Boutique 3PL Fulfillment for Independent Brands
You built the brand. We pick, pack, and ship the orders. Simpl runs fulfillment for independent fashion, beauty, and lifestyle brands starting at $7 per order, with a named account manager on every account. The $750/month minimum is billed pay-the-difference, so you only pay the gap.
What boutique fulfillment looks like
Boutique fulfillment means someone else handles the warehouse so you can spend your time on product and customers. Your inventory lives in our Austin warehouse. When an order comes in from your store, we pick the items, pack them, and hand them to the carrier the same day. You keep your brand, your packaging, and your customer relationship.
Every order runs at 99.99% accuracy. If we make a mistake, we cover the return shipping and re-ship the order at our cost. Orders received before 12pm CT ship the same day through UPS, USPS, or FedEx, with no carrier markup. Returns come back through a branded portal included with your account.
We handle more than pick and pack: kitting and assembly, Amazon FBA prep, subscription boxes, and custom packaging inserts. If your brand needs it, ask.
Pricing
Starting at $7 per order.
That covers three picks, postage, and packaging. A $750 monthly minimum applies, billed pay-the-difference: if a month of order billing lands under $750, you pay only the gap. No onboarding fee to get set up.
Who this is for

- Founder-led brands that have outgrown packing orders themselves
- First-time 3PL users leaving self-fulfillment or a crowded shared warehouse
- Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, or Squarespace stores
