GlobalPost, a leading international shipping courier, is now
available to UK retailers through ShipStation, a leading
cloud-based ecommerce shipping solution. This marks a major step
forward in its global expansion strategy, following its successful
entry into the Canadian market earlier this year.
Through ShipStation, UK retailers can now use GlobalPost to ship
easily and affordably to over 200 countries and territories around
the world. GlobalPost is trusted by over 100,000 active shippers,
supported by over 200 successful partnerships, and brings
significant benefits to UK retailers – particularly in the wake of
Brexit, which has complicated international shipping with new
regulatory hurdles and customs requirements.
The UK represents a critical market for GlobalPost's expansion,
driven by its robust ecommerce sector and strategic position as a
gateway to Europe. As UK retailers navigate increased customs
paperwork and fluctuating shipping rates, GlobalPost stands ready
to support them. With pre-negotiated shipping rates, streamlined
customs processes, and automatic HS code assignment, GlobalPost
simplifies international shipping, enabling British businesses to
seamlessly reach a global customer base.
“GlobalPost's expansion into the UK unlocks new opportunities
for British retailers,” said Shea Felix, Vice President of
GlobalPost. “By simplifying the complexities that come with
international shipping, we enable these businesses to accelerate
their growth into new markets. GlobalPost removes the obstacles of
cross-border shipping, allowing businesses to focus on what they do
best – serving their customers. This is a significant step forward
in facilitating seamless global trade.”
“Expanding GlobalPost to ShipStation customers in the UK is a
testament to our commitment to helping retailers worldwide,” said
Matthew Trattles, Vice President of Product at Auctane, parent
company of ShipStation. “ShipStation's robust platform integrates
with hundreds of couriers and marketplaces, streamlining the entire
shipping process for UK retailers. By incorporating GlobalPost, we
offer retailers reliable and cost-effective international shipping,
empowering UK businesses to manage their operations efficiently,
reduce costs, and improve international delivery speeds. This
ultimately supports their growth in the global marketplace.”
