Shipping services for small business that compete at every volume
Most small businesses ship at retail rates. One or two carriers. No regional access. No leverage. AMZ Prep changes that by pooling volume across hundreds of brands and extending enterprise carrier infrastructure to businesses at every stage.
Your carrier network, from day one
Access 20+ regional and national carriers including UPS, FedEx, USPS, Canada Post, DHL eCommerce, UniUni, Veho, SpeedX, OnTrac, Amazon Shipping, and Dragonfly. Carrier selection happens automatically at label creation based on destination, cost, and delivery speed.
Rates you could not negotiate alone
Shipping rates for small business accounts default to retail pricing. Prep Parcel aggregates volume across the full AMZ network and passes pre-negotiated rates directly to you. The 437 brand cut total shipping costs by 30% after switching – same carriers, same routes, different rate structure.
One platform for every channel
FBA prep, FBM same-day fulfillment, DTC orders, B2B retail, and omnichannel, all from one inventory position. Orders route automatically. No duplicate stock, no channel conflicts, no separate vendor relationships.
Shipping infrastructure built on real volume, not resold labels
When you ship through AMZ Prep, your parcels move through a network built on collective volume. Regional carriers that decline individual accounts become available. National carrier rates improve. Live rate comparison at label creation means every shipment takes the most cost-effective route for that specific destination.
That is how the 437 brand reduced shipping costs by 30%. That is how New Primal scaled DTC and Amazon fulfillment from one inventory pool without managing separate carrier accounts.
