Got Bag Case Study

From Missed Retail Deadlines to Global Supply Chain Confidence

Background: From Delays to Delivery

When this internationally acclaimed sustainable bag company joined forces with TcB, they were coming off a tough run: delayed retail shipments, inconsistent warehouse coordination, and increasing vendor compliance issues were putting stress on their brand momentum in North America. They needed more than a fulfillment center. They needed a strategic logistics partner who could think globally, act locally, and move with the same intention they built into every product.

The Challenge: Global Goods, Domestic Expectations

The complexity was real:
  • Global imports with shifting tariffs and routing variables
  • High-volume DTC alongside compliance-heavy retail programs
  • Boutique-level customer expectations paired with big-box retail demands
  • A return management model requiring both efficiency and brand alignment
To scale in North America, the brand needed a partner who could orchestrate these moving pieces with precision — and move quickly enough to win back retailer confidence.

The Solution: Precision Logistics, Global Perspective

TcB stepped in to not only manage logistics — but to rebuild confidence across the entire delivery chain. Together, we:
  • Took over global import operations — managing ocean freight, customs, and tariffs across multiple regions
  • Built a flexible warehousing system — capable of handling both DTC fulfillment and strict retail routing guides
  • Ensured vendor compliance — working closely with domestic retailers to hit every shipping window, paperwork requirement, and delivery spec
  • Established full return management — blending speed with a branded experience that matched the client’s sustainability and customer service values
  • Scaled fulfillment volume 4x in year one — all while reducing missed deadlines and improving delivery precision across the board
Most importantly, TcB became an extension of their operations — allowing the client to focus on storytelling and brand growth, knowing that every order, shipment, and pallet movement was covered.

Results: Boutique Precision at Big Box Scale

What started as a recovery effort quickly became a strategic advantage:
  • North American retail partners regained confidence through clean execution
  • DTC fulfillment matured with speed, branded packaging, and reverse logistics
  • Tariff management and global imports were centralized and optimized
  • A single operating system brought structure, visibility, and dependability to a formerly fragmented supply chain
From retail expansion to international coordination, TcB became the logistics brain behind their U.S. growth strategy.
