Case Study: Cakeworthy cuts shipping costs in half with GoBolt

Cakeworthy cuts shipping costs from 22% to 10% with GoBolt

Cakeworthy, a Canadian fandom apparel brand, faced significant challenges with its in-house fulfillment operations. High shipping costs, which consumed 22% of total sales, were cutting into profits. The company also struggled with the complexity of cross-border shipping to its large U.S. customer base, poor order accuracy, and the inefficiency of managing multiple vendors. To address these issues, Cakeworthy partnered with logistics vendor GoBolt for its fulfillment and last-mile delivery services.

GoBolt implemented a streamlined solution for Cakeworthy, establishing strategic U.S. fulfillment operations to serve the majority of its customers domestically and consolidating all fulfillment under one platform. This partnership resulted in dramatic improvements. Most notably, GoBolt helped Cakeworthy cut its shipping costs from 22% down to 10% of sales, more than halving this expense. The company also achieved 99% same-day order processing with 1-2 day delivery across North America and dramatically improved order accuracy.
