Spainbox

What Spainbox does

Spainbox is a privately held international transport broker and e-commerce fulfillment provider headquartered in Córdoba, Spain, operating under the legal entity Fulfillment Warehouse Spain S.L. Founded in 2011 by CEO Manuel Gallego, the company (also historically known as Mailboxes) targets SMEs, startups, and large companies engaged in cross-border ecommerce, with secondary specialization in Amazon marketplace sellers and food/beverage exporters. Service delivery combines warehousing at its Las Quemadas industrial park facility with a digital layer anchored by the proprietary Shipeu platform, which integrates with WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Shopify, OpenCart, Magento, Amazon, and eBay to consolidate multichannel orders into a single inventory pool and generate shipping labels at carrier-negotiated rates.

The product portfolio spans order fulfillment (picking, packing, kitting, assembly, labeling, subscription-box and crowdfunding fulfillment), international shipping brokerage across UPS, DHL, FedEx, TNT, Correos, and CTT Express, Amazon-specific services (FBA prep, FBM, Seller Fulfilled Prime, brand management, returns), storage, call center/customer reactivation, virtual mailbox addresses, and shipping insurance. Spainbox markets its own performance metrics — 5,000,000+ products shipped in the past year, 300+ clients, and an 80% delivery success rate — and differentiates on same-day fulfillment for orders received before 5:00 PM, transparent pricing, and broad carrier coverage across more than 40 destination countries.

The business model combines transaction-based revenue (shipping label markups, insurance fees), subscription/managed-service revenue (fulfillment contracts priced per request, monthly billing), and professional services (Amazon marketplace management, returns administration, call center operations). Go-to-market is sales-led via the company's Spanish/English website, direct quote requests, ecommerce platform integrations, and content marketing through an active blog covering cross-border trade, FDA prior notice, and marketplace selling strategies. The company is entirely founder-managed with no external investment, M&A, or disclosed funding events, and operates two physical locations (Calle de los Omeyas headquarters and Las Quemadas warehouse) in Córdoba.
