I am in the process of building out a store that will sell food, sometimes it is fresh food. Thus certain food items need to ship overnight, while others can go ground, etc. I cannot let the customer choose the ship method, yet I need to allow multiple methods in the store.

Does any one know of a fix/solutions that can set a default ship method by product, then use real time UPS to calculate the ship cost during checkout. I will be using UPS right now. If that is not possible can I fix the method per distributor.

The other complication is that I'm using drop ship methods that split the customer order by distributor.

I'm looking for a solution to my shipping challenge
