A UK Based Fulfilment Company Celebrates Record Growth


A UK-based fulfilment company headquartered in Scunthorpe’s Foxhill Industrial Estate is celebrating a record year of growth after shipping over £10m of products in 2022.


The fast-growing shipping and fulfilment firm achieved an uplift in turnover and expanded its warehouse operations in the UK and overseas. Systemise Fulfilment now has four locations in the UK, two in the USA and one in Europe.


This increase in customers, profits and outputs drove co-directors Kevin Blackburn and Kylie Thomas to make significant investments in their people and operations. The duo expanded their senior leadership team to support business growth, hiring a Head of Business Development, Head of Global Human Resources and Head of Quality Assurance, along with several other internal promotions.


Systemise Fulfilment provides a one-stop solution for prep and order fulfilment needs – handling the receipt, inspection, preparation, quality control, storage, shipping, and order process for Amazon FBA and eCommerce businesses and brands. They have shipped over 4 million units for partners and customers worldwide, with an estimated sales total of over £50 million for their eCommerce partners.


Kevin Blackburn, director of Systemise Fulfilment, explains: “We’ve worked hard to get the business where it is now – constantly reinvesting into our people, processes, and systems. We are lucky to have some fantastic employees, partners and supplies and could not have gotten to this point without their help. There were some challenges in 2022 – with rising costs and inflation, to name a few. But, we focused our energy on the things we could control and grew stronger as a team”


“We look back with gratitude, appreciation and pride that we have had the pleasure to be involved in so many amazing stories for our partners, customers, clients, and community members.”

Now the business has a team of senior expert leaders in place; Systemise Fulfilment will focus on giving eCommerce businesses and brands the ability to expand globally while also expanding its service offerings with the vast number of different platforms available such as Shopify, eBay, and even Walmart.


Systemise Fulfilment will continue to help eCommerce business and brand owners with coaching, education, and tools to drive business growth through automation and strategy. In addition, they’ll seek to offer more support to worthy causes after working with The Baby Rainbow Memorial Garden and The Forge Project in 2022.
