Metapack integration makes Amazon Shipping more accessible
Amazon Shipping is now available through Metapack, the UK’s leading delivery management company.
Amazon Shipping is dedicated to providing a fast and reliable delivery experience that meets the need of e-commerce retailers across the UK. With fast onboarding and full certification for peace of mind, Metapack makes it simple for businesses to benefit from Amazon Shipping’s experience as a trusted retailer and shipping service provider.
As part of the Metapack network, retailers using the software will be able to enjoy hassle-free access to Amazon Shipping’s next-day delivery service. Retailers can now select to print their labels with Amazon Shipping. This will enable retailers to make the most of our seven-days-a-week collections, reliable next-day delivery service and highly competitive rates.
“We are pleased to welcome Amazon Shipping to the Metapack platform,” says Metapack SVP Carriers, Tom Forbes. “Partnering with a well-respected shipping provider further underlines our mission to equip retailers around the world with unrivalled delivery options.”
Moving fast in a demanding industry
The partnership comes as the e-commerce industry responds to huge changes in consumer behaviour. The effects of the pandemic have not only led to unprecedented demand from online shoppers, but increased delivery expectations.
A December 2020 Amazon Shipping research study, conducted in partnership with RetailX, showed that 91% of online shoppers choose where to buy based on retailers’ speed of delivery, while 95% will purchase again from that retailer if they receive an order quickly¹.
These startling figures show just how important next-day delivery has become in winning and, perhaps more importantly, retaining business. With Amazon Shipping now available to Metapack customers, even more retailers will be well-placed to respond to this trend.
With over 20 years’ experience as a retailer and eight years as a logistics provider, Amazon has gained a unique perspective on the industry, which has helped us to truly understand the importance of a fast, reliable delivery experience. Through constant investment, innovation and customer obsession, we have created a cost-effective, next-day service that delivers at every stage of the journey, and we are extremely happy to make it available to Metapack’s customers.
