On track for 300% revenue growth in 2026 and now serving its third Shark Tank-featured brand, ShipSquared is scaling fast across its Dallas and Shenzhen operations, with active investment in robotics and AI-driven fulfillment to meet surging demand from high-growth and enterprise DTC brands.

United States, 17th Jun 2026 — ShipSquared, a Dallas-based fulfillment and supply chain partner for ecommerce brands, today announced a period of rapid growth that has moved the company from emerging challenger to one of the most closely watched fulfillment operators serving founder-led consumer brands.

The company is on pace for 300% year-over-year revenue growth in 2026, a trajectory driven by demand from DTC companies that have outgrown basic pick, pack, and ship providers and need a partner built to scale with them.

That momentum was underscored by the company’s newest partnership with a consumer brand featured on Shark Tank, now the third Shark Tank-featured brand to join ShipSquared’s roster. The milestone marks another major step in the company’s move upmarket and its growing ability to support larger, established brands. It also reflects a clear pattern in ShipSquared’s growth: founder-led and nationally recognized consumer brands choosing the company specifically because its leadership has lived the operational challenges of scaling a product from launch to national distribution.

“We built ShipSquared for the brands we used to be,” said Zak Jones, founder and CEO of ShipSquared. “I spent years manufacturing my own product in Shenzhen and selling it on Shark Tank, so I know exactly where fulfillment breaks a growing brand. Founders are coming to us because we have lived their problem, and because we can move a product from a factory floor in China to a customer’s doorstep without the handoffs falling apart along the way.”

ShipSquared operates across two continents, pairing fulfillment and freight operations in the Dallas-Fort Worth area with sourcing and supply chain infrastructure in Shenzhen, China. That footprint lets the company support brands through the full lifecycle of a product, from sourcing and manufacturing oversight to FBA prep, freight forwarding, international fulfillment, and direct-to-consumer shipping.

Investing in the next generation of fulfillment

A central part of ShipSquared’s growth strategy is its investment in automation and robotics, an initiative led by co-founder and COO Brent Raymond. The company is integrating robotics and AI-assisted workflows into its operations with the goal of improving accuracy, throughput, and inventory visibility as order volumes climb.

“The next decade of fulfillment will be won by companies that operate like technology businesses, not warehouses,” said Steven Zuckerman, Senior Advisor to ShipSquared. “ShipSquared is building that way from the start, layering robotics, automation, and data directly into operations so that brands get a level of accuracy and speed that manual fulfillment simply cannot match. That is what separates an intelligent operating partner from a building full of shelves.”

The company sees automation not as a replacement for service, but as the foundation that makes hands-on partnership possible at scale, freeing its team to focus on the exceptions, the relationships, and the growth planning that brands actually need from a supply chain partner.

“Growth is the easy part to celebrate, but what I care about is what sits behind it,” Jones said. “Every brand we add is a founder trusting us with their customer relationship. Our job is to protect that, scale it, and hand them a supply chain that becomes an advantage instead of a ceiling on how fast they can grow.”

As ecommerce continues to consolidate around operators that can combine technology with genuine service, ShipSquared believes its growth signals a broader shift in what brands expect from a fulfillment partner.

“Great marketing can drive the first sale,” Jones said. “Fulfillment is what decides whether that customer ever comes back. We want to be the reason they do.”

Veteran fund and portfolio manager opens a select advisory practice focused on disciplined, long-term wealth strategy for clients across the United States and Canada

WASHINGTON, United States — June 23, 2026 — Austin Glenn Smith, Ph.D., a senior fund and portfolio manager with more than 30 years of institutional experience, has launched a private financial consulting practice serving a limited number of individuals and families across the United States and Canada. The move marks his transition from full-time fund management to one-on-one advisory work centered on portfolio strategy, retirement and wealth planning, and disciplined, long-term investing.

For three decades, Smith managed institutional portfolios through multiple market cycles, holding senior roles with the Vanguard Management Group and Expert Edge Investments. His new practice brings that institutional rigor to private clients who want experienced, independent guidance rather than off-the-shelf products.

“After thirty years of managing capital for institutions, I wanted to bring that same discipline to a smaller number of people I can serve directly,” said Smith. “Consulting is not a step back; it is a more deliberate way to add value.”

The practice is intentionally small. Smith works with a select group of clients at a time, a structure he says allows for the depth and continuity that long-term financial decisions require. Engagements focus on building diversified, risk-aware portfolios; structuring income and legacy strategies for retirement; providing an experienced second opinion on existing holdings; and helping clients understand the reasoning behind every decision.

That emphasis on judgment over volume reflects a philosophy Smith has carried throughout his career. “Markets reward patience and punish noise,” he said. “My role is to help clients hold a steady course when it matters most.”

Smith’s international background informs his approach. Born in Oslo, Norway, and educated across the United States, Germany, Scotland, and Australia, he earned a Master’s degree from Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen and a Ph.D. in Australia before entering finance in the early 1990s. He credits an early period working alongside renowned author and investor Robert Kiyosaki with shaping his conviction that financial education and disciplined strategy, not speculation, build lasting wealth.

After years of trans-continental work between the United States and Canada, Smith settled in Washington, where his consulting practice is now based. He describes the shift as an evolution rather than a retirement, a chance to apply decades of experience at a more personal scale.
