Kitting
Assembling multiple individual items into a single sellable bundle before it ships.
In practice
It's typically done during fulfillment rather than manufacturing, which lets a business offer bundle promotions without permanently combining inventory - if the bundle stops selling, the individual components can still be sold separately.
A warehouse worker combines a razor, blade cartridges, and shaving cream into a single "starter kit" box only after an order for that specific bundle comes in.
Why it matters
Kitting lets a business test bundle offers without permanently committing inventory to that exact combination, which keeps the downside low if a bundle doesn't sell.
Worth knowing
- Usually done at the fulfillment stage, not during manufacturing, keeping component inventory flexible.
- Requires its own SKU for the finished kit, separate from the individual component SKUs.
- Adds labor cost per order, which should be factored into the bundle's pricing.
