Freak Athlete
Freak Athlete used to have rates directly with their 3PL, before establishing their own relationships directly with shipping carriers and aggregators. They have a wide range of weights / dims, so it is highly advantageous for them to have multiple carriers, and to rate shop between carriers at the item level. Within the span of a year, we have cut our last mile shipping expenses by 24.42%, which has put multiple 6 figures back in the business.
Palermo House
Palermo House has a much higher rated weight than actual weight, so by finding a carrier that penalizes less harshly for awkward dimensions, we were able to cut their overall last mile shipping expenses by 16%, and fully completed software, performance testing, and verification in less than two weeks, saving thousands of dollars every month.
