Male from New York City, United states and speaks EnglishAvailable for Collaboration, Interviews in Remote Formats
My audience are small business owners who are in the manufacturing, retail, wholesale and ecommerce industry. Topics that I usually cover are: trade, logistics, distribution, customs and compliance, tariffs, maritime among other things.
I come with a strong focus on with all going on, how can a small business owner make sense of what's happening and more importantly what is there for them to "do" now that such and such has happened.
I am big with actionable takeaways, if I can't leave my host with 1 or 2 actionable takeaways that a business owner can implement today, I did not do a good job.

About Abe Orgel
Abe Orgel – Shipping & Logistics Expert | Founder of Simple Forwarding
Abe Orgel is a freight and logistics expert who helps businesses ship smarter and save money.
As the founder of Simple Forwarding, he specializes in freight forwarding, customs compliance, and supply chain optimization, working with Amazon sellers, importers, and retailers.
Having navigated major industry shifts, including the record-high shipping rates of 2022, he knows the challenges businesses face when moving goods globally.
He has helped clients find faster, more cost-effective shipping routes, solve customs delays, and reduce risks in an unpredictable market.
One of his biggest lessons came in 2021 when a client defaulted on $1.3 million in payments, creating a major financial setback.
Instead of giving up, he used the experience to improve risk management and strengthen business strategies.
To help Amazon sellers cut shipping costs, he launched Amazon Sync by Simple Forwarding—a service that consolidates shipments from multiple sellers to optimize freight costs and reduce Amazon placement fees.
This solution helps sellers avoid the high costs of partial LCL shipments while ensuring faster check-in times and better inventory distribution across Amazon fulfillment centers.
He also founded Retail LaunchPad, a service that helps online sellers expand into brick-and-mortar retail, connecting them with wholesale buyers and streamlining the process.
An advocate for fair trade policies, he supports country-specific tariffs that protect businesses without disrupting global commerce.
His approach to success is simple: work backward from a deadline and focus on execution.
Outside of logistics, Abe has a passion for essential oils and herbal remedies, exploring natural ways to improve health and well-being.
Looking ahead, he is focused on expanding Simple Forwarding’s services, helping more businesses optimize shipping costs, improve supply chain efficiency, and navigate complex trade regulations.
He is also working to grow Amazon Sync and Retail LaunchPad, making it easier for sellers to scale their businesses efficiently.
Whether talking about shipping strategies, Amazon logistics, or the future of freight, Abe shares real-world insights and practical advice that businesses can use right away.
