Expand Your Business Across Australia

In 2020, ecommerce revenue exceeded $34.5 billion in Australia, and is expected to grow 6.2% annually 2021-2026.

By fulfiling orders within Australia, you can save money and time while expanding your business internationally with easy. It works by bulk shipping inventory to our Sydney and/or Melbourne-based fulfilment centres. That way, you don’t have to ship Australian orders individually, saving money and headache from customs and import duties.

ShipBob also operates locations across the globe. By storing inventory across the globe, you have the opportunity to expand your customer reach and meet expectations around fast, affordable shipping.

No matter where your customers are located, you can provide a consistent experience while increasing average order value and reducing cart abandonment

Customs, duties and freight

When it comes to dealing with customs, import duties, and becoming a non-resident importer, ShipBob will walk you through the process of sending freight to our Australian fulfilment centre. We’ll work with your current carrier or freight partners, or you can leverage ShipBob’s relationships with cross-border freight specialists.

“It’s so helpful knowing that we have the options to expand so easily. We know that we can compare markets simply, and because ShipBob has already set up multiple fulfilment centres in various countries, it’s a simple choice. We don’t need to compare the logistics as intensely.”

Nakisah Williams, Founder of Craft Club Co.

Shipping Times & Couriers

Once you ship inventory to our Australian location, you have the option to choose between standard or expedited shipping options. The average transit time to all of Australia is 1-7 business days. ShipBob partners with Australia Post for shipments within Australia and will continue to add more couriers.

“I can’t tell you how much of a godsend it was that ShipBob opened an Australia fulfilment centre. I hope it dominates that market — the alternatives are terrible. ShipBob truly empowers the world of small businesses.”

Nathan Garrison, Co-Founder and CEO of Sharkbanz

Why ShipBob?

ShipBob is a best-in-class international fulfilment provider. Our entire distribution network is powered by the same technology, which provides more visibility, transparency, and consistency throughout your ecommerce supply chain.

“As an Australian business, we’re excited to gain access to ShipBob’s fulfilment solutions in our home country. With physical distance, time zones, and regulatory differences always playing a factor when expanding internationally, finding a trusted 3PL years ago was definitely not easy.

However, with ShipBob’s easy-to-use, functional, and reliable software, as well as their knowledgeable, responsive team, ShipBob has done a stellar job of supporting our growth in North America, our largest market. We’re keen for and confident that they will bring the same expertise to Australia.”

Distributed inventory

With ShipBob’s network of fulfilment centres, you can strategically split your inventory across our locations to get your products from point A to point B more quickly and affordably. Storing inventory near your customers helps reduce the shipping zones and costs associated with shipping orders to faraway destinations.

Distributed inventory also helps you stay competitive by offering fast shipping to your customers. When an order is placed, ShipBob’s algorithm automatically selects the warehouse and carrier that will give you the quickest turnaround at the best price. This strategy has helped our merchants bring 13% savings to their bottom line.

Order management

At ShipBob, we track your orders from A to Z. Filter orders by status, search for specific orders, see a quick timeline view of where your order is in the fulfilment process (e.g. when an order is picked, packed, or shipped), easily find shipping-related information (e.g., weights, dimensions, or carrier service), and get a quick snapshot of any orders that require action.

With order management software for your direct-to-consumer and wholesale shipments, you can manage subscriptions, make changes to your orders post-purchase, map your store’s shipping options to ShipBob, and automatically share tracking information with your customers.

Reporting and analytics

To provide you with visibility into our operations and performance, and also hold ourselves accountable, ShipBob’s free analytics tool is packed with charts to help you with everything from year-end reporting, to better supply chain decision-making.

Data can be a competitive advantage, and our reports show an analysis of which fulfilment centres you should stock, days of inventory left before you run out, impact of promotions on stock levels, each shipping method’s average cart value, shipping cost, and days in transit, your fulfilment cost per order, storage cost per unit, and much more.

End-to-end customer experience

We care about the customer experience as much as you and strive to be an extension of your team. From custom branded boxes to free plain packaging, ShipBob works with you to provide the unboxing experience you want. We also help you offer the fastest, most cost-effective shipping options to meet your customers’ expectations.

As soon as an order ships, tracking is pushed back to your store. We also offer return management services, allowing customers to generate return shipping labels and track returns, while getting your products processed and back into your available inventory as efficiently as possible.
