ShipEngine’s API improves shipping efficiency
and increases online orders by 30%
ShipEngine, the world’s leading shipping API, today announces
that it has been selected by Trotters Childrenswear, the
independent children’s clothing retailer, to lead its delivery
operations across the UK. Trotters Childrenswear has implemented
ShipEngine’s API solution to automate shipping, increase business
efficiency and ultimately provide its customers with an exceptional
ecommerce experience.
Having initially used ShipEngine’s more small and medium focused
sister brand, ShipStation, for shipping in the UK, as Trotters
Childrenswear scaled and grew its ecommerce businesses, it required
a more complex automated solution that could be directly built into
its technology stack. ShipEngine’s API simplifies shipping for
Trotters Childrenswear and removes integration headaches and costs,
providing easy access to over 100 local and global carriers.
Leveraging ShipEngine’s powerful API, Trotters Childrenswear is
able to process 30% more orders per day without any additional
overheads, reduce administration associated with processing online
orders and increase efficiency.
David Williams, FC Manager at Trotters Childrenswear:
“As our business continues to rapidly scale, we need to have the
right technology and partner in place to help support our growth
now and in the future. ShipEngine’s API scalable solution provides
us with everything we need and more. By implementing ShipEngine’s
API, we’ve improved our shipping and supply chain infrastructure,
allowing us to process a greater volume of orders without
compromising on the ecommerce experience. We’ve also futureproofed
our operations as we’re able to easily adapt and adjust ShipEngine
to meet our business needs moving forward.”
Chris Karp, Chief Customer Officer at Auctane, ShipEngine and
ShipStation’s parent company:
“We’re proud to support Trotters Childrenswear in the next stage
of their growth, as they graduate from our small and medium
business focused ShipStation solution, to our more complex and
powerful ShipEngine API to better serve the needs of their
expanding customer base. Our ShipEngine API enables Trotters
Childrenswear to automate its shipping operations and removes the
costly headaches associated with manual process and integrations.
This not only improves their overall efficiency but provides their
customers with a delivery experience that exceeds expectations and
helps to drive loyalty.”

About Trotters Childrenswear:
Founded by Sophie Mirman and husband Richard Ross, the first
Trotters store opened its doors in London, in October 1990 at 34
Kings Road in Chelsea. Sophie realised there was a gap in the
market when it came to meeting children-and their parents’-needs.
The pair aimed to create a space where high quality products could
be found, amidst a convivial and familiar atmosphere. From
specialised shoe fittings, aboard the famous in store Trotters
Plane or Train, to carefully crafted clothes, and a dedicated
hairdressing section with a giant fish tank to keep the little ones
entertained, Trotters has met those goals, and become the preferred
one-stop shop for families.
We are still the same family-owned and run business as a quarter
of a century ago, committed to providing excellent customer service
and a fun shopping experience for all generations. We have 5 stores
in London, in addition to our online store and concessions at
Harrods and Liberty Department stores. Visit:
