The IFGlobal story
The IFGlobal story began with the Bartlett family’s deep experience in building and scaling consumer brands, distribution networks, logistics operations, and international commerce.
Built on decades of commerce, distribution and operational experience
IFGlobal exists to solve a problem that only intensifies as brands grow; operations becoming more complex, faster than your team can keep up.
We help ecommerce and consumer brands stay in control as they scale into new channels, markets and fulfilment models, by bringing your infrastructure, systems, and operational insight together in one connected operating model.
Our story
We have grown alongside ecommerce, from early distribution right through to global fulfilment, always focused on helping brands scale while staying firmly in control as things become more complex.
HOW IT STARTED
The IFGlobal story begins in consumer distribution, where the Bartlett family built and scaled businesses operating across retail, wholesale and international markets.
The foundation created deep operational understanding of how products move through complex supply chains, and what it takes to scale them successfully.
KONDOR AND ECOMMERCE OPERATIONS
This experience evolved through Kondor, a leading UK consumer electronics distribution business, alongside the development of early ecommerce operations and brand-led selling models.
Managing multiple channels, product ranges and customer expectations highlighted a consistent challenge; operational complexity grows faster than most businesses are designed to handle.
This insight became the foundation for what came next.

FROM DISTRIBUTION TO FULFILMENT
In 2002, I-Fulfilment was established to support ecommerce and consumer brands facing the same operational challenges at scale.
What began as fulfilment execution evolved into a broader operational capability - supporting brands across DTC, retail, wholesale and marketplace channels.
As complexity increased, so did the need for greater visibility, control and systemisation across fulfilment operations.
BUILDING THE OPERATING SYSTEM - BLADEPRO™
BladePRO™ was built in-house, from the warehouse floor, to give brands real-time visibility and control over their operations.
What began as an internal operations platform has become the backbone of IFGlobal’s fulfilment infrastructure, connecting orders, inventory, reporting, and performance across global sites.
Today, BladePRO™ is our Fulfilment Operating System – the intelligence layer that helps brands scale with clarity, control, and confidence.
RECOGNITION, TRUST AND OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
Over the past two decades, IFGlobal has been recognised for its fulfilment approach and operational strength, while maintaining internationally recognised standards across our sites.
