Stord Launches New Accelerator Program to Support High-Growth Brands

Stord, a leader in high-volume fulfillment services and supply chain technology, has launched a new accelerator initiative aimed at providing enterprise-level commerce enablement services to emerging, fast-growing brands. The program offers access to advanced fulfillment, parcel, and last-mile services, along with a robust order management system (OMS) to help smaller brands compete on a larger scale.

This new initiative targets direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands that ship approximately 1,000 orders or more per month through platforms like Shopify. Participating brands will benefit from seamless marketplace integrations, discounted shipping rates, same-day shipping, and a variety of consumer experience tools, including shipment protection.

According to Stord CEO and Co-Founder Sean Henry, the program addresses a critical gap in the market for high-growth brands: “We’ve seen many emerging brands struggle to compete due to constraints with their fulfillment and delivery capabilities. We’re excited to help these high growth companies tap into the same market-leading consumer experience—comprised of fast, cheap, and trusted checkout and delivery capabilities—that are usually only accessible to enterprise brands.”

Heaven Mayhem Scales Operations with Stord Partnership

One of the brands already benefiting from the accelerator program is Los Angeles-based accessory and lifestyle brand Heaven Mayhem. Known for its celebrity following and year-over-year growth, the brand partnered with Stord to handle increasing customer demand.

Pia Mance, Heaven Mayhem’s Founder and Creative Director, highlighted the importance of the partnership: “Stord allows us to scale at the pace we’re targeting, both operationally and technically, and delivers significant parcel savings. Most importantly, they’re aligned culturally with us, work rapidly and quite simply, are easy to do business with. We see Stord as a key partner on our continued growth trajectory.”

SuperPlants Leverages Stord for European Expansion

SuperPlants, a family-owned business specializing in organic superfood mixes and plant-based vitamins, is also leveraging Stord’s services to meet rising global demand. With the superfood market surpassing $200 billion in 2024, the brand is perfectly positioned for growth.

Co-founder Michael Kuech emphasized the value of working with Stord: “At SuperPlants, we’re more than a business—we’re a mission-driven family passionate about helping people thrive. Every product we create is designed to elevate health naturally, and working with an enterprise-level commerce enablement partner like Stord allows us to focus on what matters most: our customers and their well-being.”

SuperPlants has expanded its fulfillment capabilities into Europe, with a strategic warehouse location in the Netherlands. This expansion enables the brand to serve a global customer base with clean, plant-based health solutions.

Wunderground Coffee Partners with Stord for Sustainable Growth

Wunderground Coffee, a mushroom-infused coffee brand that promotes mental health through its unique product offerings, has also joined the accelerator program. The brand focuses on community and sustainability, aligning well with Stord’s mission to optimize carrier selection and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Founder Jody Hall expressed excitement about the partnership: “I am thrilled to partner with Stord to help nurture Wunderground Coffee. Stord not only offers my growing business the critical e-commerce fulfillment acumen my customers expect, but they also share my passion for sustainability and ecological impact. Knowing that they can optimize our carrier selection to reduce time in transit and overall greenhouse gas emissions aligns perfectly with my brand’s commitment to bettering people and the planet.”

Empowering Emerging Brands with Advanced Fulfillment Solutions

Stord’s new accelerator program offers high-growth brands a unique opportunity to access tools and services typically reserved for enterprise-level businesses. By providing seamless integration with online marketplaces, discounted shipping rates, and comprehensive order management capabilities, Stord is leveling the playing field for smaller brands.

With Heaven Mayhem, SuperPlants, Wunderground Coffee, and more already onboard, the program is set to revolutionize the way emerging brands manage their supply chains and scale their operations.
