International E-Commerce on the Rise
International e-commerce growth continues to outperform many domestic e-commerce markets, and the BoxC e-commerce logistics management platform enables logistics providers at all levels with the immediate capability to ship parcels globally.
The BoxC platform enables logistics providers like airlines, carriers, freight forwarders, postal providers, 3PLs, and e-commerce retailers to easily expand transportation options globally and manage every last detail of international e-commerce logistics.
“I am thrilled to be part of the BoxC team and excited to be able to offer a unique solution, that provides shippers of all sizes with the ability to include airlines, freight forwarders, 3PL’s and even postal authorities with a simple single API platform that gives them greater control of their supply chain, access to carrier and route optimization, improves delivery performance and significantly reduces their shipping costs,” said Waverek.
Unlike traditional carriers, BoxC allows for the selection of only what’s needed for a shipment. BoxC connects a traditionally fragmented and growing list of service providers necessary for international e-commerce logistics under one platform. This includes first and last-mile carriers, parcel insurance, airlines, customs brokers and agencies, warehouses, and data services for compliance, taxes and duties, and address verification. Using these providers, routes are created for each origin and destination country. Because of the robustness of the technology, these routes can be created dynamically, may use different service providers, and can even be customized down to an individual customer. Every route, no matter how complicated, automatically incorporates the requirements and costs of each service provider in the transportation chain to optimize for cost and speed.
“Having been both the logistics customer and supplier over my 40-year career, BoxC’s platform simplifies and solves the complexity of numerous and painful integrations that one might still experience today,” he said. “The frictionless BoxC platform provides full transparency of the who, how, where, and when of your international shipment, whereas other international shipping providers today, still white label or mask the final mile delivery agent and don’t disclose what label and what delivery company delivers your package in a particular country. At BoxC we make it our business to be transparent and frictionless,” he says.
