Shipium is the leading e-commerce shipping platform for retailers and 3PLs. Customers turn to Shipium when fast, affordable, and on-time delivery becomes a business priority. The company was founded in 2019 by industry veterans from Amazon and Zulily.

While CDL has been a leading carrier partner for several decades, it has seen an uptick in customer interest the last several years as e-commerce has grown during the Covid-19 pandemic. Shippers are looking to diversify their network, turning to proven regional carriers to take on more volume. The major constraint for new CDL customers has been the legacy technologies that delay availability. By partnering with Shipium, customers can now turn on CDL in a matter of hours, not months, at all warehouses.

“Customers want CDL’s reliable service and competitive rates, but are constantly blocked by old technology,” said Michael Curcio, Vice President of Business Development at CDL. “We love working with Shipium because we have the confidence that our customers can tap into our network immediately. Everybody wins.”
