Using NZ Post and DHL Express for domestic and international shipping
New Zealand-based Luxe Fitness has grown from a viral social media startup to a leading eCommerce women’s health and fitness brand. With a focus on premium supplements and lifestyle products, founder Iyia Liu knew that fast, accurate fulfilment would be the key to customer satisfaction – and business success.
To save time on shipping and eliminate order errors, Luxe Fitness turned to Starshipit, which her team now use to ensure every package reaches customers quickly and correctly.
The global dietary supplements market is valued at over USD 177 billion (as of 2025) and is projected to grow to USD 258.75 billion by 2029. Iyia Liu saw an opportunity to approach this growing industry from a different angle – by creating high-quality supplements designed specifically for women.
It didn’t take long for the market to respond, and soon after launching Luxe Fitness was shipping thousands of orders to eager customers all across the globe.
"I would love to be one of the biggest online retailers for women's clothing in Australasia, there are a lot of brands and businesses that I aspire to such as Princess Polly, Showpo, and I know they do really well both in Australasia and internationally," Iyia Liu says.
Read on to discover Luxe Fitness’ journey and the fulfilment solutions that help them maintain order accuracy at scale.
As Luxe Fitness started to expand, ensuring that every order was making its way to the customer, on time and without errors, became a growing challenge.
When they were just starting out, the team relied on manual fulfilment – handwriting addresses and processing shipments one by one. While this often works on a small scale for retailers finding their feet, as order volumes start to increase, the inefficiencies can begin to stack up. Staff can struggle to keep up with growing order volumes, leading to shipments going out with incorrect addresses, subsequent delayed deliveries – and frustrated customers.
For a growing business, every mistake means additional costs for reshipping and handling customer service inquiries, which adds to the pressure.
Luxe Fitness needed a solution to automate fulfilment and minimise human error. They needed to ensure that every package reached the right customer without delays, and that their staff could focus on getting orders out the door – not whether they’d used the right postcode.
At the same time, securing the right carrier partners became a key challenge. With volumes increasing – both domestically in NZ and internationally – the team needed carrier partners to service their growing order volumes and a way to easily manage multiple carriers.
This is what led founder Iyia Liu to Starshipit.
Looking for a solution that could handle her order accuracy issue and the need to manage her carrier partners, Iyia Liu turned to Starshipit.
“[The solution] needed to be stable and reliable, and it needed to offer great customer support,” Iyia says.
Starshipit’s address validation feature became a game changer for Luxe Fitness, checking and correcting addresses for every order before automatically printing shipping labels. Accurate customer addresses meant drastically reduced failed deliveries, reshipments, and customer complaints.
With fewer undelivered parcels and a smoother fulfilment process, the team could focus on scaling their business, knowing every order was going to the right place.
For the bulk of their orders, Luxe Fitness partnered with New Zealand Post to ensure fast and reliable deliveries across the country. Thanks to Starshipit’s native integration, the team could get up and running quickly: importing orders, printing shipping labels in bulk, and tracking shipments – all from one platform. What’s more, as Starshipit maintains the integration, the Luxe Fitness team could focus on growing the business – not maintaining carrier integrations.
By leveraging New Zealand Post’s network and Starshipit’s automation features, Luxe Fitness streamlined their fulfilment process, reducing manual work while ensuring accurate and timely deliveries for their New Zealand customers.
Iyia’s last piece of advice for retailers? “Things don’t always go to plan, shipments can get stuck at customs, items can run out of stock, shipments can go missing, the list never ends, and that’s business (and life).”
