“Zenstores pulled out all the stops, adding custom functionality to make our pick, pack team and warehouse operation far more efficient.”
Every step of dispatch, in one flow.
Orders batched automatically
Zenstores groups the morning's orders into batches by size, service and location, so your team starts picking without sorting anything first.
Pick routes mapped for you
Every pick batch comes with the shortest route through your warehouse locations, in the order the picker should walk it.
Scan-to-pack confirmation
Barcode scanning checks every item against the order as it goes in the box, so the wrong product never leaves the building.
Paperwork printed in the flow
Job sheets, packing slips, invoices and customs documents print at the right point in the process, not as a separate job.
Carriers booked automatically
Your rules pick the service, book the shipment and print the label as the box is closed, with no one choosing a carrier by hand.
Start picking the minute you start work
Zenstores organises the morning's orders into batches automatically.

How does pick, pack and dispatch work in Zenstores?
Order batching, optimised pick routes, scan-to-pack and automated carrier booking, all in one flow.
How are orders batched?
Orders batch automatically or at a time you set, for example your daily dispatch cut-off. Your team arrives to batches already organised, ready to start work.
How are items picked, scanned and packed?
Your team follows the mapped pick route and scans each item to confirm it matches the order, packing in 62% less time than manual processes. A wrong scan gets flagged before it's packed, and the correct label prints the moment the last item's confirmed.
How does dispatch happen automatically?
The carrier gets booked, the label prints and the sales channel updates automatically, all before the next order loads, so your team stays in the packing flow rather than stopping to handle dispatch separately.
Zenstores handles pick, pack, and dispatch with batch picking, pick route optimisation, scan-to-pack, and automated carrier booking, built specifically for ecommerce dispatch rather than general warehouse operations. Nutrition Geeks used custom automation flows to cut fulfilment times and reduce pick and pack mistakes while scaling monthly orders by 750%. You get the depth to handle complex, high-volume fulfilment without the implementation overhead of a full WMS.
Most businesses have core shipping live within a day. Setting up batch picking, pick routing, and scan-to-pack for your warehouse typically takes a little longer, most are fully configured within three days, with the Zenstores team supporting with setup throughout.
Zenstores is designed so new pickers can get up to speed within an hour, even with batch picking, route optimisation, and multi-carrier dispatch running behind the scenes. The system catches mistakes as they happen, a wrong scan gets flagged immediately, so new starters don't need to know all the edge cases to get it right.
Zenstores pulls orders from Shopify, WooCommerce, Etsy, eBay, Amazon, Adobe Commerce, and Magento into the same pick pack system, so your team works from one flow regardless of where an order came from.
Zenstores works with your existing carrier accounts, or you can ship on Zenstores' pre-negotiated rates. The dispatch workflow is the same either way.
Zenstores automatically surfaces VIP, gift, and international orders, so time-sensitive orders get picked and packed first without your team having to manually flag or search for them.
Zenstores generates customs documentation automatically as part of the pack flow for international orders, so there's no separate step or manual paperwork once an order's ready to ship.
Most barcode scanners work with Zenstores, though we recommend the Zebra 2278 for the smoothest setup. If you're unsure what you need, just ask, our team's happy to advise.
There's no upper limit. Zenstores batches and routes orders automatically, so a batch might be a handful of orders or several hundred, and capacity scales with your order volume rather than being fixed.
If a scanned item doesn't match the order, it's flagged immediately, before it's packed, so the mistake gets caught at the point of picking rather than after the parcel's sealed. Zenstores logs the flag against the order so nothing gets missed.
Yes, you can configure dedicated batches by service level with their own cutoffs so standard, express and same day orders are prioritised correctly for dispatch. Zenstores will automatically route these batches of orders directly to pickers and packers throughout the day so orders are dispatched based on priority
