About Chad Schofield

Chad Schofield is currently Co-founder and Chief Digital Officer of BoxC, a logistics startup out of 500 Startups Batch 6 that simplifies the complexity of international parcel shipping by bringing together logistics and compliance resources from around the world into a single platform. As is the case with many startups he's involved in many aspects of the company from design of the company's proprietary software, business development and marketing, negotiations with carriers and postal authorities around the world as well as fund raising. The result has been fast growth year over year with the latest challenge managing the growth and expanding services from China, Hong Kong and the United States to the United Kingdom, Europe, Canada and Australia. Previously, he was Founder and Managing Director of Three Global, a consultancy to guide and advise companies, trade associations, NGOs and governments to adjust to changing realities of international marketing, sourcing and logistics in the apparel and accessories industry. He showcased his expertise in consulting and business by carrying out numerous assignments on strategy and implementation, design and development of new services, projects, and strategic partnerships. His specialty was consulting on domestic and global sourcing strategies and operations with TJM Group in Sydney, Australia. While consulting for USAID/COMPETE Africa, Schofield developed the concept of Origin Africa which is a branding and awareness campaign to promote and increase African apparel exports to the United States and Europe. As part of this effort, his team established an advisory panel of apparel industry leaders in the United States called Friends of Africa to advise and collaborate on solutions to increase East African manufacturers' global competitiveness. Increasing this global competitiveness to all Africans is important to Schofield, as seen through his work with small African fashion designers, brands and craftspeople by coordinating collaborations with United Sates based fashion brands or advising on international distribution. Through his professional experience, Schofield demonstrates expertise in many areas, especially strategic planning, business development, marketing & brand management, global sourcing, business development, import & export markets, new market identification and partner development.
