The partnership brings added flexibility and performance to
e-commerce supply chains at a time when brands and retailers need
it most
SEATTLE, Jan. 30,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Shipium, the premier
shipping platform for e-commerce, today announced a partnership
with Quiet Platforms, the collaborative commerce network for brands
and retailers. Quiet Platforms is a wholly owned subsidiary of
American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (NYSE: AEO) that provides an
expansive national delivery service that enables retailers and
brands to gain instant nationwide coverage through a trusted
portfolio of carriers using a universal delivery label, eliminating
the need for multiple integrations, complex invoicing and lengthy
contract negotiations. The network dynamically manages performance
at the shipment level, ensuring the best decision is made for every
parcel to be shipped, based on delivery commitment, quality of
service and delivery cost.
Shipium is the leading e-commerce shipping platform that helps
Quiet Platforms' customers solve "the Prime problem" with modern
parcel management software. Customers turn to Shipium when fast,
affordable and on-time delivery becomes a business priority and
change is blocked by inflexible legacy software.
E-commerce businesses that use both Shipium and Quiet Platforms
will see an improvement in delivery speed, cost and accuracy.
Reliably fast two to three day shipping is the immediate result,
combined with reduced shipping costs. "Evolving the fulfillment
approach from centralized, out-of-market distribution centers to a
nimble network of in-market centers enhances our ability to meet
our customers' needs faster and at a lower total cost of
operations," said Charles Griffith,
CTO of Quiet Platforms. "We're pleased to partner with Shipium to
ease the integration challenges for all shippers
and ensure our retail and brand customers achieve the
speed, efficiency and quality our edge network is designed to
deliver."
"Brands and retailers need innovators like Quiet Platforms to
help reduce the complexity of their supply chains," said
Jason Murray, CEO of Shipium. "We
are excited to complement their ecosystem with logistics technology
that ensures customers are happy and operations are optimized."
Mr. Murray and Charles Griffith,
CTO of Quiet Platforms, will be co-presenting a panel discussion
titled "A Tech-Driven Supply Chain Ecosystem – Addressing the
Cultural Evolution" at the 2023 Manifest conference. Attendees and
media representatives can connect with the partners before or after
the panel presentation at 11:30 am
local time.
