ShipEngine, a premier shipping API service, has been chosen by Trotters Childrenswear, an independent retailer specializing in children’s clothing, to streamline its delivery operations across the UK. Adopting ShipEngine’s API solution marks a strategic move for Trotters Childrenswear to automate shipping processes, enhance business efficiency, and elevate the ecommerce customer experience.
Initially leveraging ShipStation, tailored for small to medium enterprises, Trotters Childrenswear sought a more advanced solution as their online operations expanded. ShipEngine’s robust API seamlessly integrates into their existing technology stack, simplifying shipping logistics and reducing integration costs by providing access to a network of over 100 local and global carriers. With ShipEngine’s API, Trotters Childrenswear now processes 30% more orders daily without added overhead, streamlines administrative tasks associated with online orders, and significantly boosts overall operational efficiency.
David Williams, FC Manager at Trotters Childrenswear, emphasized the impact:
“As our business scales rapidly, having the right technology and partnerships is crucial. ShipEngine’s scalable API solution provides us with the tools we need to support both current demands and future growth. By implementing ShipEngine’s API, we’ve strengthened our shipping and supply chain infrastructure, enabling us to manage increased order volumes seamlessly while maintaining a superior ecommerce experience. This flexibility ensures we can adapt swiftly to evolving business needs.”
Chris Karp, Chief Customer Officer at Auctane, the parent company of ShipEngine and ShipStation, highlighted the collaboration:
“We are delighted to empower Trotters Childrenswear in their growth journey, transitioning from our ShipStation solution to the more sophisticated ShipEngine API. Our API automates shipping operations, eliminating the inefficiencies and complexities of manual processes and integrations. This not only enhances overall efficiency but also delivers a superior delivery experience that exceeds customer expectations, fostering long-term loyalty.”
