About Kevin Donnelly
I help eCommerce brands turn logistics into a growth lever. After 30+ years of leading global supply chains for Direct to Consumer brands, I recognized the same pattern: high-growth brands get stuck with fragmented fulfillment solutions with high shipping costs, and logistics platforms that don’t scale with demand. That’s why I co-founded Skipit Logistics—a logistics partner for eCommerce teams who want simplicity and savings. We build and run a order orchestration and shipping stack that typically delivers:* Lower parcel costs through smart carrier/rate optimization* Faster, more reliable delivery with the right network design* Clear visibility into orders, inventory, and shipping performance* High level of service: A single point of accountability so your ops team can breatheRecent wins include:* Reduced shipping cost by 32%/$9.35 per order for a fashion luggage brand by utilizing regional carriers* Activated a multi-carrier solution to minimize accessorial fees (at zip code level) reducing surcharge costs by 26%* Implemented a zone skipping program, improving transit time while lowering zones (cost) and damages due to reduced handling
