First, Let Me Reintroduce Myself

November 20, 2024

Hi, we’re Soapbox. We turn supply chain data visibility into a reality:

  1. Connect and integrate all components of your supply chain
  2. Unify your supply chain—from third-party distribution to transportation
  3. Standardize your data to deliver real-time insights
  4. Enable advanced analytics, predictive planning, and AI

The Beginning: Meeting a Critical Need

Five years ago, during COVID-19, we launched Soapbox because we saw a critical gap in the supply chain industry.  

In our early days as a 4PL provider, while working closely with our customers, we experienced firsthand the pain points managing across supply chains – siloed data, disconnected systems, and constant manual adjustments that drained human resources, time, and money. These challenges weren’t just frustrating - they were barriers to growth.

There was a demand for a centralized system of record that wasn’t just another ERP. Operators, whether at third-party logistics (3PLs) or brands, struggled to execute their day-to-day operations, while also providing visibility and data between the two ecosystem parties.

For our customers, it was costly and time-consuming to hire and manage or contract the resources to integrate the data systems, further delaying customer launches and the revenue generation tied to them. With every additional brand and warehouse, companies were forced to expand their tech stack.

Consequently, we continued building the software and middleware layer the industry needed.

The Turning Point

Last year marked a significant step forward. We transitioned from being a 4PL service provider to a comprehensive software solution. This transition wasn’t just a change in our business model but the realization of our original vision for Soapbox.

We took everything we learned from the market and built a platform the industry needed - one that serves as the connective tissue between disparate systems - a functional middleware.  Our platform integrates and coordinates data flows across the supply chain, ensuring every element speaks the same language and syncs for real-time data access.

Our Evolution - Functional Middleware for the Multi-Enterprise Ecosystem

With the Soapbox platform, we provide real-time data, visibility, and integrity so that every part of your supply chain runs cohesively without a hitch.

Today, Soapbox is more than just a software platform. We are the single source for all the operational tools 3PLs and brands need - order, inventory, warehouse, and transportation management systems - all in one. More importantly, if you already have any one of these systems in place, we can directly integrate with it.

We bring operational clarity to where there was once chaos—enabling companies to see, control, and grow their supply chain networks with confidence. We help our customers move from reactive decision-making to proactive.

It’s all tied in a seamless experience - yours.

Our Journey Ahead

This is only the beginning.  As the supply chain industry evolves, we are committed to supporting you - equipping your business with the tools, data, and insights you need to excel and remain ahead of the curve.

Welcome to the new Soapbox, where connectivity, visibility, and real-time data are your advantage in driving your business forward and helping you scale.
