However, when managed incorrectly, e-commerce can actually turn into an expensive play. First, since most fulfillment facilities were built before the rise of e-commerce, they're configured to fulfill orders to brick-and-mortar stores, which means fulfilling individual orders for consumers adds incremental costs. After all, picking a full shipping unit worth of items takes proportionately less time per item than picking individual items for consumers.
