaire expands its appliance offerings, E.H.P. Direct South is making sure rental dealers have access to the latest products. Bailey says that both the stainless steel appliance lineup and front load laundry are two strong categories that continue to grow.
"There is huge potential in the RTO business. We make sure we work to get product to the showroom floor next-day because we know it's important to ship quickly in the rental business. If your order comes in Thursday at 1:00, we're going to do everything we can to get that product to you by the weekend."
"We are here to service customers interested in Frigidaire appliances. Our entire inventory for rental stores is made up of appliances. All of our product knowledge is centered on the features and benefits of Frigidaire appliances. We are, quite simply, an extension of Frigidaire."
