No more inaccurate demand forecasting
Demand planning isn’t an issue with print-on-demand providers
- Industry-leading print-on-demand (POD) companies have plentiful stock of textiles and blanks for custom apparel ready for business owners on demand.
- A POD company can handle the production tech and supplies, and you don’t have to stress over manufacturing.
- You won’t need to hire additional employees, your POD provider handles staffing to ensure timely fulfillment.
Say goodbye to dead stock and overproduction
Protect your brand’s reputation
- Unsold inventory means you’ll have to frequently offer special deals to unload it, and your customers won’t value your products.
- Spending money on high warehousing and shipping fees translates to increased product prices, which can lead to customer loss.
- Keep your employee morale up by not having to let go of employees because you overestimated your demand.
Shorten your lead times
Don’t end up losing almost half of your customers because of long lead times. To ensure customer satisfaction, partner up with an international POD company that will allow you to make fast, low-cost deliveries all over the globe and ensure a more sustainable customer experience: shorter delivery distances mean a smaller environmental impact. With Printful, 81% of your orders will be shipped within the same region as they’re fulfilled.
Reduce your inefficient shipping costs
Shipping with a print-on-demand provider
When using shipping companies like USPS, FedEx, or DHL, very few in-house brands are eligible for a carrier partnership—they can’t reach the minimum shipment quantity or the carrier prices are just too high. However, working with a print-on-demand company allows brands to access the most competitive shipping rates and times that otherwise wouldn’t be available for their level of business.
When choosing a POD company, pay attention to
Shipping regions
Does the POD company ship worldwide?
Shipping rates
Do the shipping costs match the delivery service quality?
Carrier partnerships
Which carriers will deliver your shipments, and are they trustworthy?
Overall shipping experience
Is the shipment tracked? What responsibilities will carriers and your POD company carry?

How POD has improved the way brands operate
''Since 2015, our POD partner has helped us grow by making premium quality products for us. Our customers are constantly impressed with the quality of the print and shirts. I wouldn’t work with the company if they didn’t carry across the premium quality nature of the products I desire my brand to be known for.''

''Before we partnered with a POD provider, we had issues with forecasting demand and scaling production to match it.''
Dean Malka
Swish Embassy
''Long shipping times and bad product quality were the main issues we faced. They caused a lot of negative reviews and resulted in non-existent customer retention. All our customers only bought once and we never saw them again. The reason for choosing our POD provider was to be able to ship products in a timely fashion and deliver a quality product that I could be proud of.''
