It’s the little things that make a difference in your business.
Customers feel that a business cares about them by offering several solutions in one box. Kitting is simply bundling several products in one box. If your target audience is busy mothers, why not bundle a lotion of the month, a facial cleanser, and a moisturizer. Another option would be creating a box of relaxation that includes a candle, face mask, and bath bombs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Kitting is the physical act of combining multiple different products into a single package, and then creating a single SKU for that package before shipping. It’s basically what goes on behind the scenes to create a “package deal” that is easily recognizable to those picking and packing. Kitting has become very popular in recent years.
Kitting specialists have a lot of work to do. This includes assisting with picking and packing of orders, unpacking and receiving inbound product shipments into the warehouse management system, as well as kitting multiple products into single packages. It’s not an easy job and they have to go through a lot of training.
Kitting is when individually separate but related items are picked, packaged, and then supplied together into one package, with a new SKU number for the package. As an example, if you are ordering an electric toothbrush, you might also want to order dental floss and mouthwash. Kitting is the process of combining all that together as one order.
Most third-party logistic (3PL) providers offer kitting and assembly services. This includes picking and packing multiple separate but related items into a single grouping before it is packaged into one container. 3PLs are recognized for their accuracy and speed when doing this.
The process of taking separate but related items and combining them together into a new SKU is known as kitting, or warehouse kitting to be exact. Basically, individual items are pre-assembled into kits in advance of them being ordered so that when they are ordered they can go out right away rather than taking extra time to pick and pack them.
Kitting and staging are more about being efficient and reducing waste. By packing everything together before a “kit” is ordered, there is a heightened level of efficiency particularly by eliminating extra time hunting for items in the warehouse. Customers want to get their orders as soon as possible and proper kitting and staging practices help this happen.
A kitting manager is a party that oversees all kitting processes. There is often a team leader that 3PLs employ in order to make sure that everything is done effectively, accurately, and timely. Kitting managers are trained in such a way that they are then able to find solutions to reduce waste.
Kitting is the process of bundling a variety of different individual items into one package, forming a new SKU, then treated as a singular item to be ordered. In Ecommerce, products can actually be virtually kitted directly on the warehouse management system (WMS), your marketplace, or just physically kitted into sets that are prepackaged.
The process of kitting consists of taking individual but related items and packing them into one package, known as a kit. It typically involves an assembly line along with various picking and packing fulfillment methods. It’s a bit more complex than shipping a singular item.
