Sendcloud, a provider offering an all-in-one shipping platform for e-commerce businesses, has announced a launch into the UK market. The company notes that online sales in the UK have skyrocketed lately, showing year-on-year growth in August of 51.6%, with further growth set to come from demand outside the UK in the coming years.

The company claims that its all-in-one shipping platform reduces the complexity of international shipping by giving online retailers access to local carriers across Europe, turning cross-border shipping into a stress-free sales accelerator. Its platform automates the challenges retailers face in the shipping and delivery process, reducing costs and improving delivery times while providing retailers with a full-service system that works from checkout to returns.
Sendcloud says that the launch of its platform in the UK will provide online retailers with the ability to integrate their e-commerce store with UK-based shipping carriers such as Royal Mail, DPD, UPS and Hermes, as well as both major and local European carriers.
Rob van den Heuvel, CEO and co-founder, Sendcloud, commented, “While bricks and mortar stores continue to recover from the pandemic, e-commerce is booming and as a result, the online customer experience is becoming more demanding. Handing over a parcel is no longer a simple business transaction but part of the overall customer experience, so creating a seamless experience is a win-win situation for both online retailers and consumers. Launching Sendcloud into the UK market provides a great opportunity for us to empower British e-commerce businesses and retailers with a simple, scalable shipping solution.”
