Ladingo's Uber-ized container sharing shipping solution makes it possible to ship anything, anywhere in the world

Ladingo, the pioneer in large and bulk item shipping solutions, is announcing the global launch of its automated and digitized shipping platform, taking on the challenges facing online shoppers, online sellers, and ocean freight forwarders in the e-commerce industry. Ladingo has successfully raised $1.6 million in an initial funding round led by ZIM, the global container shipping corporation.

In today’s globalized, fast-paced world, where e-commerce is king, the importance of having variety and affordability for online shoppers is increasingly critical. Shoppers want more products which they either can’t buy from their local sellers or prefer to purchase from the comfort of their homes, at competitive rates. Currently, international e-commerce shipping is limited by air freight where restrictions exist based on product size. The larger items, such as furniture, home appliances, or fitness equipment, are simply too costly to ship by air, and thus are currently unavailable for online shoppers to purchase overseas. At the end of the day, that lovely couch from Italy you have been eyeing online, really is not within your reach.

Ladingo’s out-of-the-box solution allows sellers to enter a global market, and ship anything via an easy, efficient and streamlined process. The company’s automated system uses machine learning and optimization algorithms to expand the seller’s reach to new potential customers overseas. In addition, Ladingo’s platform helps reduce global product inventory, solves cross-border regulation hassles, and dramatically cuts costs with:

  • Automated customs: End-to-end customs brokerage for shipments of all sizes – all regulation, taxation, and documentation are automated, hassle-free.
  • “Uber-ized” shipping: Container-sharing of large and bulk items, for multiple shoppers from multiple sellers, maximizes container space while minimizing costs per item shipped.
  • Sky’s the limit: Whether its gym equipment, a sofa or a barbecue, no item is too big to ship.

Ladingo’s solution ultimately translates into a lower cost of shipping bringing sellers to global shoppers at the click of a button.
