"Earlstrees gave us the floor space we simply couldn't find further south, and the A43 down to the A14 keeps our Felixstowe containers moving. For big-box volume, Corby has been a genuinely smart call."
eCommerce fulfilment serving Corby and Northamptonshire — Shopify, Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop and Temu picked from a single pool so you never oversell the last unit.
WSUK runs eCommerce fulfilment for Corby brands from one pool across every channel — one pick queue, live inventory sync, branded packing for D2C and plain for marketplaces. From £1.00 per pick plus £0.35, integration £150/week. A43, A6014, A6003 and A14 on the doorstep; we also cover Kettering and Market Harborough.
Splitting stock between channels is how brands end up oversold on one and out of stock on another. A single pool fixes both.
Every channel reads the same available quantity, updated as orders are picked — so a unit sold on TikTok Shop disappears from your Shopify listing immediately.
Orders flow in from every channel into one pick queue and leave the same working day against a 4pm cut-off, with tracking pushed back automatically.
Add a marketplace and the warehouse side is a configuration change, not a new supplier, a new contract and a stock transfer.
The same two tiers as every WSUK service. Short-term rate card for monthly rolling accounts — pay per order, no commitment. Long-term contract rates tier down as volume becomes predictable.
Pay-per-use published rates with no commitment.
Locked-in rates on multi-year SLAs.
Most D2C orders — apparel, beauty, accessories.

Corby's story is one of reinvention. The furnaces that once made it a steel town have largely cooled, but the appetite for heavy industry left behind a legacy of large sites, robust infrastructure and a workforce used to shift-based operations. Today the NN17 and NN18 districts are among the East Midlands' densest warehousing clusters, feeding out onto the A43 towards the A14 in one direction and Northampton in the other. The Rugby and DIRFT core lies about forty minutes away.
Earlstrees is the estate that most defines the town's modern trade - a sprawling industrial and distribution area that has drawn national retailers and 3PLs to Corby's edge. Weldon and Willowbrook extend the footprint, and between them they host steel and metals processing alongside food production and the big-box distribution that increasingly dominates. Rockingham, with its motor speedway heritage and adjoining development land, sits just to the town's north, adding to the sense of a place built at scale.
What Corby lacks in direct motorway frontage it makes up for through the A14, the crucial east-west freight artery reached via the A43. That corridor links the port of Felixstowe to the M1 and M6, and Corby sits neatly on the approach. Kettering, Market Harborough and Wellingborough all lie within a short drive, so a base here serves the northern Northamptonshire warehousing belt while keeping the wider triangle and the east-coast ports within comfortable reach.
The road access matters here because Northamptonshire sits close enough to the national network that a 4pm cut-off is a genuine cut-off. For Corby brands running several channels, that means one despatch standard across all of them rather than a different promise per marketplace.

Local answers for Corby, plus the questions every ecommerce fulfilment client asks.
It does. The old steelworks left large, well-serviced sites and a workforce accustomed to industrial shift work. Steel and metals processing continues alongside food production and distribution, giving Corby an unusually deep industrial character for its size.
Earlstrees Industrial Estate is the obvious starting point - it's the largest and most established, home to national retailers and 3PLs. Weldon and Willowbrook add further capacity nearby, so there's genuine choice for large-footprint warehousing.
Via the A43, which runs down to the A14 within a short drive. The A14 is the main east-west corridor linking Felixstowe to the M1 and M6, so Corby sits well for both east-coast port traffic and cross-country trunking.
Yes. The DIRFT and Rugby core is around forty minutes away, and the A43/A14 combination gives quick onward access to the M1 and M6. Corby works as an eastern anchor of the triangle's warehousing belt.
Kettering is very close, with Market Harborough, Wellingborough and the Rockingham area all a short hop away. That covers the northern Northamptonshire and southern Leicestershire distribution belt comfortably from an NN17 or NN18 base.
Yes — your own store plus Amazon, eBay, TikTok Shop, Temu and Shopify all pull into one pick queue from a single stock pool held at our Golden Triangle warehouse. One count, one invoice, no allocating stock by channel.
Live availability. The moment a unit is allocated to a pick it leaves the figure pushed to every channel, so the last one cannot sell twice — which is what causes the cancellations that damage marketplace accounts.
Same working day on a 4pm cut-off. Late carrier collections mean a Corby brand’s afternoon orders still make that day’s despatch and land on a next-day service.
Picks from £1.00 under 3kg, £1.50 for 3–19.99kg, £3.95 for 20kg+, plus £0.35 order processing. Storage from £4.50/pallet/week, integration £150/week covering all channels, returns from £1.25.
Yes — D2C orders ship in your boxes with your inserts while marketplace orders ship plain, from the same stock. We hold your packaging alongside your product in Corby’s nearest WSUK warehouse.
