Petco, a leading pet specialty retailer, struggled with providing affordable and faster shipping options to their customers. Their existing shipping system wasn’t robust enough for their volume and didn’t offer the carrier mix they needed. Additionally, the need to utilize stores as mini distribution centers was apparent in order to decrease shipping costs while increasing options for their customer base.
While looking for a solution, Petco required a seamless e-commerce integration with IBM Sterling, along with query and data exchange with an Oracle instance used by Manhattan. They also were in need of a shipping solution that made carrier compliance a #1 priority in order to handle rate changes, address accuracy and labels.
ProShip, a Manhattan preferred partner, writes back shipment information (cost, tracking number, etc.) to an Oracle database, streamlining Petco’s shipping process.
By increasing their carrier mix, utilizing ProShip’s rate shopping, advanced date shopping functionality, and leveraging 150+ Petco stores with ship-from-store capabilities, Petco has achieved its goals in offering faster, more cost-efficient options to their customers.
