    About Our Place<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    As an immigrant settled in California, Shiza Shahid wanted to reconnect with a sense of home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Inspired by the nourishing foods she had grown up with, she started learning to cook, and soon discovered a new passion. The entrepreneur saw the joy that came from home cooking and gathering around a table for a meal \u2013 but also wondered if there was a better way to do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After realizing that no kitchenware brand made products for modern, multicultural cooks, Shiza and her partner, Amir Tehrani, set out to create their own. The pair founded Our Place to invent appliances that celebrated unique cooking traditions while making cooking easier, beginning with their flagship product: the Always Pan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Always Pan quickly became a viral sensation, and Our Place has been growing ever since. The brand has expanded its product line, retail presence, and global market, and continues to delight customers across the world with new and innovative tools to help people connect through cooking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We sat down with Ali Shahid, the COO of Our Place, to discuss how the brand leverages ShipBob\u2019s fulfilment technology and global fulfilment network to streamline operations, maximise cost-savings, and deliver unforgettable customer experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
