Ryderwear, the Australian fitness apparel label, plans to open a third-party logistics (3PL) warehouse in the United States and the United Kingdom, a move that will slash delivery times for international customers.
In the U.S., the company is teaming up with Pitney Bowes in Greenwood, IN. An estimated 80,000 units of Ryderwear products will be housed by mid-August and delivery times in the U.S. are expected to be reduced to two to three days.
In the UK, Ryderwear will team up with Bleckmann, with the warehouse to be located in Swindon, ensuring UK deliveries average just one to two days. An estimated 30,000 units of Ryderwear products will be housed at the warehouse by mid-August.
With a growing international customer base, driven by a partnership with athletes such as Kai Greene and Williams Falade, the demand for Ryderwear products, especially leggings, weightlifting shoes and sports bras, has amplified the need for quicker shipping times.
“The volume of orders coming out of the USA and UK for our best sellers such as our seamless leggings, D-MAK, Kai Green weightlifting shoes, and sports bras, meant that we needed to find a way to reduce delivery times for our customers. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes to ensure the most seamless experience for our customers worldwide, and we believe that these 3PL partnerships will achieve just that,” said David Lukic, CEO and company founder.
