Shippit partners SingPost to provide Singapore fulfilment services

  • Shippit has added SingPost’s delivery services on their platform, plus exclusively-negotiated delivery rates

  • Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) can leverage on the partnership to deliver parcels to all addresses in Singapore
Logistics technology company Shippit has partnered with Singapore Post (SingPost), Singapore’s homegrown e-commerce courier, providing SMEs with delivery options that used to be reserved for larger companies.

SMEs on the Shippit platform will now be able to offer their customers parcel collection at any time by tapping into the island-wide POPStation self-collection network that SingPost currently operates. As part of the deal, Shippit will also offer SingPost’s Speedpost Express Service to SMEs, alongside discounted, pre-negotiated rates for next day and economy delivery services.

The SingPost services are integrated directly into Shippit’s existing online platform, which offers proactive delay avoidance technology and accurate delivery estimates. The platform also enables SMEs to access data-driven delivery insights.

Lavneesh Arora, Director of Market Development at Shippit said: “Shippit aims to disrupt the way legacy logistics firms operate. We are always looking for great partnerships to expand our capabilities and give clients a competitive edge. Through the latest partnership with Singapore’s largest and most prominent logistics company, SMEs can use Shippit to get direct access to SingPost’s premium, enterprise-grade delivery services at a fraction of the cost.”

Sara Kalle, Senior VP of Group Sales at SingPost, said: “Customers can look forward to a hassle-free shipping experience from the moment they confirm their order on Shippit’s award-winning platform, to collecting their shipments from us at their doors or at a nearby POPStation.”

Australia-founded Shippit officially launched its regional headquarters in Singapore in mid-July. It plans to expand into Malaysia, Philippines, and Indonesia in the near future. The company's client base includes Sephora, UNIQLO, CottonOn, and Harvey Norman.
