The 4 Pillars of 3P4L

Simply your merch operations

Production

Great brand. Bad supply chain?
We make the product so you can focus on the brand.

Packaging

Your product deserves better than a poly bag.
Retail,ready kitting, custom packaging, brand experiences that survive the unboxing

Parcel

Boxes shouldn't be your bottleneck.
Prefer order fulfillment to end consumers, or pallets to distribution centers. We do both.

Logistics

You shouldn't have to call four vendors for one answer.
One dashboard. Every leg. Every SKU. Every status.

Print on Demand vs 3P4L

which path is right for you?

Most brands start with Print on Demand, then move their proven winners to 3P4L as volume grows. Here is how to choose.

3P4L  ·  Managed Branded Commerce

We build the store. We ship the orders.

You bring the brand. We handle everything from store conception to the doorstep, and every order in between.

How it works
STEP 01
Conceive
We shape the store strategy, design, and product mix around your brand.
STEP 02
Build
A custom Shopify store you own, on your domain. Not a template on someone else's platform.
STEP 03
Launch
Your store goes live and starts capturing demand, with us running the day to day.
STEP 04
Fulfill
Every order runs through 3P4L: Production, Packaging, Parcel, Logistics. Delivered to the doorstep.
And it keeps going. Order and inventory data flows back to inform the next production run. That is the loop in Merchloop.
Why it works
You own the asset
A real Shopify store on your own domain, not a subdomain you rent. The channel is yours to keep.
One partner, not five
No stitching together a web agency, a 3PL, and a decorator. Conception to fulfillment under one roof.
A proven playbook
We have built and managed branded storefronts from concept to fulfillment. You get a tested process, not an experiment.
Book a build consultation
From store conception to your customer's doorstep, one partner.

Customer Testimonials

Marketing Manager's Saving Grace

In the past, we struggled to meet minimums when working with suppliers and were only able to offer our employees a limited clothing portal twice a year due to the limitations out there. With Merchloop's business model, we’ve avoided all those issues!
