Why Auckland Brands Choose Matrix

Four Reasons Auckland Brands Fulfill US Orders With Matrix

  1. 1

    Ship Like a US Brand

FAQ

US Fulfillment Questions From Auckland Brands

Still unsure? Call (310) 415-7759 and talk to the team that packs your orders.

How can an Auckland brand sell in the USA without its own US warehouse?

Most Auckland Shopify brands start by shipping US orders from home, but every parcel crosses customs, pays international postage and takes longer to arrive. With Matrix, you send inventory to our Los Angeles warehouse in bulk, and US orders ship domestically the same day when they're placed by 2 PM Pacific.

Why use a Los Angeles warehouse for US fulfillment?

Freight from New Zealand crosses the Pacific and lands at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, the largest port complex in the US and close to our warehouse. An East Coast warehouse adds a cross-country leg before your stock is even on the shelf.

Does the time difference between Auckland and Los Angeles cause problems?

Auckland is 19 to 21 hours ahead of Los Angeles depending on daylight saving, so US orders are picked and packed while your team sleeps. Your stock and orders are visible in ShipHero WMS around the clock.

Can you fulfill US orders from my existing Shopify store?

Yes. We connect your Shopify store through ShipHero WMS, so US orders route to our Los Angeles warehouse automatically while you keep selling in New Zealand.

Is Matrix FDA registered?

Yes. Matrix is an FDA-registered facility, which matters for New Zealand cosmetics, skincare, supplement and snack brands storing products in the US.

What does US fulfillment cost?

Pick and pack starts at $1.50 per order plus $0.35 per additional item, dropping as low as $0.50 per order at volume. Bin storage is $0.25 per day, there are no setup or platform fees, and everything is quoted in US dollars.

How fast can we start shipping US orders?

We onboard brands within 24 to 48 hours. Your store is connected right away, and same-day shipping starts as soon as your inventory arrives in Los Angeles and is counted.

Do you work with other international brands?

Yes. We work with brands from Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and Europe that want a US base for their DTC, TikTok Shop and wholesale orders.
