Fresh products need a reliable shipper

Meat N’ Bone’s beginnings: Not so long ago, friends Luis Mata and Gabriel Llaurado dreamed of bringing back the experience of an old-school butcher shop … with a modern twist. Their vision? A place where customers can get top-tier proteins and exceptional customer service, that also ships its products right to their door. Fast forward to today, Luis and Gabriel’s small business is thriving with the help of UPS’s shipping services.

도전 과제: Meat N’ Bone needed a reliable way to get their fresh meats to customers across the U.S. quickly. They also wanted to work with a local team that could help them make shipping decisions and manage costs.

The solution: Meat N’ Bone tapped into UPS shipping services on Unishippers – a third-party logistics (3PL) company that tailors solutions for small and medium-sized business shippers focused on cutting costs and increasing efficiency.

“Working with UPS and Unishippers, we've grown our national footprint while keeping costs steady,” said Luis, CEO and founder of Meat N’ Bone. “From a business perspective, reliable, on-time deliveries mean fewer complaints and more repeat business. The savings and trust we've built with our customers have led to higher retention and smoother operations.”

Meat N’ Bone relies on UPS 2nd Day Air to ship nationwide, delivering the speed they need to keep products fresh at a cost that makes sense for their business. Plus, our powerful tracking tools and flexible delivery options have proven essential, especially when time-sensitive deliveries are at stake.

“The bottom line is our customers expect a fresh, premium product,” Luis said. “This collaboration gives us the confidence to scale without sacrificing product integrity.”
