While it originates in Asia, its impact on global e-commerce continues to grow year on year. For UK e-commerce businesses selling internationally, Lunar New Year can present a valuable opportunity to boost first-quarter revenue. ![Picture of Simon Perkins](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/129/conversions/TBA41DHHU-UB8G6TW2C-a6e01c7f48ad-512-main.jpg) Simon Perkins Commercial Director at SAMOS ![Black pug tilting its head against a purple background with paw print icons, representing pet-friendly shipping services.](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/280/conversions/Thumbnail-Graphic-4-main.jpg)[](/blog/e-commerce/how-to-ship-pet-products-internationally) 21st January 2026[E-commerce](/blog/e-commerce) ### [ How To Ship Pet Products Internationally](/blog/e-commerce/how-to-ship-pet-products-internationally) Shipping pet products internationally is more challenging than most businesses realise. Even two shipments that look identical on paper can have completely different outcomes at the border — depending on ingredients, documentation and the destination country. ![Picture of Simon Perkins](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/129/conversions/TBA41DHHU-UB8G6TW2C-a6e01c7f48ad-512-main.jpg) Simon Perkins Commercial Director at SAMOS ![Illustration of a bag of grocery items delivered at an open front door, with a globe icon symbolizing global delivery reach.](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/282/conversions/Thumbnail--Graphic-8-main.jpg)[](/blog/e-commerce/how-to-ship-corporate-gifts-internationally) 21st January 2026[E-commerce](/blog/e-commerce) ### [ How to Ship Corporate Gifts Internationally.](/blog/e-commerce/how-to-ship-corporate-gifts-internationally) Corporate and marketing gifts can be incredibly powerful. They show your clients, customers or staff that you value the relationship, appreciate their business, and are willing to go the extra mile. Done well, a thoughtful gift can deepen loyalty and leave a lasting positive impression. But when corporate gifting goes wrong, it can quickly undo that goodwill. Delayed deliveries, customs issues, unexpected charges or missed parcels can frustrate clients and damage the trust you’ve built, impacting your client relations and overall brand reputation. ![Picture of Simon Perkins](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/129/conversions/TBA41DHHU-UB8G6TW2C-a6e01c7f48ad-512-main.jpg) Simon Perkins Commercial Director at SAMOS ![Illustration of a hanging light bulb and mugs beside a red 'Fragile, Handle With Care' shipping label.](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/278/conversions/Thumbnail--Graphic-10-main.jpg)[](/blog/e-commerce/shipping-home-decor-product-internationally) 23rd December 2025[E-commerce](/blog/e-commerce) ### [ Shipping Home Decor Product Internationally](/blog/e-commerce/shipping-home-decor-product-internationally) The global homeware e-commerce market continues to grow, driven by house-proud consumers who value convenience, choice and inspiration.

But for brands shipping internationally, it can also be a challenging month to navigate. Getting what you think are the best shipping solutions can be a costly mistake with hidden charges eating in to your tight margins. ![Picture of Simon Perkins](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/129/conversions/TBA41DHHU-UB8G6TW2C-a6e01c7f48ad-512-main.jpg) Simon Perkins Commercial Director at SAMOS ![Picture of a tennis racket with the globe as a ball](https://fls-a23386ec-a833-4d54-8bab-79a51619651d.laravel.cloud/271/conversions/Thumbnail-Graphic-3-main.jpg)[](/blog/e-commerce/guide-to-shipping-sports-outdoor-and-leisure-goods-globally) 24th November 2025[E-commerce](/blog/e-commerce) ### [ Guide to Shipping Sports, Outdoor and Leisure Goods Globally](/blog/e-commerce/guide-to-shipping-sports-outdoor-and-leisure-goods-globally) Shipping sports, outdoor and leisure products internationally can sometimes feel like you're running up a hill. Yes, some items are simple - a pair of trainers, a gym top, maybe a yoga mat. But once you add, camping equipment, fishing rods, dumbbells, tennis rackets and other bulky or fragile items, international shipping gets a lot more complicated - but it doesn't have to be.

But while selling to the US is a no-brainer, shipping there isn’t quite so straightforward. Think: long delivery times, unexpected fees and confusing customs and logistics.
