Nostr Web Client

That's impressive, but we're not dealing with electronics.

Most products made, and sold here on Nostr, are sensitive to shipping conditions. Temperature, moisture, etc. Some have expiration dates. It's a different animal.

Yes, it's also B2C not B2B.

We didn't do the actual shipping, that was companies that owned planes or ships.

As a supplier, you'd be responsible for packaging your product in a suitable manner and specifying shipping conditions to the forwarding agent.

What we did was make certain that shipping process happened as it should, on time, with no admin issues and arrived where it was supposed to and was released to the local agent without issue.

I'm just pondering things at this stage, but I have some experience of this and I know companies and people that are in the industry and I am bored right now, so I may be interested in starting a company 😂

I'm all ears brother. I already have a market in the EU that wants our products, but it's the high shipping cost, and "import fees" that is precluding that.

If you can decrease the shipping, and find a work around for the import fees, I'm definitely interested in talking.

Yeh, you definitely want to consolidate shipping, at least with other plebs on here that are supplying other products.

i.e. you send a consolidated shipment to a country, then a local agent takes on the local distribution routing.

If you reach scale, you can hire parts or whole shipping containers to fill.

That's how Temu or Aliexpress do it, but that's in the future 😂

Also, you'd be surprised how many perishable items the factory sneaked into shipments for regional staff around the world to enjoy 😂
