We built a 3PL because no one shipped like we did.
YNK is a 3PL and ecommerce fulfillment center in Elmwood Park, New Jersey. We started it inside Veiled, our own fashion brand, because we couldn’t find a warehouse that moved as fast as we needed, so we built one. It now ships more than 1.2 million orders a year, for our own brands and for brands like yours, with the same people and the same system.
Switching before the holidays? Most brands are live in under two weeks, and your handling and storage rates hold through peak. How peak runs here
Dock 10A typical weekday
A day at Dock 10, from the orders that came in overnight to the last carrier pickup.
Morning
Orders in
The orders that came in overnight from Shopify, Amazon and TikTok Shop are already in the WMS. The team starts with the ones that need a decision, an address that won’t verify or a unit the shelf doesn’t have.
9amET
Doors open, Monday to Friday.
Morning
Receiving
Inbound pallets are counted at the dock and every unit is scanned onto the shelf, with its lot and expiry date recorded where that applies. Your packing list and our count have to agree before anything becomes sellable.
One weekend
Found, from inbound to first orders shipped.
All day
Pick and pack
Every pick is scanned, and before anything goes in a box someone scans it against the order. On a six-unit order that’s six scans. Boxes are packed to your rules and labeled at the bench.
Under 0.3%
pick and pack error, across more than 1.2 million orders a year.
Afternoon
Restock and count
Pick bins are refilled from the reserve racking, and cycle counts reconcile the shelf to the system, so the count on your dashboard is the count on the shelf.
$0.65
per cubic foot per month for storage, billed on the space you use.
By 6pm
Carrier pickup
Every major carrier picks up here daily. Tracking syncs back to your store, and your customer gets the shipping notification the way they do today.
More than 1.2 million
orders a year, to all 50 states, Canada, the UK and the GCC.
Start with fulfillment. Add the rest of the back office when you want it.
3PL
Fulfillment, run by people who ship their own
Pick and pack with every unit scanned against the order, pricing itemized per order, no seasonal surcharges on handling or storage, and the live dashboard we run on. Most brands start here.

The whole back office
Logistics, merchandising analytics, finance and operating support from the same team. Brands usually add it once fulfillment is humming.

We built the 3PL we wished we had.
YNK started inside Veiled. We were scaling a DTC brand, and no fulfillment company could keep up with us, so we built our own operation and ran it ourselves. That operation became YNK. Today we ship for Veiled, Nominal, Makks, Found, FSF, Noun, Skalli Essentials and Drink Palestina, across fashion, jewelry, supplements, beauty and beverage, more than 1.2 million orders a year at under 0.3% pick error. We’ve sat on your side of this table, and it shows in how we run the warehouse.
