Your brand's compliance starts with your 3PL
When retailers ask for proof your fulfillment partner is certified, when auditors want documentation, or when leadership asks whether your 3PL is a liability, this page is the answer.
ShipMonk maintains two independent compliance programs: facility certifications for FDA-regulated, consumable, and perishable products, and SOC 2 Type II compliance across the platform. Both are independently audited. Neither is an afterthought.
ShipMonk certificates
For brands shipping FDA-regulated products
If you ship supplements, food and beverage, pet products, cosmetics, or any other FDA-regulated category, your fulfillment partner is part of your compliance story. Every US ShipMonk facility is FDA-registered. Six are GFSI-certified to the BRCGS Storage and Distribution standard at AA grade. cGMP procedures are documented and maintained across the network. You can point to your 3PL in an audit, qualify for retailers that require GFSI certification, and contain a recall before it becomes a brand crisis.
SOC compliance certification
SOC 2 Type II is the independent verification that ShipMonk's data security controls work, and that they've been tested over time, not just at a point in time. Your inventory data, order history, and customer information are handled under audited controls. Every merchant gets the same protection, regardless of category.
“From digital security, to trust, to real-world audits of our facilities, ShipMonk actively takes transparent action to ensure your brand, services, and products are carefully managed.”
