CHICAGO and SEATTLE, Feb. 9, 2023 – Better Trucks, a technology-driven logistics firm focused on rapid parcel delivery, today announced a partnership with Shipium, the premier enterprise shipping platform for ecommerce retailers, brands and 3PLs.
Better Trucks is a regional last-mile parcel carrier with a focus on rapid residential deliveries. The firm leverages a modern technology stack and interconnected network to drive faster delivery times, better end-to-end visibility into the lifecycle of each and every parcel and more responsive, one-to-one customer service.
“There is no question that faster shipping options at a lower cost are now central to how modern operators plan out their network,” said Jason Murray, CEO of Shipium. “They need modern carriers like Better Trucks to make that strategy a reality. We are excited to be the premier enterprise platform where shippers can get easier and faster access to Better Trucks’ services.”
Shipium is the leading ecommerce shipping platform that helps retailers solve “the Prime problem” by modernizing their shipping software stack. Customers turn to Shipium when fast, affordable, and on-time delivery becomes a business priority. Most customers transition from single-threading a national carrier to utilizing 6 carriers, on average, in their first quarter of using Shipium.
“Consumer expectations around delivery are unwavering, and ecommerce shippers need partners like Better Trucks to improve speed, accuracy, and costs in order to meet those demands,” said Andy Whiting, co-founder and CEO of Better Trucks. “But all too often, their shipping technology lets them down. They need a modern solution like Shipium to improve time-to-value and diversify carriers.”
The partnership is a natural fit for businesses looking to improve their last-mile performance. Combined, the two firms make next-day and two-day delivery a regular option while reducing the costs associated with faster shipping outcomes.
