Ingram Micro Commerce & Lifecycle Services, leveraging its Shipwire platform, recently announced it has secured additional capacity in seven new warehouses to meet the global demand for ecommerce fulfillment solutions. Shipwire is a cloud-based order management platform that connects to ecommerce shopping carts and marketplaces, syncing them with warehouse management systems to provide fast shipping and on-demand visibility.
The added capacity across North America and Europe complements the company’s existing network of 150+ international warehouses and enables a broader client base to use Ingram Micro’s forward logistics solution. Brands and retailers seeking order fulfillment for products in verticals such as Consumer Electronics, Nutrition, Health & Beauty, Beverages and Fashion may now leverage the company’s global fulfillment network through the Shipwire platform.
Limited access to brick and mortar stores during the pandemic has accelerated adoption and reliance on ecommerce, globally, requiring brands and retailers to seek forward logistics services from 3PLs. Ingram Micro has responded to this demand by establishing relationships with third-party logistics providers across North America, enabling them to fulfill Shipwire orders.
“In support of new demands on our current and target customers, we’re thrilled to add seven new fulfillment locations,” said Marcelo Wesseler, president of Shipwire, Inc. and vice president of ecommerce at Ingram Micro. “In this time of record ecommerce growth, consumers are more reliant than ever on fast and efficient logistics services. Businesses are already operating at peak levels and the holiday season is just around the corner. It is imperative that logistics providers adapt and expand to meet increasing demands and that is exactly what we are doing.”
