1. Self built warehouse by the seller

This category is the overseas warehouse built by the seller himself. The advantage of this kind of overseas warehouse is that the seller can control and manage itself and is flexible. The disadvantage is that the seller needs to solve the problems of warehousing、 customs declaration、 logistics and transportation、 and the construction cost and risk of self built warehouse are also large. In addition、 it is difficult to obtain advantageous prices in transportation if the delivery volume is not large.

2. Platform warehouse (e.g. Amazon FBA)

This is a service provided by Amazon itself for sellers. At the same time、 Amazon has many preferential policies for users: for example、 it helps sellers improve the ranking of products on Amazon's pages and become featured sellers. However、 the fees are expensive、 the customer service is not up to standard、 the flexibility is poor、 and it is also very annoying.

3. Third party overseas warehouse (such as Todropshipping fulfillment)

The actual cooperation between cross-border e-commerce and third-party overseas warehouses also falls into two categories.

The benefits of special logistics lines are lower transportation costs、 definite arrival time、 and the ability to meet urgent goods. The logistics special lines of logistics companies are available in all the outlets nationwide、 with relatively stable speed and relatively high credit. The travel time of special line companies is generally determined、 the route is fixed、 and the transportation cost of customers will also be reduced.

The international special line logistics adopts the international direct flights to the destination countries、 the goods are short in transit、 the price is cheaper than the general logistics、 the formal commercial customs clearance、 the customs clearance sales are high、 and the direct delivery to customers is a very cost-effective logistics transportation scheme.

International special line logistics and international express delivery are common cross-border mail packages for cross-border e-commerce sellers

International express delivery refers to the express logistics business conducted between two or more countries (or regions). Similar to domestic express companies and international express companies、 the main service and timeliness can achieve door-to-door transportation、 customs clearance is fast and efficient、 but the price cost is also relatively high. It is generally applicable to personal mailing of emergency goods、 or cross-border sellers sending goods with high value、 and the cost performance ratio is not high.

Special line express is mainly used to connect cross-border logistics companies with special lines from one country to another、 centralize goods for directional transportation、 and reduce costs through scale effect. Therefore、 the cost performance of international cross-border special lines is much higher than that of international express.

In addition、 cross-border logistics companies that can form a stable transportation scale will not be much slower than international express delivery in terms of efficiency. For example、 I found that the well-known Todropshipping and Daiyou Bao special lines in China take 5-8 working days to reach the United States、 while the reference efficiency of UPS is 4-7 working days、 with a small difference. Therefore、 the cross-border special line logistics has a high cost performance ratio and is suitable for small and medium-sized cross-border sellers to send packages internationally.

01 Large goods are easily damaged during transportation. Due to the characteristics of large goods such as large volume、 high quality and high value、 it is particularly important to ensure the integrity of the goods during transportation. However、 some overseas warehouses will ignore this. For example、 some overseas warehouses will not provide waterproof packaging for the goods、 adopt professional packaging techniques、 and create protective clothing、 which will cause damage to large goods during transportation due to improper packaging protection.

02 Large capital investment and cost estimation. The purchase cost of medium and large parts is much higher than that of small parts、 which has certain requirements for the seller's capital、 selection、 logistics and other capabilities.

03 In terms of logistics、 overseas warehouses are required、 and the logistics cost accounts for more than 30% of the turnover. Due to product weight、 volume and other reasons、 most large products are shipped to overseas warehouses by sea. After platform orders are generated、 they are directly delivered to consumers from overseas warehouses. The logistics cost of large products usually accounts for about 30% of the turnover、 which is reflected in the following aspects: the length of goods exceeds the standard、 extra long surcharges、 overweight products include overweight charges、 product packaging is too large、 and the size does not meet the standard、 which may lead to uncontrolled logistics costs.

Virtual overseas warehouse is the virtual change mode of overseas warehouse. Compared with the traditional overseas warehouse model、 it has less storage costs、 unlimited price close to e-mail.com、 high service quality and local delivery advantages.

The process is as follows: the mainland will print out the final delivery form of the United States or the destination country (the warehouse close to the destination can be automatically selected according to the zip code of the destination)、 and then paste it directly on each small outer box. The seller will pack these small pieces into a large package and send them to our warehouse with a express bill or other first journey solutions such as ocean shipping. Our staff (Todropshipping overseas employees) will unpack the package on the spot after receiving it、 and deliver it to the logistics provider for distribution to the buyer.

At present、 Todropshipping Overseas Warehouse has overseas warehouses in Europe and the United States. It is convenient for shipment、 transit and warehousing、 and is a good choice.
