Challenges Faced

Since Cuddles for Cubs laid its foundation in late 2020, the focus has been to create timeless designs and durable products so parents can save them for a younger cub. This way of generating less waste is based on the value of giving and sharing.

Given Cuddles for Cubs is in their zero-to-one journey, it was critical for the business to grow rapidly by reaching the maximum number of customers across India in the shortest time possible, for which they needed access to a scalable fulfillment solution that would provide them with:

  • Avoid locking of inventory to have access to an adequate amount of working capital, which can be invested into other important initiatives tied to growth
  • Create a positive post-purchase experience for their customers by shipping their orders in the shortest time possible
  • Expand its reach by diversifying their sales channel portfolio
No access to a scalable and wide network of fulfillment centers
Locking of inventory leading to lack of working capital
