What 7+ Years at Gnarlywood Has Taught Me About Passion, Teamwork, and Client Success

guest article by anna bloch

In a time when it’s rare to stay at one company long-term, I think longevity speaks volumes.

If you’ve been somewhere for 7+ years like I have, it says something about the culture, the leadership, the people—and the purpose behind the work.

For me, that place is Gnarlywood.

It All Starts From Within

When people love what they do and feel supported in their environment, it shows in the work. You can feel the momentum. The output grows—not just in volume, but in impact.

I’ve learned over the years that the best results come from teams who genuinely care—not just about doing the job, but about doing it well, together.

When you’re personally invested in your clients and the people you work with, there’s a deeper level of ownership and creativity that kicks in.

That’s the Difference at Gnarlywood

We’re not just a fulfillment partner. We’re a crew of passionate people, constantly communicating and collaborating to execute every move—with intention, precision, and heart.

What’s kept me here all these years isn’t just a paycheck. It’s the opportunity to show up every day with purpose. To stoke out our clients. To brainstorm creative solutions. To build something that matters—with a team that feels more like a think tank than a corporate structure.

What Makes This Place Special?

It’s the fact that we see the full cycle of the business.

We're not siloed into departments that barely speak. We sit around the same table, on the warehouse floor, or outside sharing burritos—figuring out how to support our clients in the best ways possible.

That level of visibility means that when I answer a client question or troubleshoot a challenge, I’m not guessing. I understand how each decision affects the next step in the process—whether it’s picking, packing, shipping, or customer service.

It’s a well-rounded approach that builds trust, clarity, and results.

A Company with Roots—and Vision

Gnarlywood was built from the ground up by founders who know what it’s like to hustle and dream big.

That spirit of entrepreneurship still runs through everything we do. And it’s why our clients don’t just feel like accounts—they feel like partners.

We’re not just a 3PL matched with a client.
We’re a passionate, creative, and experienced team helping e-commerce brands thrive—through every order, every campaign, and every launch.

This Is Why We Show Up

We’re here to help our clients kick ass and reach their highest potential—plain and simple.

That’s the energy we bring into every project, every conversation, and every crazy idea we help bring to life.

Because that’s what it’s all about, right?
