Amazon Shipping is the conglomerate’s delivery solution that it offers to retailers and sellers both on Amazon as well as through other e-commerce platforms. It has today [24 November] announced that it will be collaborating with parcel delivery management and shipment software provider nShift to make more next-day delivery options accessible to its customers.
Amazon Shipping is now available on nShift’s carrier library, making it easier for businesses to select the Amazon service to deliver their products quickly. The nShift carrier library gives users the opportunity to choose from over 1,000 delivery providers, which the company claims ‘enables businesses to offer the optimal range of delivery options and improve their customer experience’.
Ines van Gennip, Head of Amazon Shipping EU, said: “We’re thrilled to provide parcel delivery solutions to customers of all types and sizes. By collaborating with nShift, we can offer even more businesses fast and reliable delivery speeds through our technology-driven logistics network.”
Vice President of Product and Carrier at nShift, Johan Hellman, noted: “Consumers increasingly expect a next-day delivery service and if e-commerce companies cannot offer one, they risk losing their competitive edge.”
Hellman believes the agreement with Amazon will be mutually beneficial, saying: “By adding Amazon Shipping to our carrier library, we are providing our customers with another highly reliable and fast delivery service, enabling them to give consumers a delivery service that builds loyalty and encourages repeat purchase.”
