What are the types of overseas warehouses

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