Case Study: Sharkbanz achieves faster global shipments and lower logistics costs with Flexport Flow Direct

Shark Deterrent Technology Leader Sharkbanz Streamlines Global Shipments with Flexport’s Flow Direct

Sharkbanz, a shark-deterrent technology company co-founded in 2014, was struggling to scale its e-commerce shipments across the U.S. and overseas. As its global business grew, the brand faced inefficient LCL freight processes, inconsistent pallet rules, delays, and higher logistics costs. It turned to Flexport’s Flow Direct to help solve these supply chain challenges.

Flexport implemented Flow Direct, an end-to-end global shipping solution with shipment visibility and 3PL coordination, helping Sharkbanz eliminate deconsolidation inefficiencies and streamline freight from Asia to the U.S. The result was nearly half the transit time of industry standards, inventory arriving more than two weeks earlier than traditional timelines, over $15,000 in savings, and an estimated $70,000 in additional sales thanks to better in-stock availability.
