We specialize in boutique-style order fulfillment with a strong focus on food products.

At Zipscale Fulfillment, our mission is to keep our clients as far removed as possible from the day-to-day complexities of logistics. We believe your time is better spent growing your business—not managing inventory or shipping. That’s why we handle every aspect of fulfillment for you, so you can stay focused on scaling. We use ShipHero, a powerful fulfillment platform that gives your team real-time access to inventory levels, expiration dates, and more. You can log in anytime to get full visibility without needing to be involved in the daily logistics grind.

Strong Tech / Integration: They emphasize integrations with eCommerce platforms, real‑time tracking, inventory sync, returns tools. That helps reduce friction when you scale up. Same‑Day Fulfillment: For many eCommerce orders, same‑day or very fast fulfillment is a big plus for customer satisfaction. FBA / Amazon Prep Capability: If you use Amazon or plan to, their experience with FBA prep & replenishment could be useful. Saves you from managing that piece yourself. Flexible Service Range: They do both small and large brands, retail B2B packing/preps, subscription box services, etc. So if your business changes (volume, variety), they may adapt. No Setup Fees + Transparent-ish Pricing Elements: Not all 3PLs waive setup fees. Plus having a cost calculator and a customer portal is helpful. Location: Based in Illinois, near Chicago / O’Hare (for one warehouse). Good central U.S. location for many shipping routes. Dedicated Support & “Boutique” Feel: They stress “family‑owned / from brand owners / entrepreneurs,” direct contact communication. That can mean more responsiveness, more care.
Limited Multiple Location Footprint: They seem to have just a couple of locations (West Chicago, Toronto). If most of your customers are outside those regions or you need distribution centers closer to other geographies (West Coast USA, etc.), shipping costs & times could suffer. If your customers are far from Illinois / Toronto (e.g. the West Coast, or international), shipping might take longer; freight or shipping costs may be higher.
