We are pleased to announce that over the last month, we have added four new carriers to Shiptheory, further increasing your shipping capabilities.
Sendle (US and AUS)
‘Helping good business deliver.’
Sendle is an Australian company with headquarters in Sydney, and its Australia’s first 100% carbon neutral delivery service and certified B corporation. The company received significant media attention in Australia when they started offering services considerably cheaper than the government-owned Australia Post and in November 2019, Sendle announced its launch in the United States.
Founded in 2014 by James Chin Moody, Sean Geoghegan, and Craig Davis, Sendle helps small e-commerce business flourish by simplifying logistics and making parcel delivery reliable and affordable. According to its owners:
‘Our customers are our bee’s knees and the heart of our business, they are the inventive, entrepreneurial, hard-working heart of the Australian economy. We spend a lot of time listening to our customers; we’re not just a software company that happens to love logistics, we’re game-changers who through great technology, design, and people, build things that matter and make a difference for our customers’.
In 2017, Sendle announced their partnership with DHL eCommerce to facilitate delivery to 220 countries and territories from Australia. They also integrated with major e-commerce companies, including eBay, Shopify, and Xero, among others.
