Biossance: Driving Global Growth Through Smarter Fulfillment

Originally launched in the US, clean skincare brand Biossance had global ambitions but was limited by high operational costs and subpar customer experience.

 

After partnering with THG, the brand transformed its fulfillment strategy—cutting costs, improving service, and unlocking funds for growth.

The challenges


Before the THG acquisition, Biossance was grappling with:

  • Fulfillment costs exceeding sustainable levels.
  • Customer contact rates at 25%, driven by missed SLAs and poor delivery communication.
  • A low Trustpilot score (2.1), impacting brand credibility.
  • Limited investment capacity in marketing and growth initiatives due to high operational spend.

The solutions


THG Fulfil stepped in with a cost-efficient and performance-driven strategy:

  • Reduced fulfillment costs to just 7% of revenue, saving over $5.6 million annually.
  • Introduced streamlined processes and smarter communication workflows to reduce contact rates and cost per contact by 68%.
  • Implemented new service standards, enhancing CSAT and review volume.
  • Freed up budget for reinvestment into marketing, product innovation, and brand expansion.

The results

  • Customer contact rates dropped from 25% to below 10%, improving service efficiency.
  • Trustpilot rating soared from 2.1 to 4.4 with significantly higher review volume.
  • CSAT increased from 72% to 82.9% post-integration.
  • $5.6 million in annual savings, reinvested into high-impact growth channels.

Biossance is now delivering on its global brand promise with a streamlined operation that delights customers and drives profitability.
