Challenge

Reducing fulfillment time without increasing costs

Bevstack already enabled multiple alcohol brands to sell directly to their customers online, but they were having challenges with consistent, timely fulfillment. Growing alcohol brands need the ability to sell their alcohol DTC, but some have been burned by slow fulfillment times or unresponsive partners. Bevstack needed to find a partner who could help them expand into new markets and deliver faster fulfillment times without sacrificing compliance or customer service.

  • Bevstack had a network of partners that handled fulfillment, but it was a headache. 
  • Delivery times varied by market, and prevented creating a consistent customer experience. 
  • Bevstack’s ability to onboard new alcohol brands was impacted. They knew they needed to figure out a solution to the fulfillment bottleneck. 
  • Finding Coasters to be their lead partner changed the trajectory of Bevstack’s business.

Coasters has a best-in-class platform and their team makes onboarding fast and painless. You can tell they have years of experience and have built their technology with execution and scalability in mind

The biggest advantage of working with Coasters is driving an amazing customer experience for our clients without shouldering the load of fulfillment. Their team has completely delivered, giving us happy clients and unlimited ability to drive new business.

Coasters’ relationship with UPS has benefitted us tremendously – as we never have to worry about shipping issues or delays. Packages arrive on time and from a carrier our customers trust – especially for a high-value item like alcohol

Fulfillment

Coasters is the first compliant alcohol 3PL in the US and holds premier partner status with UPS. Bevstack never has to worry about slow fulfillment times or compromising customer experience.

When alcohol brands hear that we can allow them to sell and ship alcohol online with fulfillment times of three days or less, they don’t believe it.

Coasters has handled customer service exceptionally well. Rarely are there any issues with products or delivery, and if there are, Coasters is able to handle all requests without getting Bevstack involved. We have never once had a compliance issue since working with Coasters
