In this episode of Blue Ocean by StartOps, we sit down with Sean Henry, co-founder and CEO of Stord.

Sean’s journey began as a young entrepreneur selling products online, before he founded Stord while at Georgia Tech.

Since then, he has built Stord into a category-defining “cloud supply chain” company — a profitable, vertically integrated combination of fulfillment, software, and transportation services that can seamlessly take consumer goods from a factory to a customer’s front porch.

In this episode, we cover topics like:

What Stord has learned from Amazon about building a compound business Why Sean bet big on vertical integration and asset ownership (when others did the opposite) How to ensure quality across a large number of complex products Stord’s tricks for success when growing through M&A The ecommerce trends that Sean has got his eye on for this year
