Hi all,

I’ve been in the 3PL eCommerce space for several years, primarily working with mid-size to enterprise brands.

Lately I’ve been approached by more early-stage founders looking for their first 3PL. A lot of them have great products and strong vision, but I’ve realized I don’t have a great list of startup-friendly partners I can confidently refer them to.

For those who have gone through this stage, I’ve heard mixed feedback on providers like ShipBob and similar platforms, with some founders feeling like their brand didn’t get the attention it needed early on.

Would love to hear:

• Who did you use when you were starting out?
• Any boutique or founder-friendly 3PLs you’d recommend?
• Anyone to avoid?

Appreciate any insight here. Trying to build a better resource for founders as they get off the ground and prepare to scale.

Thanks in advance.
