Ultrafast shipping at lower cost
Cahoot empowers successful ecommerce merchants with extra warehouse capacity to become fulfillment partners and ship orders for other merchants. Merchants know how tough ecommerce can be, and they take extra pride in providing a top-notch service.
Combine certified merchant-operated warehouse fulfillment centers with Cahoot’s innovative shipping software and control center, and you get an order fulfillment service that powers better order fulfillment at 30% lower cost on average. Traditional third party logistics companies (3PLs) can’t compete.
“Keeping gourmet grocery items safe in the warehouse and then shipping them out without damage isn’t easy. We’ve perfected how to do it for our own business, and now we use that expertise to provide expert grocery fulfillment to Cahoot merchants.”
Over 100 world-class shipping
facilities
Cahoot leverages the best warehouse facilities from merchants across the country. Each is equipped with dedicated bins for each SKU and is equipped with barcode scan-verification. With more than 100 facilities and counting, Cahoot can empower you to offer 1-day and 2-day shipping nationwide.
44-point inspection for all
ecommerce merchants
Few warehouses have the facility and operational rigor to be a Cahoot Order Fulfillment Partner.
Our fulfillment centers undergo an extensive vetting process and due diligence. Merchants must pass a 44-point inspection from Cahoot including multiple checks before and during their partnership.
“We’ve invested a ton in our operations to enable fast and accurate eCommerce fulfillment for our own customers. When we found out about Cahoot, we realized that with them we could monetize our extra capacity and help other merchants with great fulfillment.”
Leverage untapped warehouse
capacity
Other order fulfillment services compete for the same third party logistics companies (3PLs) who are also squeezed by high industrial rent and labor costs. Cahoot offers lower-cost shipping fulfillment by tapping into unused space at merchant warehouses across the country.
Amazon SFP – The industry’s highest order
fulfillment standards
Cahoot technology empowers our ecommerce fulfillment partners to offer same-day fulfillment until 2pm, weekend shipping, and nationwide 1-day and 2-day coverage. Now you can participate in Amazon’s Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) program.
“I reached out to twenty other third party logistics companies (3PLs) and order fulfillment centers. Cahoot was the best option for business relations, services, and pricing by far.”
Strategic shipping warehouse selection
Unlike a traditional 3PL model, key fulfillment decisions like shipping service and box selection are done centrally by Cahoot and not made on-the-fly by the person packing at the physical warehouse.
Cahoot software compares and selects in real-time which location is best to ship your orders. Your product is shipped to your customer at the lowest cost and arrives on-time as promised.
Three layers of checks and balances
Technology, smart processes and the right people create ultrafast order fulfillment.
Strategic nationwide warehouses, a simplified shipping process, and advanced technology that allows greater real-time transparency all combine to create a robust order fulfillment process.
“The technology is easy to use, and I feel confident in the quality control methods implemented to make sure orders are accurately fulfilled. By requiring operators to scan and verify each item as they’re packed, the error rate is essentially zero.”
Specialized order fulfillment
for your product shipping
requirements
Cahoot is a network of certified merchants from across the country. Each bring their own expertise in handling a wide range of product types – large size, FDA certification, organic, hazmat, and more. You can also join our network with your own specialized warehouses if you choose.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can merchants fulfill orders as well as 3PLs?
They actually do better than third party logistics companies. Our merchant network supports Seller Fulfilled Prime, which has the highest bar for success in the industry.
Do I have to fulfill orders to use Cahoot?
Nope! We’re happy for merchants to join our network just for ecommerce fulfillment services. If you have extra warehouse fulfillment capacity and excellent metrics, consider applying to become a Cahoot Order Fulfillment Partner.
Won’t other merchants steal my customer?
We go further than other 3PLs to protect merchant privacy and data. For instance, when a Cahoot Fulfillment Partner receives instructions to fulfill your order, they don’t see the customer’s full name on the shipping label – just their first name and last initial.
How does peer-to-peer order fulfillment work?
Cahoot is similar to working with Fulfilled By Amazon (FBA). You sign up, get onboarded, ship your inventory to our warehouses, and you’re ready to sell.
Will fulfillment partners prioritize their orders over mine?
Cahoot software makes it easy for merchants to exceed the daily shipping capabilities of traditional 3PLs. Nearly everything is automated by the system, including which items to pick for the day, what box to use, and what shipping service to use.
Cahoot acts as a “control tower” that watches over all orders and springs into action whenever anything goes amiss.
