"Enterprise Logistics for Everyone" Made a Reality By Shipwire

Shipwire Revolutionizes Cloud-Based Logistics


PALO ALTO, CA--(Marketwire - Feb 2, 2012) - Shipwire Inc., the leading provider of order fulfillment services with warehouses in the U.S., Canada, Europe and Asia, today revolutionized logistics for growing global brands worldwide. The redesigned Shipwire website answers the challenges facing today's expanding global brands. Shipwire provides businesses instant access to global markets, and unified operations management from a global logistics network. Shipwire also provides the tools to expand distribution partnerships, while engaging in new emerging sales channels like social, community, and flash-sales.

"When we released Shipwire in 2006, our emphasis was on servicing entrepreneurs that were taking new brands to market," states Damon Schechter, Shipwire Founder and CEO. "Our customers and our platform have since evolved. We've learned that the mid-market multi-channel seller has been poorly served. We're seeing more and more of these sellers migrate over to Shipwire to automate their sales, via the Shipwire cloud-based logistics platform, as they expand their global brands overseas. Our previous website spoke to younger brands, and didn't highlight our value proposition to these mid-market merchants, as they sought to expand globally and into more channels. Today that changes."

Enterprise Logistics For Everyone™. More than a tag line, the company mission statement is backed by a Leadership Manifesto to all Shipwire clients. The Shipwire website has been redesigned from the ground up to better highlight the world-class cloud-logistics capabilities for both new entrepreneurs and established mid-market brands seeking to go global. The new featured content includes:

  • Why Shipwire fulfillment video (YouTube) explains how enterprise shipping outsourcing can benefit today's global brands.
  • Expand Overseas - Reach markets in North America, Europe and Asia like a local seller.
  • Reduce Time and Costs - Ensure every shipment sent to buyers is optimized for the lowest shipping costs and delivery times.
  • Instant Sales Channels - Easily connect your sales channels and expand into emerging ones like Social Commerce.
  • Expand Distribution Partnerships - Sell to retailers, drop ship and sell through flash sales sites and social networks.
  • Customize Your Delivery Experience - Look good to your buyers using intelligent routing, professional packaging, and delightful extras for your customers and retailers.

In 2012, growing global brands can look to Shipwire to push the barriers of shipping software and outsource product fulfillment services. The Shipwire Hong Kong warehouse, currently in beta with select merchants, effectively opens the Asia-Pacific market to global brands. Shipwire Anywhere is free order management software for businesses. A free account on Shipwire comes with over 50 e-commerce services integrations and enterprise support. Shipwire is the only enterprise fulfillment provider designed from the ground-up with a SaaS (Software as a Service) model -- no contracts, no commitments and volume-based pricing.
