Get Aramex Suite for simple logistics solution

Aug. 31, 2013 - PRLog -- Shopgo.me & Aramex are happy to announce the launch of the Shopgo.me Aramex Suite module, which will allow e-commerce merchants to plug directly into Aramex’s shipping infrastructure from their custom-built Shopgo.me platform. The hectic procedure of creating a shipment, informing Aramex and sending the merchandise will no longer exist with the launch of this module.   E-Commerce is now one of the fastest-growing industries in the Middle East and North Africa, showing a 45% growth (http://www.visamiddleeast.com/ae/en-ae/aboutvisa/research/ecommerce.shtml) between 2011 and 2012. Yet as e-commerce companies scale throughout the region, they face the difficulties that come with addressing various new markets with a variety of import and export duties. The first thing an e-tailer looks for while expanding to new markets is an easy and feasible way to managing the business from distance by depending on third party logistic companies.  The Shopgo.me Aramex suite module will help e-commerce companies simplify their international logistics by directly integrating with a variety of Aramex services that enable transparent pricing, fast shipping, tracking, and convenient payment solutions.  These include: Rate calculator. Aramex’s rate calculator allows merchants to automatically calculate and reveal shipping rates, taking into account any relevant changes in import duties, taxes or fuel surcharge.  Shipping Service. This feature allows your store to automatically create a shipment so that orders are fulfilled immediately once payment is received. Rather than forcing stores themselves to call Aramex for pickups and deliveries, orders will be placed, shipped and delivered automatically.   Tracking. With Aramex’s tracking service, customers can follow the route of packages and assess the exact delivery time. Once the order is received by Aramex, customers using the Shopgo.me Aramex suite module will receive an email with the tracking number of the shipment.   Cash on Delivery. Around 70%-80% (http://www.wamda.com/2012/05/demystifying-e-commerce-12-q...) of e-commerce transactions in the Middle East and North Africa are placed using cash on delivery (COD). This feature allows Aramex to get notified of the payment method saving stores the trouble of checking the payment method and cash pickup.  The greatest benefit of the Shopgo.me Aramex Suite Module is that it removes the hassle of placing orders individually with a logistics company such as Aramex; all orders placed by customers are simply fulfilled automatically. The service is now free for Shopgo.me customers and is fully integrated with all Shopgo.me platforms, and is also available on Magento Connect and ready for download (http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/catalog/pr...).
