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.

Why IFGlobal exists

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.

How we got here

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.

  • Where-we-are

    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.

    • UKWA Awards – Excellence in Value Added Services (Shortlisted, 2024)

    • Southern Enterprise Awards – Best Global Ecommerce Fulfilment Specialists (Winner, 2021)

    • ISO certifications and ongoing compliance across operations

    These milestones reflect our consistent focus on quality, reliability and continuous improvement.

    Our involvement extends beyond fulfilment. We actively support the communities and partnerships that help ambitious brands grow.

    • Breakout Beauty UK – Exclusive fulfilment partner to one of the beauty industry’s leading growth programmes, with our CEO, James, serving on the Breakout Beauty Advisory Board.
    • DTC Live – Annual sponsors of one of the UK's leading ecommerce communities, supporting founders and operators through events, networking and knowledge sharing.

    These partnerships show our commitment to supporting the wider ecommerce ecosystem and helping brands succeed at every stage of growth.

We weren’t looking for a 3PL at the time, but once we saw the cost savings and realised how local IFGlobal’s UK sites were, it made perfect sense.

When we met with the team, everyone was really friendly and the service felt personal - we weren’t going to be onboarded and left to it, we were going to have someone supporting us the whole way through.
