MIAMI – First-time Prosper Show exhibitor SkyPostal is a logistics provider specializing in cross-border shipping, particularly into Latin America—a market projected to reach $270 billion by 2028. With Amazon’s Brazil and Mexico marketplaces ranked as their #3 and #4 globally, Latin America (LATAM) is a high-growth region, yet fewer than 5% of U.S. sellers are tapping into it.
“Now is the perfect time for sellers to establish a presence and unlock the vast potential in this thriving market,” says Christie Rugh, vice president, Sales & Marketing, SkyPostal, Inc., Miami, Florida. “SkyPostal offers a range of solutions to help U.S. sellers expand into LATAM, while saving clients up to 40% on shipping costs with the same quality service offered by other providers. We support both domestic and LATAM shipping, making it cost-effective and efficient to reach new customers.”
SkyPostal’s Key Solutions
1) Partnering with a Seller Aggregator: Sellers can work with an aggregator service that manages listings, marketing, and customer service on multiple Latin American platforms. Sellers only need to load items into the portal, and SkyPostal handles the logistics.
2) Leveraging Your Website and Meta Catalog: Sellers can activate a Meta catalog and use SEM marketing for visibility, achieving positive ROI in as little as three weeks. SkyPostal connect clients with partners for tax IDs and country-specific requirements, while SkyPostal manages all logistics.
3) Direct Marketplace Integration: Sellers who want a more hands-on approach can sign up directly on LATAM marketplaces. SkyPostal takes care of logistics, allowing sellers to focus on account management and visibility.
SkyPostal is scheduled to exhibit at Prosper Show 2025, scheduled for March 25-27 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Prosper Show sat down with Rugh to learn more about SkyPostal’s services and solutions, as well as reasons why it’s so important to maximize efficiency in international shipping.

Prosper Show: Why is it so important to maximize efficiency in the arena of international shipping?
Rugh: Efficient international shipping solutions are crucial for online sellers seeking competitive advantage and long-term growth. With the Latin American e-commerce market expanding at record speeds, maximizing shipping efficiency enables sellers to manage costs, improve customer satisfaction, and strengthen brand loyalty. SkyPostal’s expertise helps sellers save up to 40% on LATAM shipments, making it cost-effective to tap into these untapped opportunities.
Prosper Show: What specific examples can you share?
Rugh: Sellers can expect LATAM sales to reach 10% to 25% of their U.S. sales, depending on their product category. Here’s a success story that showcases this potential: We helped a perfume and cosmetics distributor from New Jersey expand into Latin America by connecting them with one of our clients who provides a seller aggregator platform. This platform simplified their entry into LATAM, and six months later, they’re processing 2,000+ orders monthly.
Prosper Show: What contributed to their success?
Rugh: I’ve compiled a list of the contributors
- Seamless API Integration:We facilitated a smooth API integration with the aggregator platform, allowing them to upload their entire product catalog effortlessly.
- Competitive Pricing:By focusing on high-demand items, they were able to set competitive prices, effectively driving sales in the LATAM market.
- Strategic Sales Collaboration:Our sales team ensured they participated in key promotional campaigns, maximizing their visibility and reach.
- Smooth Logistics Operation:With SkyPostal handling all logistics, the distributor benefited from timely deliveries and high customer satisfaction.
This combination of tech integration, strategic pricing, proactive sales support, and reliable logistics empowered them to succeed in the LATAM market—highlighting the effectiveness of the seller aggregator model for tapping into this region.
Prosper Show: Why did SkyPostal decide to exhibit at Prosper Show 2025?
Rugh: SkyPostal decided to exhibit at Prosper Show 2025 to introduce e-commerce sellers to the largely untapped Latin American market—a high-growth opportunity that many may not have fully considered. Our goal at Prosper is to educate sellers on how they can easily enter Latin America with our seamless logistics solutions or, for those ready to take on more, to guide them on expanding their own operations. This event is the perfect setting to show sellers how SkyPostal can help them establish and grow their presence in this thriving market.
Prosper Show: There are some changes (possibly) on the horizon, such as high tariffs on goods from China. If such tariffs were to happen, how could you help sellers who may be looking for other countries from which to source goods?
Rugh: We don’t anticipate that potential high tariffs on goods from China would impact selling into Latin America. SkyPostal’s logistics solutions remain unaffected, allowing us to support sellers seamlessly as they expand into the LATAM market. Our robust network and expertise ensure a smooth, cost-effective shipping process, regardless of global tariff shifts. This enables sellers to grow their presence in Latin America with confidence.
Prosper Show: What’s your level of optimism for the online selling community in the new year?
Rugh: We’re very optimistic. Latin America is the fastest-growing region in online retail, and with its e-commerce market projected to hit $270 billion by 2028, sellers who enter now stand to gain early access to a thriving customer base. As infrastructure and digital payment options expand, LATAM presents immense opportunities. With the right logistics partner, sellers can establish a robust presence in this dynamic, high-potential region.
