Alright, buckle up because we're about to dive into a story that's as comfy as a brand-new mattress and as fast-paced as a delivery truck on a mission! We're talking about Fynd and The Sleep Company, a partnership shaking up the bulky items delivery game.

‍

The wake-up call for The Sleep Company!!!

‍

This is the story of Sleep Company—a brand synonymous with the most luxurious comfort-tech mattresses, sofas, and all things cozy, a pioneer in next-gen mattresses and ergonomic furniture. But when it came to speedy deliveries of these big, bulky items, The Sleep Company had sleepless nights!

‍

For years, The Sleep Company relied on third-party (3P) logistics partners to deliver its online and offline orders to customers. The average delivery time within Mumbai—where their factory is located—was a frustrating 4-5 days. Real-time visibility was missing, support lines were buzzing, and customers calling for updates were met with uncertainty. The brand completely depended on the 3P courier partners for updates, leading to multiple calls and delays.

‍

Due to the lack of control over fleet management, the damage rate was also troublesome. Bulky furniture and mattresses didn’t always arrive in perfect condition, leading to dissatisfied customers and increasing escalations. The inefficiencies, rising costs, and lack of control were keeping the brand from providing the seamless experience they envisioned.

‍

“Speedy deliveries for our heavy, bulky category was a major issue. Even local Mumbai orders took 4-5 days, and we had no control over damages. We couldn't give customers accurate updates, leading us to build our own delivery system.”

The Problem: Bulky, bumpy, and broken promises

‍

• Slow deliveries

The Solution: Taking the driver’s seat with Fynd TMS

‍

By November 2024, The Sleep Company made the bold move to launch ts own delivery fleet, starting with a pilot run in Mumbai. But a fleet alone wasn’t enough—they needed a system that could handle route optimization, fleet management, and real-time tracking without adding operational complexity.

‍

Enter Fynd TMS, a powerful, flexible transportation management solution that integrated seamlessly with their business.

‍

Why Fynd?

‍

Because it had everything The Sleep Company was looking for!

‍

‍

The Sleep Company extensively evaluated multiple solutions but found Fynd TMS to be the perfect fit. Here’s why:

‍

• Lightning-fast implementation: Closed the deal in one day, and the system was up and running in weeks, not months. 

‍

• Cost-effective: Unlike heavy enterprise solutions, Fynd TMS delivered all the must-have features without burning a hole in their pocket.

‍

• Unparalleled support: The Sleep Company faced the usual teething problems, but Fynd’s team was hands-on, solving issues in record time.

‍

“Of course, it wasn't all sunshine and roses. There were onboarding challenges, especially with integrating various systems and mapping complex product categories. But Fynd's team was on it, providing constant support and quick solutions.”

Fynd TMS features that closed the deal

‍

• Routing engine: By dynamically optimizing routes and factoring in real-time traffic, it significantly reduced delivery times and boosted operational efficiency, leading to substantial logistics cost reductions.

‍

• Scheduled deliveries: Fynd's built-in scheduling and slotting eliminated customer uncertainty and frustration. It allowed for choosing precise delivery time slots, giving customers control and eliminated the need for costly, custom solutions for The Sleep Company.

‍

• User-friendly interface: To ensure a smooth transition to self-delivery, The Sleep Company needed a system anyone could use, especially drivers who might not be highly tech-savvy. Fynd's intuitive interface made it easy for their entire team, including drivers, to manage deliveries regardless of technical expertise, streamlining operations from day one.
