A Flexport Case Study
Bombas, the New York City-based premium basics brand known for its “one purchased equals one donated” mission, was struggling to scale its supply chain as demand grew for its socks, underwear, and t-shirts. In 2017, Bombas turned to Flexport for a logistics partner and digital platform to replace manual spreadsheets, improve shipment visibility, and support its expanding e-commerce, wholesale, and donation operations.
Flexport implemented a more scalable shipping strategy for Bombas, combining real-time tracking, reporting tools, and strategic logistics consulting. Together, they reduced ocean transit time from 28 days to 18 days, created a faster “Direct to Shelter” delivery model, and helped Bombas keep donation goods moving during COVID-19; from 2017 to 2021, Bombas increased shipments with Flexport by 605% and grew donated goods by 10x.
