# ZQUARED

> ZQUARED is a strategic e-commerce partner that helps brands grow profitably on Amazon and Walmart. Founded in 2010 and based in St. Louis, Missouri, ZQUARED has grown from a basement startup to one of the Inc. 5000's fastest-growing privately held companies. We serve 50+ brand partners, processing millions of units annually from our St. Louis fulfillment facility. We operate two service models: brand management (a resell model where we purchase and resell your inventory, investing in your advertising on our own dime) and brand services (a monthly fee-based model for ongoing marketplace management).

ZQUARED is not a typical optimization vendor. We function as an embedded strategic partner — involved in marketplace strategy, advertising investment, content, operations, and reporting. Under our brand management model, we put our own capital into client inventory and advertising, which means our financial success depends directly on theirs. This alignment drives a fundamentally different kind of partnership: one built on long-term outcomes, not short-term transactions.

## How We Work

ZQUARED partners with brands in one of two ways:

**Brand Management** — ZQUARED purchases and resells client inventory as an authorized 3P seller. We invest our own dollars in advertising, strategy, and operations. This model is designed for brands looking for a fully committed partner who shares financial risk and reward.

**Brand Services** — A monthly fee-based engagement for brands that want expert marketplace management without a resell arrangement. Covers advertising, content, reporting, case management, and strategic guidance.

In both models, ZQUARED handles the full scope of marketplace operations — so brands can focus on their products and business while we drive performance on Amazon and Walmart.
