The Challenge
Global ambition.
Local ops chaos.
My Fat Gorilla built a genuinely differentiated brand around sustainable bamboo products — with a growing community and real purpose behind every SKU. But going international on Amazon meant dealing with a patchwork of compliance requirements, VAT registrations, return flows, and warehouse logistics that no founder should manage alone.
Each new market came with its own legal framework, platform requirements, and operational complexity. The UK had UKCA. The USA had entirely different logistics. Every EU country had EPR. It was becoming a full-time job just to stay compliant — let alone grow.
Daniel needed a partner who could absorb all of that complexity — and let him stay focused on what actually builds brand value.
What we did
FULL
STACK.
Global operations. Complete compliance coverage. Logistics across continents. All owned by SPACEGOATS — so My Fat Gorilla can stay in their lane.
Global Ops
8 markets. One ops team.
SPACEGOATS owns all Seller Central operations across all 8 active markets — daily monitoring, pricing, case management, and return handling. Daniel never touches the backend.
Compliance
GPSR, EPR, UKCA — covered.
EU and UK product compliance for every SKU, including GPSR documentation, EPR reporting, and UKCA marking. No compliance fires, ever.
Returns
Returns handled end-to-end.
Cross-border returns are a nightmare — especially for sustainable product brands with eco-packaging. SPACEGOATS manages all return flows, reimbursements, and buyer communication across all markets.
The Journey
HOW IT
HAPPENED.
From a focused German launch to 8 active markets across Europe, the UK, and the USA — in four structured phases.
Onboarding
My Fat Gorilla joined SPACEGOATS with a clear mission: take sustainable bamboo products global without drowning their small team in logistics and compliance. Onboarding covered all EU product requirements, initial VAT registrations in DE and AT, and EPR compliance from day one.
3 → 5 Markets
SPACEGOATS expanded My Fat Gorilla's footprint from 3 initial markets into FR, ES, and IT. Full localization, marketplace listing setup, and compliance handling enabled rapid growth — without a single internal hire needed.
UK & USA Entry
Cross-border expansion beyond the EU required a completely different compliance and logistics stack. SPACEGOATS handled UK VAT registration, UKCA marking, and international FBA shipment planning — launching both markets within weeks.
8 Markets Running
My Fat Gorilla now operates across 8 active markets with SPACEGOATS managing every return, every compliance update, and every shipment. The founder focuses entirely on sustainable product innovation and community building.
“Full operational control — compliance, logistics, returns — so we can focus on what we love.”
