This effort is impacting the fulfillment and delivery of large shipments according to <a href=\"https://data.getconvey.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Convey (opens in a new tab)\">Convey</a>. </strong></p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https://cross-border-magazine.com/de/?s=fulfillment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"fulfillment (opens in a new tab)\">fulfillment</a> time for freight packages increased with 433% in May. The time increased to 75.2 hours on average from 14.1 hours in April. Freight items are large items or a collection of boxes shipped on one pallet, moving as a group. The fulfillment time is the length of time from when a shopper purchases a product to when the order is picked up by the carrier for delivery. </p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On-time deliveries</h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In May, the <a href=\"https://cross-border-magazine.com/de/?s=shipment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"shipment (opens in a new tab)\">shipment</a> volume increased with 49% year over year. However, this is less than the 60% increase which happened in April. Overall, on-time deliveries decreased from 79% in April to 75% of orders delivered on time in May. On-time deliveries for freight shipments decreased as well. In April, 71% of freight shipments were delivered on time. This percentage decreased to 66% in May. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest decline in on-time deliveries was at <a href=\"https://cross-border-magazine.com/de/?s=ups\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"UPS (opens in a new tab)\">UPS</a>. The on-time rates at UPS dipped from 81% in April to 75% in May. In addition, <a href=\"https://cross-border-magazine.com/de/?s=fedex\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"FedEx (opens in a new tab)\">FedEx</a> also experienced a slight dip from 77% in April to 75% in May. </p>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Negative customer feedback</h6>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https://cross-border-magazine.com/de/?s=negative\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Negative (opens in a new tab)\">Negative</a> feedback among customers has also increased. 41% of customers reported that they had a negative delivery experience in May, compared to 33% in April. However, proactive communication about delivery issues have helped the decrease of negative customer feedback. </p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, Convey explains that 49% of consumers would abandon their cart simply due to a mismatch between their expectations for the delivery date and the actual delivery date. On the other hand, 60% of shoppers are willing to give retailers 3-4 additional days to ship their orders.</p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The resounding message to stopping the spread of COVID-19 is to limit contact with people.
