It all starts with the customer: “After undergoing a mastectomy, I found a moment of unexpected inspiration while I was changing in my gym's locker room. I noticed another woman wearing an Anita Rosa Faia bra, identical to mine. Mine was specially designed for women who had the procedure but hers was crafted for everyone else. This small but meaningful connection offered me a sense of normalcy.” – An Anita Care customer
Stories like this are the inspiration behind Anita’s range of high-quality breast prostheses, mastectomy bras and swimwear that have empowered women to embrace their journeys with confidence and comfort. A purpose-first business like Anita needs a reliable shipping partner that understands their mission. The result? A partnership with UPS that’s lasted over a decade.
Customers rely on UPS for so much more: When people think of UPS, they probably imagine our iconic brown trucks. But for our customers, it's not just about deliveries. They know us as the go-to partners for finding ways to improve service to their customers.
We understood Anita’s business well enough to recommend consolidating parts of its North American operations and taking advantage of certain trade regulations. The result? Savings to the tune of $700K in duties and taxes and almost $500K in shipping and warehousing associated costs … all while improving service, reliability and performance.
UPS’s integrated network is unmatched: In today’s global economy, the product that ends up on your doorstep is often sourced, manufactured and distributed from several countries around the world. Like in Anita’s case, those supply chains offer great benefits to controlling quality, consistency and costs – but the logistics can get complicated.
“We can take the complexity out of global supply chains with solutions that not only help packages clear customs faster, but also by advising our customers on the ins and outs of customs duties, taxes, trade agreements and duty-free thresholds,” Ritesh Kishore, UPS Senior Account Executive. “Even established global companies like Anita need logistics partners to help keep up with an ever-changing marketplace.”
All of this behind-the-scenes work serves one simple mission – to change lives for Anita’s clients and women around the world.
