Tidy Paws, a pet-accessories brand, is bringing its fulfilment in-house and has given notice. The account is Offboarding: its last trading day is five weeks away, its stock is still on your shelves, and one last delivery is booked for next week.
What's happened
| When | What happened |
|---|---|
| 11 months ago | Tom opened the account, and Gemma, the MD, set up her login the same evening. |
| 10½ months ago | The account went live. Orders from two suppliers arrived on one truck and were received as a single delivery. |
| 3 weeks ago | Gemma gave two months' notice. Tom started offboarding, with the last trading day set for when the remaining stock will be collected. |
| This month | A final top-up delivery was ordered and booked in for next week, before the last trading day. |
