What ePost Global does

ePost Global is a private, US-based cross-border parcel and mail orchestration company headquartered in Cypress, California, operating a multi-carrier platform that connects shippers to more than 100 carrier partners across 200+ countries. The company processed 23.3 million items in 2025 representing $421.3 million in shipping value, routing volume through four US gateway facilities and capital-intensive block-space agreements that give it aggregated pricing power no individual mid-market shipper could obtain directly. Its customers span enterprise publishers such as Zazzle (a 16-year relationship), The Golfer's Journal, MovieMars, AAEP, and Rinaldi Printing, alongside a growing base of direct-to-consumer brands in the $10M-$75M revenue range.\n\nThe company monetizes by capturing a spread between carrier costs and shipper pricing on international parcel volume, supplemented by value-added services including customs documentation, returns orchestration through its ShipWise integration, and the Shipping Intelligence analytics platform that productizes proprietary performance data. Recent product launches — Shadow Loss for disruption resilience and eDGE for domestic US/Canada shipping — extend the orchestration model horizontally beyond international parcel, while the December 2025 partnership with GLS Group adds Australia and broader European lane coverage.\n\nePost positions itself as the largest privately held US-based international shipping partner outside the three global integrators (FedEx, UPS, DHL), and its value proposition centers on carrier diversification (no single carrier exceeding 17.3% of volume), operational resilience during trade disruptions, and a single integration layer that replaces direct shipper relationships with multiple carriers. The business model is asset-light on the shipper side but asset-heavy in carrier contracts and gateway infrastructure, and the company is privately held with no public funding disclosures in the available data.
