Bonded fulfillment

Benefits

Bonded fulfillment benefits

A bonded fulfillment center is a secure facility authorized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) that allows you to store imported goods duty-free until they’re ready to enter the market. This means you don’t pay duties or taxes upfront, giving you maximum flexibility and control over your inventory and cash flow.

Cut costs

Defer customs duties and taxes until your goods are sold, freeing up your capital to reinvest in important areas of your business.

Boost cash flow

Use your duty savings to invest in marketing, expansion, and other growth-driving activities.

Simplify your operations

Save time and reduce administrative burdens with streamlined logistics and expert customs compliance support.

Ship faster, save more

Faster delivery, optimized pricing, and a simplified supply chain give you the power to outpace your competition.

What our customers are saying

5 out of 5 stars

As a large CPG that has been through several Fulfillment partners in the last few years, we can finally say that we found a home.

Jason Welsh

Their customer service teams are telepathic, telekinetic, and pyrokinetic. They know my issue before I tell them, are already solving them, and are fired up to help.

Noah Gould

We came for ShipMonk’s pricing but stayed for their great customer service. Since we started working with ShipMonk we have grown more than 4x.

We were OOS on inventory with a large number of backorders. ShipMonk tripled their daily throughput and resolved everything within 24 hours. Amazing!
