Coupang and ACI Worldwide Express Introduce ACI Fulfillment to Boost Global Seller Sales in South Korea
Coupang, one of the world’s fastest-growing retail companies, has partnered with leading global logistics provider ACI Worldwide Express to launch ACI Fulfillment for Coupang Sellers, a streamlined service aimed at helping e-commerce businesses in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand expand their sales to South Korea. This innovative program provides sellers with an easy, cost-effective way to tap into one of the most lucrative e-commerce markets in the world, benefiting both sellers and South Korean consumers.
A Lucrative Market Opportunity
South Korea presents a highly attractive opportunity for global sellers, with 98% of South Koreans aged 20 to 39 shopping online regularly. This high level of digital engagement, coupled with the popularity of cross-border e-commerce, makes the country a prime destination for businesses seeking to expand their reach.
ACI Fulfillment for Coupang Sellers simplifies the process for international sellers to enter this thriving market. Sellers need only send their products to one of ACI’s regional distribution centers located in Europe or Australia. From there, ACI takes full responsibility for the fulfillment process, including storage, picking, packing, and shipping. The service also ensures reliable delivery to customers in South Korea, allowing sellers to focus on growing their business without worrying about logistical complexities.
Faster Shipping at Lower Costs
A key advantage of the ACI Fulfillment program is its ability to deliver products to South Korean customers significantly faster and at a lower cost compared to traditional global shipping methods. Orders fulfilled through this program reach customers in as little as four days—up to three times faster than the typical shipping options, which can take 10 to 15 days.
Moreover, the shipping costs under this program are substantially lower, making it an appealing option for sellers aiming to maximize profitability. To further support new sellers entering the Korean market, ACI offers free storage at its distribution centers for up to six months upon first use. This generous incentive removes a common barrier for businesses considering international expansion, enabling them to test the market with minimal upfront investment.
Enhanced Selection for Consumers
The partnership between Coupang and ACI also benefits South Korean consumers, who can enjoy access to a broader selection of products from international sellers. With ACI’s logistics expertise ensuring swift and reliable delivery, shoppers gain confidence in purchasing goods from overseas, bolstered by Coupang’s trusted platform.
