Our take
In today’s thriving eCommerce ecosystem, postal services and package deliveries have come to serve as the backbone that holds it all together. Sendle is a 100% carbon neutral shipping carrier designed specifically for small businesses.
Whilst the company prides itself on efficient transport from A to B, it truly stands out for its service to small businesses. Due to a surge in orders and deliveries as shopping has become increasingly online, traditional carriers like UPS and FedEX have increased rates that are unaffordable for small businesses.
Sendle has continued to raise funding that has been invested into building out its US network of logistics, delivery and technology partners. It has integrated with leading platforms, including eBay, Etsy, Shopify and WooCommerce, and will continue to grow and expand to help an even greater number of early stage companies.
