Mail Boxes Etc. (MBE) and PrestaShop, both brands belonging to the Fortidia group, have announced an innovative collaboration aimed at transforming the e-commerce ecosystem in Spain. The partnership seeks to simplify and optimize the lives of online businesses, allowing for the centralization of all essential aspects with a single partner. This includes everything from the creation and optimization of the store to the management of shipments and returns.
E-commerce in the country continues to expand, although many companies face significant challenges in efficiently managing their digital operations. In response to these needs, MBE and PrestaShop have decided to join forces, offering a comprehensive, or 360º, solution that combines logistics expertise with advanced e-commerce technology.
One of the highlights of this collaboration is the focus on the creation and optimization of the online store. Companies will be able to access certified PrestaShop agencies that offer customized developments, improve usability, and facilitate integration with payment gateways. This technical support is crucial, especially during periods of high demand. Nievís Torres, in charge at Excelencia Model Kit, highlighted the speed with which the team acted, ensuring that “they were able to get us up and running and saved our campaign.”
The integration of logistics technology is also a key pillar of this proposal. The eShip system allows the online store to connect directly with MBE, automating order and return management. Ana, from the sales department of La Cartuja de Sevilla, praised the system’s ease of use: “It is easy to use for the customer, very intuitive, and it solves problems for us and allows us to focus on other tasks within the sales department.”
Furthermore, the service includes the management of shipments both nationally and internationally, leveraging MBE’s extensive network of transport partners. This provides companies with quick and secure access to global markets, along with advice on customs procedures, documentation, and tariffs. Antonio José Durán, CTO of Spagnolo Moda, acknowledged that they had not considered the potential of international sales until MBE encouraged them to explore this new market.
The goal of this alliance is clear: to offer companies a single partner that meets all their needs, from the platform to logistics and technical support. Carlos Rodriguez, Product Manager at MBE, commented: “With PrestaShop, we add a leading technological partner in e-commerce to our logistics expertise. We want any company to be able to grow online without worrying about technical or logistical complexity.”
Through this collaboration, MBE and PrestaShop establish themselves as a comprehensive partner for small and medium-sized businesses in the e-commerce sector in Spain, fostering an environment where businesses can increase their sales, expand to new markets, and offer an exceptional shopping experience to their customers.
