Why Helsinki Brands Choose Matrix

Four Reasons Helsinki Brands Fulfill US Orders With Matrix

  1. 1

    Ship Like a US Brand

    US customers get domestic delivery speed and tracking instead of an international parcel from Finland.

  2. 2

    Skip Customs on Every Order

    The US suspended duty-free de minimis entry for low-value parcels in 2025. Import in bulk, then ship each order domestically.

  3. 3

    FDA-Registered Warehouse

    Our Los Angeles facility is FDA registered and ready for cosmetics, supplement and food brands.

  4. 4

    Cutoff at Midnight Helsinki Time

    Helsinki is usually 10 hours ahead of LA, so the 2 PM Pacific cutoff lands at midnight your time and the whole US business day ships.

FAQ

US Fulfillment Questions From Helsinki Brands

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

How can a Helsinki brand sell in the USA without its own US warehouse?

Most Helsinki 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?

If your products are made in Asia, they can ship from the factory to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach without routing through Europe first. LA also puts you close to California, one of the biggest DTC markets in the US.

What is the time difference between Helsinki and Los Angeles?

Usually 10 hours: Helsinki is ahead. For two to three weeks in March and about one week from late October to early November, when Europe and the US change clocks on different dates, the gap shrinks to 9 hours. Our same-day cutoff is 2 PM Pacific on weekdays, midnight Helsinki time on most days, and ShipHero shows your US stock and orders at any hour.

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 Finland.

Is Matrix FDA registered?

Yes. Matrix is an FDA-registered facility, which matters for Finnish 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 do Helsinki brands get inventory to Los Angeles?

Most send ocean or air freight from Finland, or ship straight from a manufacturer in Asia to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. We count every unit when it arrives.

Can Helsinki wellness brands ship supplements to US customers from Los Angeles?

Yes. Matrix is an FDA-registered facility that tracks lots and expiration dates with FEFO picking, and weekday orders placed by 2 PM Pacific ship the same day.
