In the fast-paced world of e-commerce, managing logistics and fulfillment is a critical aspect of ensuring customer satisfaction and sustaining business growth. Facing challenges stemming from rapid growth, Wondery Outdoors, a prominent outdoor women’s clothing brand, partnered with Relentless Fulfillment, a leading third-party logistics (3PL) provider to deliver outsourced fulfillment services serving their B2B retail partnerships and direct-to-consumer order fulfillment.

Wondery, whose mission is to empower women and minorities to embrace the outdoors, faced a turning point in its business when its Parks of the USA Water Bottle became a viral hit, making it their best-selling product and challenging its operational capabilities. The surge in demand presented the in-house team with logistical challenges that they couldn’t efficiently handle while also managing day-to-day operations for their business and continuously working to expand their sales and brand awareness.
After Initially working with a large, nationally known 3PL before transitioning to Relentless Fulfillment, Nina Bhatia, Director of Operations at Wondery Brand, cited a lack of communication as one of the biggest challenges their team was facing. With no dedicated point of contact and a revolving door of customer support members, Bhatia’s team struggled to resolve issues that ultimately impacted inventory management and customer satisfaction.
She needed a partner who could offer personalized support with a main point of contact and dedicated support team and who could help optimize the inventory management and fulfillment processes.
After exploring multiple 3PL options, Wondery chose Relentless Fulfillment for their DTC ecommerce fulfillment partner, based on recommendations and the promise of a more personalized and efficient client experience. Bhatia emphasized the importance of having a dedicated contact person from the Relentless team, in this case, Sabrina, who plays a crucial role in day-to-day operations.
Sabrina and her colleagues at Relentless are readily available to answer questions, work with the Wondery team on special projects, and identify optimizations and opportunities for improvement. For instance, Bhatia recalled recently that the team offered expert feedback to the Wondery team on ways their personalized packaging could be updated to be more cost-efficient while simultaneously improving branding and the customer experience.
Bhatia recalled that transitioning from the previous 3PL to Relentless was smooth and the onboarding process was easy to understand and quick. She praised the quick contract turnaround and efficient handling of the logistics involved in moving their inventory.
Since partnering with Relentless, Wondery’s business has grown substantially. She credits Relentless with being a part of that growth, through their improved order fulfillment, quick putaway turnaround times, accurate inventory control, and prompt, accommodating customer service practices.
The partnership has positively influenced Wondery’s customer satisfaction, as issues related to shipping delays and order accuracy have been reduced. Now, they are always up-to-date with orders, and with improved insights into inventory, can quickly get orders out the door — most orders are turned around the same day.
Since partnering with Relentless, Wondery’s B2B and DTC orders have grown dramatically. IN less than a year, they’ve seen:
This support and growth has allowed Wondery to close their internal warehouse and focus more on sales and marketing. Knowing she has a true partner in Relentless Fulfillment allows Nina to focus on production and minimize the amount of time she needs to spend on finding answers or putting out fires.
Bhatia confidently recommends Relentless Fulfillment to other companies experiencing growth and looking for a 3PL partner that prioritizes communication, responsiveness, and personalized support.
