About - The "WHY"
THE PROBLEM - High Costs, No Solutions
The cost of living in New Zealand remains high, and consumers shop around for the best deals. Logistics costs are a significant part of any product's price—and small importers and exporters get hit the hardest.
Unlike big companies, small businesses don't have dedicated logistics teams. Meanwhile, logistics companies with excess warehouse space, often don't invest in marketing to smaller companies.
Shipping companies handle imports and exports and sometimes don't have (or have enough) warehouse space for smaller businesses. Meaning they either have to find their own warehouse space options or they pay high prices for storage.
OUR SOLUTION - The Matching Marketplace
The $2 Shelf connects companies with excess warehouse space to small importers and exporters who need affordable storage. We do the matching so you don't have to.
You can use your own third-party transport to move goods to and from storage, or take advantage of the warehouse company's services—whatever works best for you.
The result? Warehouse operators monetise unused space with zero sales effort, and you get storage at rates that actually make sense for your business.
