Gloss Ventures, a portfolio of health & beauty brands, including Glossmetics and SACHEU Beauty, has a mission to innovate and create beauty products for the next generation. Their challenge was to expand globally and ensure cost-effective, reliable, and fast international shipping.
Challenges with Previous International Shipping Carrier
Before partnering with Passport, Gloss Ventures used a global shipping carrier for international shipping.
They faced several challenges with this solution:
- Cost: The high shipping costs were a significant concern for Gloss Ventures, which impacted their profit margins.
- Friction Point from Cart Setup: Customers were unexpectedly receiving duty bills at the time of delivery, which created friction and resulted in more return-to-sender parcels and orders declined upon receipt.
Why Gloss Ventures Switched to Passport
Gloss Ventures decided to make a switch to Passport Shipping due to several reasons:
- Cost-Effectiveness: Passport offered affordable international delivery options, which helped Gloss Ventures reduce their shipping expenses.
- Peer Recommendation: The recommendation from peers who had experienced the benefits of Passport’s services played a crucial role in their decision.
- Streamlined Operations: Passport’s Seller of Record (SOR) program simplified several processes for their finance and operations teams, particularly in the UK and Eurozone, where Brexit had created complexities.
