ShipBob
Outsourced fulfilment for DTC Shopify brands with global warehouses
About the Tool
ShipBob is the leading third-party logistics provider built specifically for DTC e-commerce. Rather than managing your own warehouse, you ship inventory to ShipBob's network and it handles pick, pack, and ship for every Shopify order automatically. The Shopify integration is native: orders flow directly, tracking numbers sync back, and inventory levels update in real time across all warehouse locations. ShipBob's distributed network model means you can split inventory across multiple fulfilment centres to reduce shipping zones and therefore shipping costs for a geographically dispersed customer base. The platform works well for brands shipping between 400 and 10,000 orders per month. Below that threshold the per-order fees often exceed what a local 3PL or self-fulfilment would cost. Above it, enterprise-scale operations typically negotiate custom contracts.
Key Features
Multi-Location Fulfilment
Distribute inventory across US, UK, EU, Canadian, and Australian fulfilment centres. Automated order routing sends each order to the centre that minimises shipping distance and cost.
Native Shopify Integration
Orders flow to ShipBob automatically on placement. Tracking numbers sync back to Shopify and trigger customer notification emails without manual intervention.
Inventory and Demand Forecasting
Dashboard shows inventory levels, days of supply, and reorder recommendations per SKU per fulfilment centre. Reduces stockouts without over-investing in warehouse holding.
Returns Processing
Handles return label generation, receipt, inspection, and restocking. Returns portal integrates with ShipBob's fulfilment workflow without requiring a separate returns platform.
