PrestaShop and Shipwire, a Dynamic Partnership for Overseas Expansion

By Julie Griffin, Contributing Writer

Many of the potential barriers that stifle the development of companies from expanding into overseas markets are unorganized shipping and storage strategies. PrestaShop is a reputable company that makes the success of businesses, their business. PrestaShop realized that Shipwire, a company that specializes in streamlining shipping and storage operations, could offer services to their clients that will assist PrestaShop’s merchants skyrocket in overseas markets.


The marriage between the two companies is an idyllic affair for what each individual company brought to the table. Shipwire brought their cloud-based services that serve logistical purposes, their innovative shipping software, and their expertise in outsourcing order procedures that can be quite a hassle. PrestaShop brought the clients. PrestaShop serves a growing community with an impressive current population of 300,000 members, which is what would be expected of the 2010 and 2011 winner of best Open-source Business Applications.

Nate Gilmore, Shipwire's vice president of Business Development, tells the press, “This new PrestaShop integration with Shipwire allows PrestaShop's customers to grow their business globally by automating their order flow and outsourcing the hassles of shipping and logistics. Shipwire gives them the benefit of e-commerce order fulfillment by providing a global warehouse network which plugs right into their online store."

PrestaShop’s clients no longer have to deal with the tedious hassles associated with shipping and storage because those tasks are now outsourced to one of Shipwire’s many warehouses in the U.S., Canada, Europe or Asia. Tracking inventory and monitoring order-fulfillment is easier than ever due to the software solutions that give clients real-time reports. Now that clients are freed from this entire minutia, they will save time and money, and most importantly, have the means to focus on developing their products.
