Why EU fulfilment stalls for non-EU brands

Finding a warehouse is the easy part. Getting stock imported, registered and selling legally across several markets is where launches lose months.

How EuroSOR EU fulfilment works

  1. 1

    Scope

    SKUs, target markets, channels and volumes. Product compliance review runs in parallel.

  2. 2

    Match

    We place you with the right partner node for your markets and product profile, on existing terms.

  3. 3

    Connect

    Your store and marketplaces link to the partner's systems. First inbound is booked.

  4. 4

    Import and go live

    EuroSOR clears the goods as importer. Stock is received and orders start shipping.

Why partner-led fulfilment

You get established warehouse capacity without negotiating it yourself, and one accountable party for the whole chain.

Better value

Network rates, not launch rates

Storage, pick and pack and carrier pricing negotiated across the network, not quoted to you as a new account.

Faster to market

No 3PL search

Contracts and onboarding are done. Lead time goes into product review and first inbound.

Tech from day one

Integrations already live

Storefronts, marketplaces and carriers already connected. Orders flow from launch day.

Our network or your own 3PL

Already have an EU warehouse? Keep it. The compliance layer is the same either way.

EU fulfilment FAQs

How is EU fulfilment delivered?

Through EuroSOR's network of vetted fulfilment partners in core EU markets. You get established warehouse capacity on pre-negotiated terms, with EuroSOR as your single contract, compliance owner and point of escalation.

Which EU markets do you cover?

Partner capacity sits in the core markets of the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Poland, with delivery to all 27 EU member states from those nodes.

How quickly can we go live?

Partner contracts and channel integrations are already in place, so most of the lead time is product compliance review and the first inbound shipment, not sourcing and onboarding a 3PL. Timelines are confirmed after SKU review.

Do we need an EU company or EU VAT registration?

No. EuroSOR acts as Importer of Record and Seller of Record, so imports, VAT and packaging EPR run through EuroSOR rather than a new EU entity.

Can we keep our existing EU 3PL?

Yes. Under the bring your own 3PL model, your warehouse keeps storage and dispatch while EuroSOR acts as Importer of Record and Seller of Record and runs VAT, EPR and Responsible Person obligations.

What does our 3PL need to support?

It must be based in the EU, accept EuroSOR as importer on inbound shipments, and share stock and dispatch data so VAT and EPR reporting stay accurate. We confirm this with your 3PL during onboarding.

How is EU fulfilment priced?

Fulfilment is quoted from the network's pre-negotiated rate cards for your SKU profile and target markets, alongside the EuroSOR service fee. You see the full landed cost before committing. For a first estimate, try the EU landed cost calculator.
