Adam Ireland, VP and GM of eBay US, highlights in TechCrunch:
eBay’s Journey to Global Reach
Since its inception in 1995, eBay Inc. (NASDAQ: EBAY) has continuously embraced innovation, achieving significant global reach and scale in over 190 markets. Key figures from their Q4 2022 performance include:
- 1.7 billion live listings
- 134 million active buyers worldwide
- $18.2 billion in GMV
- $2.5 billion in revenue
- 51% revenue from international operations
Recognizing the importance of global reach, eBay launched its Global Shipping Program (GSP) in August 2012, facilitated by Pitney Bowes Ltd. However, in April 2018, an executive order mandating a review of USPS operations posed a risk to international shipping rates, necessitating greater flexibility and agility.
The Easyship Solution
Easyship's performance during the Covid-19 pandemic, with its agile and extensive courier network, impressed eBay. Consequently, Easyship won a full RFP process to enhance and streamline US exports for eBay sellers.
In less than eight months, Easyship identified eBay's specific needs and launched a custom solution swiftly. The resulting eBay International Standard Delivery (eISD) program offers sellers a low-cost solution for US exports to 200+ countries. Easyship’s comprehensive support includes:
