Our take
For many manufacturers, scaling their eCommerce reach and revenue can be costly and complex. Spreetail solves this problem by acting as an end-to-end eCommerce partner for manufacturers.
Spreetail is one of a raft of eCommerce accelerators that have seen impressive growth in recent years. However, its end-to-end nature sets it apart from many of its competitors. The company manages seven fulfilment centres providing next-day delivery, and handles all their clients' customer service and returns needs. Clients can sell across all major platforms including Amazon, Target and Walmart.
Spreetail's impressive in-house ad management and listing optimization offers, combined with its inventory forecasts and focus on quality customer service has served it well. Expanding its delivery reach has been a key aspect of the company's continued success.
