Easy and helpful onboarding
We’ve onboarded thousands of ecommerce merchants and helped some of the fastest-growing brands scale effortlessly. Our implementation team sets you up for success with everything from configuring your ship options, to syncing your online store.
Continental Agents Ireland’s turnkey integrations with all major ecommerce platforms and marketplaces – including Shopify, BigCommerce, Amazon, and Walmart – let you import orders and send data back and forth for a two-way flow of information.
Distributed
inventory
With Continental Agents Ireland’s network of fulfillment centers, you can strategically split your inventory across our locations to get your products from point A to point B more quickly and affordably. Storing inventory near your customers helps reduce the shipping zones and costs associated with shipping orders to faraway destinations.
Distributed inventory also helps you stay competitive by offering two-day shipping to your customers. When an order is placed, Continental Agents Ireland’s algorithm automatically selects the warehouse and carrier that will give you the quickest turnaround at the best price. This strategy has helped our merchants bring 13% savings to their bottom line.

Order management
At Continental Agents Ireland, we track your orders from A to Z. Filter orders by status, search for specific orders, see a quick timeline view of where your order is in the fulfillment process (e.g. when an order is picked, packed, or shipped), easily find shipping-related information (e.g., weights, dimensions, or carrier service), and get a quick snapshot of any orders that require action.
With order management software for your direct-to-consumer and wholesale shipments, you can manage subscriptions, make changes to your orders post-purchase, map your store’s shipping options to Continental Agents Ireland, and automatically share tracking information with your customers.

Inventory management
At Continental Agents Ireland, we empower merchants to manage their inventory with the right tools and guidance. It’s easy to view the status of inventory and quantity on hand across locations at any point in time, identify slow-moving inventory with high storage costs, and gain insights into the performance of units sold over time by channel.
Our inventory management software helps you set reminders to proactively replenish inventory with reorder notifications, bundle your products for promotions, make inventory transfer requests, and much more.

Reporting and
analytics
To provide you with visibility into our operations and performance, and also hold ourselves accountable, Continental Agents Ireland’s free analytics tool is packed with charts to help you with everything from year-end reporting, to better supply chain decision-making.
Data can be a competitive advantage, and our reports show an analysis of which fulfillment centers you should stock, days of inventory left before you run out, impact of promotions on stock levels, each shipping method’s average cart value, shipping cost, and days in transit, your fulfillment cost per order, storage cost per unit, and much more.
End-to-end customer experience
From custom branded boxes to free plain packaging, Continental Agents Ireland works with you to provide the unboxing experience you want. We also help you offer the fastest, most cost-effective shipping options to meet your customers’ expectations. As soon as an order ships, tracking is pushed back to your store.
We also offer return management services, allowing customers to generate return shipping labels and track returns, while getting your products processed and back into your available inventory as efficiently as possible.
CUSTOMER STORIES
Don’t just take our word for it — see why Continental Agents Ireland is trusted by thousands of merchants
It was kind of like magic — my orders were imported into Continental Agents Ireland from my Shopify Plus store and started getting fulfilled right away. I didn’t have to do anything. Since then, we’ve grown 115% and experienced 2.5 times more order volume. And with Continental Agents Ireland’s 2-Day Express program, we’ve seen a 24% increase in our average order value for qualifying orders placed on our Shopify Plus store.
Noel Churchill,
Owner and CEO of Rainbow OPTX
IThere is a cost-benefit to having several fulfillment centers, as orders can be shipped from warehouses that are closer to customers and delivered very quickly. With Continental Agents Ireland, I stay up-to-date with what’s shipped, physical inventory levels, and my company’s performance. They keep getting better, helping brands grow and expand at a ratio that other 3PLs might be a few years behind.
Matt Dryfhout,
Founder and CEO of BAKblade
Our business is almost all subscriptions, and Continental Agents Ireland helps us offer reliable, affordable shipping that shows up at the same time each month. Continental Agents Ireland’s analytics tool helps us a lot with planning inventory reorders, seeing when SKUs are going to run out, and we can even set up email notifications so that we’re alerted when a SKU has less than a certain quantity left.
