US headquartered Shippo, not to be confused with UK freight specialist Shippo Ltd., has extended the number of carrier partners it works with in Europe to enable its platform partners to offer users more domestic shipping options in the UK, France, Italy and Spain. This augments Shippo’s existing service area offered via an ongoing partnership with Royal Mail.
“eCommerce has created a global marketplace where the things someone buys are no longer confined to their geographic location – and the last two years have only accelerated this online option – yet many SMBs still maintain a US-centric mindset,” said Vince DeAngelis, SVP carrier partnerships Shippo. “The reality is, countries in Western Europe represent four of the top eCommerce market. Our partners are looking to scale, and this expansion further reinforces our commitment to supporting their vision and enabling that growth on a global level.”
The news follows the recent launch of Shippo for Platforms which directly integrates Shippo’s full shipping capabilities into the existing experience for leading eCommerce platform providers, including Shopify.
Shippo plans to offer service for additional markets including Ireland and The Netherlands later this year.
