Three flexible programs — Consignment, Vendor-Managed Inventory and Branded JIT — built so high-volume 3PLs can hold Synergy stock without tying up working capital or risking a stockout.
First 30 days free · 50,000-bag starter at our cost · No per-client paperwork
3PL ops managers get fired for stockouts, not for being a few cents over on COGS. Holding Synergy stock at your dock means the mailer is always one rack away — no inbound transit, no broker delays, no Friday-afternoon scramble when a client doubles their shipping volume on Monday.
And because title only transfers when you pull the SKU (Consignment) or you replenish on draw-down (VMI), your CFO sees the working-capital impact go to zero. The mailers don't sit on your balance sheet — they sit on ours.
The right structure depends on volume stability, who you want holding inventory risk, and whether the end-client wants their own branded mailer. We'll size the right program on the discovery call.
Synergy retains title until you pull the SKU. You hold the inventory; we invoice monthly on actual consumption.
Best for
Variable or growing-volume operations that want zero downside if a SKU stalls.
Pick this if you want zero working capital tied up and zero balance-sheet impact.
You own the inventory the moment the truck unloads; Synergy auto-replenishes against thresholds. No POs to chase.
Best for
Stable, predictable operations that want ops simplicity and a lower per-bag price.
Pick this if you want simpler accounting and a lower per-bag price, and you're comfortable holding the inventory.
Custom mailers in your brand or your client's brand, short lead times, no MOQ trap on the 3PL side.
Best for
3PLs offering white-glove or premium-tier service to ecommerce clients who want branded packaging.
Pick this if your clients want branded mailers without having to commit to a year of inventory.
Auto-replenishment runs the same way in both programs — Synergy monitors thresholds and ships to maintain forward coverage. The thing that changes is when title transfers, which flips who carries risk, who pays working capital, and when we invoice.
| Dimension | Consignment | VMI |
|---|---|---|
| Who owns the mailers on your shelf? | Synergy | You |
| When do you pay? | Monthly, on actuals consumed | Per replenishment shipment |
| Working capital tied up? | $0 | Standard inventory carry |
| Who eats it if a SKU stops moving? | Synergy | You |
| On your balance sheet? | No | Yes |
| Per-bag price | Premium (we carry risk) | Lower (you absorb risk) |
| Auto-replenishment + threshold mgmt | Yes — Synergy runs it | Yes — Synergy runs it |
One-line rule: Consignment means we own the stock on your floor and you pay when you use it. VMI means you own it the moment it lands and we just run the reorder math for you. Same delivery cadence, different balance-sheet treatment.
Sub-24-hour replenishment to CA, AZ, TX. Most US 3PLs on the West Coast or Southwest are within a single truck day of our plant — same day if it's urgent.
Account managers, planning team and inventory analysts all run EN/ES. Cross-border 3PL ops in TJ/Otay or fulfillment partners on Mercado Libre work with us in the language they prefer.
We extrude our own film, so custom gauges, colors and additive packages don't go through a converter. That means real cost on custom — not a converter markup.
USMCA Certificate of Origin, CFDI 4.0 invoicing, Carta Porte 3.0 transport documents — the cross-border paperwork layer is solved on our side. Your broker gets a clean packet.
Zero consumption billing from the moment your starter stock arrives. You only pay starting Day 31, on actual bags consumed in Month 2 forward.
Shipped within 10 business days of countersign, split across our top 6 SKUs. If the pilot ends in the free window, we pay return freight or you keep it — your call.
Tier 2 unlocks at 100k bags/mo (−8%). Tier 3 at 500k (−15% + dedicated planner). Tier is computed on rolling 30-day actual consumption — no renegotiation needed.
Replenishment SLA: ≥30 days of forward consumption on hand for every enrolled SKU. Miss it twice in any 90-day rolling window and your next month's invoice is automatically credited 10%.
The whole program runs through Synergy OS — no PDF chase, no DocuSign account required, no per-client paperwork once you're live. Eight stages from application to operational:
Company, DC, WMS, estimated monthly volume. Five minutes online.
Your Synergy rep reaches out within two business days to talk volume + answer questions.
Standard credit + operational + reference checks. Light-touch — designed for 3PLs, not enterprise procurement.
Click-through agreement lands in your inbox. 14 plain-English clauses, no surprise terms.
Type your name, check the authorization box, Accept. Snapshotted with timestamp + IP for the audit trail.
50,000-bag starter pallet leaves Tijuana within 10 business days. The 30-day free window starts the day it arrives.
We issue your webhook credentials + a 10-line WMS shim. ~4 hours of dev work on your side, end to end.
Real-time inventory in your partner portal. Monthly statements auto-generated with per-client breakdown.
Each step has its own status URL — you can check where your application is at any time, no login required. When you go live, the partner dashboard shows on-hand inventory, days-of-coverage at current burn rate, next inbound replenishment ETA, and a running by-client consumption split.
Tell us your monthly fulfillment volume, your SKU mix, and where you're feeling the pinch on mailer supply. We'll come back with a program shape and pilot terms.
