LibDib, the web-based wholesale alcohol distributor, unveiled LibShip, a new flat rate shipping program that offers competitive pricing and enhanced features to save LibDib Makers time and money. LibShip utilizes FedEx to offer simplified pricing, automated tracking and overall ease of use.
LibDib has been beta testing the new program with a select group of Makers for the past 60 days. LibShip is now available to all LibDib Maker customers in all LibDib markets.
Via the LibDib platform, Makers can leverage LibShip for shipping to warehouses and customers. The LibShip pricing structure cuts shipping costs significantly, from as high as $30 for a 6-bottle case to just $15 for up to 1,000 miles.
Pricing is based on weight and distance, as well as LibDib’s overall shipping volume, so as more packages are shipped through LibShip, the more LibDib Makers will continue to save.
To participate, LibDib Makers are required to complete the FedEx Alcohol Shipper’s Agreement. Once a Maker receives an order, LibShip automatically creates a prepaid label that is attached to packages and product is then shipped to either the Reseller directly, or to a warehouse (depending on the at-rest laws in the receiving state).
Automated tracking and notification options allow the Maker and Reseller to easily track all shipments, anytime. LibDib plans to expand the program to include discounts for large shipments, such as pallets, as well as bulk discounts on shipping materials.
