Case Study: Duolingo achieves 70% faster global shipping with BAMKO

Duolingo cuts shipping times by 70% with BAMKO

Duolingo faced severe international logistics hurdles with its e-commerce store, including a 93% cart abandonment rate in Europe due to high shipping costs and multi-week delivery times from its US-based operations. Their previous vendor had geographical limitations that blocked access to key markets. They enlisted BAMKO to build a localized, high-speed global fulfillment network to solve these challenges.

BAMKO implemented a solution by launching three regional webstores and fulfillment hubs in North America & LATAM, Europe, and APAC. This localized approach replaced long-distance international shipping, which cut European delivery times by over 70% (from 2-3 weeks down to 3-7 days) and eliminated the cost barriers that caused cart abandonment. BAMKO also took over direct manufacturing of key products and introduced custom kitting to create a premium unboxing experience, leading to over 23,000 orders processed on the US storefront alone and a surge in European conversion rates.
