1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by processing hardware, configure the processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
identifying location coordinates of a known location of an entity that can ship an item;
receiving customer location data from at least two customer computing entities of a plurality of customer computing entities associated with a customer, wherein the at least two customer computing entities are distinct from each other;
generating, based on the customer location data, a first determination of a current physical location of the customer and a second determination of the current physical location of the customer;
determining, based at least in part on the location coordinates and at least one of the first determination or the second determination, that the customer is within a configurable proximity of the entity; and
responsive to determining the customer is within the configurable proximity of the entity, having a notification transmitted via a network to at least one of the plurality of customer computing entities for display via a user interface notifying the customer of the entity from which the item can be shipped.
