GigaCloud Technology, which debuted on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange last month, confirmed that it has teamed up with a last-mile and white-glove delivery provider to offer services throughout the United States. GigaCloud is a worldwide B2B marketplace platform that focuses on uniting suppliers of oversized and bulky products with retailers.
As a part of the new deal, GigaCloud will combine several carriers into one and provide consumers with affordable prices on its platform. Additionally, it will rely on its logistics vehicles to serve California, New Jersey, New York, and Connecticut.
“We have strategically aligned ourselves with a partner carrier that can flex and adapt with GigaCloud’s needs,” said Aaron Murphy, the company’s vice president of logistics. “We believe this partnership will fill a void felt by many in the big and bulky environment and create value for our client base.”
