Where our depth is
We fulfil for any brand. We are specialists in sports nutrition and food.
Batch codes, best-before dates and FEFO picking are not a module we switched on. They are how the warehouse was set up, because this is the category we buy and sell ourselves. Plenty of 3PLs will handle your stock. Fewer know what short-dated means to your margin.
Batch and expiry on every receipt
Batch code, best-before and quantity captured per pallet at goods in. Standard, not a chargeable extra.
FEFO picking as the default
First-expiry-first-out, with short-dated stock flagged in the portal before it becomes a write-off.
Recall is a report, not an investigation
Any batch traces back to the orders it shipped in, so a withdrawal takes minutes.
We are a wholesaler as well as a 3PL
MyProtein's biggest online reseller, supplying gyms, retailers and convenience across the UK. Your stock sits in a warehouse that already trades your category, and can reach those buyers without a second logistics hop.
Specialist versus generalist
What specialism actually changes
The differences only surface when a batch needs withdrawing or a retailer rejects short-dated stock.

Two workflows
B2B pallets and D2C parcels, run side by side
Neither workflow slows the other, because each runs in its own building on its own schedule.
Wholesale & B2B
Pallet picking, flexible pallet storage and stock-ageing dashboards. Booked-in deliveries dispatch via pallet service only.
Ecommerce & D2C
Shopify, WooCommerce, Warehouse System, Amazon, eBay and TikTok integrations, branded packaging, automated carrier logic and graded returns.
Onboarding
Live in 7 to 10 days
Four steps, one account manager
Integration & testing
We connect your channels and run test orders end to end.
SKU setup
Barcodes, dimensions, batch rules and pick faces configured.
Stock transfer & go-live
Your first inbound is free of charge and receipted against your stock file.
Portal access
Raise requests, attach documents and track progress in the ticketing portal.
Batch and expiry, as standard
Every unit arrives with a date on it. So do our records.
Goods in captures batch code, best-before and quantity per pallet. Picking is first-expiry-first-out by default, and short-dated stock is flagged in the portal before a retailer rejects it, not after.
- Batch code and best-before captured per pallet, not per delivery
- Short-dated stock flagged in the portal at a threshold you set
- Full batch-to-order trace for withdrawals and recalls
- Segregated, temperature-aware locations for food-grade stock
The Portal
Every order, every pallet, in real time
Sign in to check live stock by SKU, book inbound deliveries, follow every dispatch and pull the reports your finance team asks for. OccaStore also offers an integration API for 3PL customers.
Bridge Ops
The technology that connects your channels to the warehouse
Bridge Ops is OccaStore's integration layer. It moves orders, stock and status between your sales channels, retailer systems and our warehouses, so fulfilment runs on live data instead of spreadsheets and manual uploads. Channel licences on each plan cover Bridge Ops connections for those channels.
Marketplace and storefront connectors
Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, eBay and TikTok Shop, wired so orders land in the warehouse without re-keying.
Stock and order sync
Live stock levels and order status move between your channels, the Warehouse System and the OccaStore portal.
Dispatch status back to channels
Tracking and fulfilment updates push back to the sales channel so customers see the same truth you do.
EDI for retailer trading partners
Purchase orders, acknowledgements, ASNs and invoices where a retailer requires EDI, scoped and agreed per account.
API and custom integrations
Enterprise plans unlock API support and bespoke connectors when an off-the-shelf channel feed is not enough.
Portal visibility on top
Every connected flow is visible in the customer portal: open orders, stock by SKU, inbound and returns.
Included channel capacity follows your technology plan (1 on Standard, 3 on Growth, unlimited on Enterprise). Extra connectors and EDI trading partners are scoped per account.

FAQs
Common questions
Is there a minimum monthly spend?
Technology and account management starts from a monthly fee on Standard. Fulfilment is billed separately, pay as you go against the agreed rate card. Book a call for a tailored commercial.
How long does onboarding take?
Typically 7 to 10 days from agreement to live dispatch. Simpler catalogues are faster; complex ones we flag up front.
What is the order cut-off?
Orders received before 14:00 on a working day are dispatched the same day. Orders after the cut-off go the next working day.
Can we supply our own packaging?
Yes. Supply your own branded packaging and we apply the client-supplied packaging credit from the live rate card where agreed in commercials.
Who insures the goods?
You retain ownership of stock. OccaStore carries standard operational insurance for our activities. Carrier claims are raised on your behalf where applicable; evidence windows apply.
