Importing, Innovation, and AdventureAfter 25 years of sourcing and importing—maneuvering through vendors, customers, and their endless attempts to cut me out to work directly—I started our blind shipping business. I did this more out of necessity and with much stubbornness. Living and importing from Seoul, Sri Lanka, India, the Philippines, and China, I’ve eaten more rice and curry than I’d care to admit and picked up a thing or two about persistence—and the art of keeping suppliers and customers apart.We launched ShipCustomerDirect.com from a tiny office in Hong Kong, quickly becoming the talk (and nuisance) of the building with our daily mountain of packages clogging hallways and loading docks. My importer friends were experiencing the same issues, and we combined our shipments to get more substantial volume rebates from the major carriers. After 18 months, we headed to Shenzhen, setting up shop on 800 square feet—again stirring up the locals as boxes piled up and shipped out. Today, we operate in our 3,500-square-foot depot, moving shipments in and out faster than ever (unless it’s peak season—the neighbors still have a few words for us).ShipCustomerDirect.com offers blind shipping services that deliver orders directly to customers or end-users without revealing supplier information. This safeguards your relationships and saves 50-60% on your shipping costs. Our system streamlines logistics, eliminates the need for local handling, and speeds up delivery times—crucial advantages for modern e-commerce. We keep suppliers and customers apart and hidden from each other. We delivery with freight and duty fully prepaid.Let’s connect to explore how we can help each other navigate the ever-evolving world of importing and logistics.
