Our take
As a fulfillment company specialising in "hard-to-deliver" packages - such as plants and flowers - arena.online operates the marketing, order fulfillment, and delivery for its own consumer brands as well as retail partners across Britain.
Bringing both digital and technological innovations to the rather old-fashioned fulfillment sector, the company aims to innovate with the times to maintain its leading position in a changing landscape - where consumer expectations are getting higher and higher.
To this end, arena.online is currently focussed on a number of updates to its digital presence and in-house workflows, presenting a strong roadmap that will ensure it can take its history of success into the digitised future.
