We provide cutting-edge technology and a network of owned and operated fulfillment centers that empower high-growth ecommerce and DTC brands to stress less and grow more. With over 2,500 employees across five countries, we're on a mission to revolutionize fulfillment by providing everything from the fastest click-to-delivery and real-time inventory to custom solutions—all with a merchant-first mindset.

Unrivaled Support: We provide hands-on, "mom and pop" support with a global reach. Our dedicated teams are on-site at every fulfillment center, ready to jump into action.
Transparent Pricing: We believe in honest, long-term partnerships. Our all- inclusive pricing means predictable costs, with no hidden fees or surprises.
Committed to the Future: We invest over $10 million annually in research and development to ensure our technology and services continually evolve, helping merchants plant roots with a partner who is here to stay.

Our Core Values
Our values are the heart of our culture. We're looking for individuals who embody these principles every day.

Merchant-first: We handle the logistics so our merchants can focus on what they do best—growing their business.
Own it: We take ownership of our work, our mistakes, and our successes.
People make ShipMonk: We believe in our team and invest in our people.
Change the score: We challenge the status quo, constantly innovating and improving.
Get sh*t done: We're a fast-paced, high-growth company that values action and results.
