Before Working
// with 33 Degrees

What challenges were you facing with fulfillment, shipping, or logistics?

We were struggling to keep pace with the growing volume of e-commerce orders while also meeting Nordstrom’s extremely strict fulfillment requirements. Balancing direct-to-consumer and wholesale operations internally had simply become unsustainable.

What made you decide it was time to find a new 3PL?

As our business scaled, it became clear that managing fulfillment in-house was holding us back. We needed a partner with the infrastructure, technology, and expertise to support both our DTC growth and wholesale expansion, which ultimately led us to seek out 33 Degrees.
