KING OF PRUSSIA, Pa.--()--GSI Commerce, a leading provider of ecommerce and interactive solutions, today announced that it has been selected by Hanover Direct to handle fulfillment, freight and warehouse management for The Company Store® and Company Kids brands under a multiyear contract. GSI will support Hanover from a leased fulfillment facility in Martinsville, Va. that is closely located to GSI’s existing fulfillment operation in Martinsville.
“We are looking forward to helping them grow their direct business across both their ecommerce and catalog channels.”
“GSI has a proven record in efficiently executing fulfillment, freight and warehouse management,” said Don Kelley, CEO of Hanover Direct. “We are confident that this relationship will enable us to grow our business and focus more on core Hanover strengths, including marketing, branding, merchandising and customer service, and less on backend fulfillment operations. We look forward to good things to come with GSI.”
GSI Commerce’s state-of-the-art fulfillment services will better facilitate the distribution of Hanover Direct’s brands and improve its clients’ customer experience. This new relationship will also ensure many jobs dedicated to Hanover Direct fulfillment services will remain within the state of Virginia.
