Brookfield, Wis., August 15, 2019 - ProShip, Inc., the most trusted global provider of automated multi-carrier shipping software, today announced that GNC, a global health and wellness brand, has chosen ProShip as its multi-carrier shipping software. The solution is scheduled to be implemented in three US-based distribution centers with the goal of adding ship-from-store functionality in 400+ GNC retail locations in the future.
GNC will seamlessly integrate ProShip Multi-Carrier Shipping Software into its enterprise technology stack and utilize ProShip's innovative shipping capabilities such as Advanced Date Shopping (an advanced form of rate shopping), international shipping and compliant labeling. This solution will allow the retailer to ship more efficiently, save on shipping costs and ultimately exceed customer expectations.
