Case Study: Largest Footwear Manufacturer achieves scalable D2C growth with Sorted

Footwear brand steps up online offering for d2c model

Largest Footwear Manufacturer, one of the UK’s biggest footwear makers, was looking to transform from a catalogue-led D2C business into a digitally driven online retailer. As digital sales grew and seasonal demand fluctuated, the company needed a way to simplify complex carrier integrations, improve operational flexibility, and gain better visibility into delivery performance. Sorted helped provide this capability through its Ship product.

Using Sorted’s Ship solution, Largest Footwear Manufacturer gained access to multiple carriers through a single integration, making it easier to switch services, add new delivery routes, and monitor performance from one dashboard. The result was a 54% increase in shipment volume in Q1 2021 versus Q1 2020, smoother onboarding and carrier integration, and improved reporting to support future expansion into Europe and the US.
