Your Guide to Micro-Fulfilment Centres & Why Diamond Leads the Way

Fast, localised delivery is no longer optional—it’s a necessity. Micro-fulfilment centres (MFCs) give your business the flexibility to scale quickly while keeping costs down. This guide shows you how.

Common Fulfilment Challenges

  • Increasing last-mile delivery costs
  • Maintaining stock accuracy
  • Meeting customer demand for faster delivery
  • Managing scalability regionally

How Diamond Supports Micro-Fulfilment

Diamond’s micro-fulfilment strategy:

  • Uses nationwide local hubs
  • Reduces last-mile costs & delivery times
  • Offers scalable fulfilment tailored to your growth
  • Integrates smoothly with your sales platforms

Why Micro-Fulfilment Makes a Difference

Micro-fulfilment allows you to stay close to customers, reduce costs, and speed up delivery—all while improving operational efficiency. It’s a key strategy for brands looking to scale without the overhead of large distribution centres.

Diamond’s nationwide network means you benefit from local hubs that keep your logistics lean, flexible, and cost-effective. Whether you’re starting small or expanding rapidly, micro-fulfilment gives you the edge.
