Luminous X AMZ Prep Partnership
Great Operations Start With the Right Software and the Right Fulfillment Partner
Luminous is the modern operating system built specifically for how DTC and omnichannel brands actually operate – managing inventory across 3PLs and FBA, coordinating purchasing from multiple suppliers, fulfilling orders through various channels, and scaling wholesale alongside direct sales.
Luminous handles the intelligence side. AMZ Prep handles the execution side. Together, brands get a full operational loop from purchase order to delivered package, without the gaps that typically live between software and warehouse.
- Built with a community of trusted eCommerce partners
Why AMZ Prep Partnered With Luminous
The Reason This Partnership Exists
- We work with hundreds of brands every year. The ones who struggle most with fulfillment aren’t struggling because of warehouse errors
- They’re struggling because their upstream data is broken. Wrong inventory counts, no demand forecasting, purchase orders built on guesswork
- Luminous solves the upstream problem that no amount of fulfillment precision can fix on its own
- Built specifically for multi-channel commerce brands, not retrofitted from enterprise software that was never designed for DTC, Amazon, and wholesale running at the same time
- When our clients run on Luminous, their fulfillment operations run cleaner, faster, and with fewer surprises
Two Companies, One Operational Loop :
What Luminous Brings
- Real-time inventory visibility across owned warehouses, 3PLs, FBA, and retail locations in one place
- Demand forecasting built around seasonality, growth trends, and marketing calendars
- Automated purchase orders based on actual stock levels and supplier lead times
- Landed cost tracking so brands know their true margins, not just gross revenue
- Wholesale and B2B order management running alongside DTC in the same system
- 60-day implementation, not the 12-plus month process that traditional ERPs require
What AMZ Prep Brings:
FBA prep and inbound shipment creation across 50+ fulfillment centers with zero placement fees
DTC fulfillment with 1-day and 2-day shipping across the US, Canada, and Europe
B2B retail fulfillment for brands selling into wholesale and retail channels at the same time
Middle mile logistics that reduce placement fees and speed up Amazon inbound times
Cold storage, returns processing, and specialized handling for complex product categories
Who This Partnership Is Built For
Multi-Channel Brands Scaling Fast
Selling on Amazon, DTC, and wholesale at the same time with inventory spread across multiple locations. Your current tools were not built for this level of complexity.
Brands Outgrowing Spreadsheets
Reconciling inventory manually, building purchase orders by hand, and reacting to stockouts instead of preventing them. You need operational clarity before the next growth phase creates bigger problems.
Teams Running Lean Operations
Small ops teams managing high volume through 3PLs and FBA. Every system needs to earn its place. Luminous and AMZ Prep work together so your team is not spending time connecting them manually.
Brands Expanding Into New Markets
Moving into Canada, Europe, or new retail channels and needing both the software and the fulfillment infrastructure to support it, without rebuilding your operations from scratch.
How Luminous and AMZ Prep Work Together
Inventory Sync Across the Full Network
Luminous integrates with AMZ Prep’s fulfillment operations. Stock levels, inbound shipments, and order status flow into the Luminous dashboard so brands are not logging into separate portals to understand what is happening across their fulfillment network.
Demand-Driven Replenishment
When Luminous generates a replenishment recommendation or creates a purchase order, quantities are informed by AMZ Prep’s current stock position. Replenishment is based on actual demand signals and actual fulfillment capacity, not a static reorder point.
FBA Prep That Matches Your Inventory Plan
AMZ Prep receives inbound shipments aligned with Luminous timelines. FBA prep, labeling, carton creation, and inbound freight are handled to Amazon standards, without the placement fees that cut into margins.
DTC and Wholesale Fulfillment on the Same Network
As Luminous manages orders across DTC, wholesale, and retail channels in one system, AMZ Prep fulfills them from the same fulfillment network. Brands are not managing separate 3PLs for separate channels.
Coordinated Onboarding
Brands onboarding to both go through a coordinated setup. Luminous handles ERP configuration in their 60-day implementation. AMZ Prep’s onboarding team connects fulfillment workflows during that same window so both are live together, not one after the other.
