Jama Fulfilment holds, picks and ships stock for growing brands across the North West. What separates us from the shed down the road is not the racking — it is that you can see into it.
The building is racked into more than 1,700 pallet locations across twelve aisles. Every location has a code — aisle, bay, level — and every pallet sits in one of them.
That sounds obvious. It is not how a lot of warehouses actually run, and it is the difference between a stock check taking an afternoon and taking a week.
Because locations are the unit we work in, they are also the unit we charge in. You pay for the bays you occupy, and you can see how many that is at any moment.
The reasons repeat, and all four are visibility problems dressed up as logistics problems.
Stock figures arriving as a spreadsheet on a Friday, already out of date by the time it was opened. Then a phone call to check it, and a different number.
One number at the end of the month with no way of tracing it back to the work that caused it. Querying it meant asking someone to remember three weeks ago.
Ordering, chasing, checking — all of it going through somebody's inbox, and all of it stopping when that person was on holiday.
The stock outgrew the space before the team outgrew the spreadsheet. Racking, a forklift and a driver is a business you did not mean to start.
We built the operation around a live portal rather than bolting one on afterwards. It is the whole point, not a feature.
Different shapes of business, same underlying need: somewhere reliable for the stock to live, and a straight answer about where it is.
We would also rather turn work away than take on stock we cannot handle properly. If your volume is beyond what we should be holding, or your product needs conditions we do not have, you will hear that at the first conversation.
No ticket queue, no account manager in another county reading from a script. When something goes wrong you will be told, rather than finding out later.
We are close enough to most of our clients that they can drop in and see their stock. We encourage it — the quickest way to judge a warehouse is to stand in one.
Close enough to the motorway network for next-day delivery to be routine rather than a promise.
The quickest way to judge a warehouse is to stand in it. Tell us roughly what you hold and we will show you where it would go.
