second-hand clothing Order Fulfillment Services | second-hand clothing Drop Shipping
Most used clothing is exported to developing countries, especially LDCs. In 2017, sub-Saharan African countries imported 23.8% of the global used clothing trade, far exceeding other regions.
An important factor behind the boom in the used clothing trade is the import demand for used clothing by some of the world's least developed countries. For example, the East African Economic Community countries, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda are Africa's largest import markets for used clothing. Imported used clothing is cheaper and of better quality than new clothing from local clothing factories. In Rwanda, the price of used clothes is usually only one-fifth of the price of new locally-made clothes.

In recent years, the huge profits brought by the acquisition of second-hand clothing have pushed this "low-key" industry from behind the scenes to the front. According to statistics in March 2019, the purchase price of second-hand clothing per ton ranges from 600 yuan to 2,800 yuan. First-hand sellers "sell" second-hand clothes at a price of 0 to 0.3 yuan. The huge acquisition spread in the middle is enviable.
Consumers are not ready to buy at full price, and there are actually many cheaper ways to find the high-quality items they want. The following are several popular second-hand goods resale platforms abroad: eBay, OfferUp, Poshmark, Tradesy, Chairish
Consideration factor 1. Whether the expected delivery time of the goods is consistent with your own requirements
Although the Japanese special line is a good transport scheme for goods to be delivered directly from the current region to the destination、 the main means of transportation and specific driving routes used by the Japanese special line developed by different logistics enterprises are not identical. Therefore、 when choosing the special line in Japan、 enterprises need to confirm the expected delivery time of goods to the logistics enterprises that provide the route in advance. If they find the special line that takes a relatively long time to transport goods、 they should try to avoid it.
Consideration 2. Whether there will be additional costs after the goods are delivered to the destination
Because the charging standards and cooperation process rules of logistics enterprises corresponding to different Japanese special lines are not completely consistent、 some logistics enterprises even require the pickup person to pay a certain service fee after successfully delivering customers' goods to the destination. Therefore、 when choosing the Japanese special line、 the enterprise must understand the charging system from the logistics enterprise in advance、 including whether there will be additional charges during the delivery of goods or after the goods are delivered to the destination、 so as to avoid the impact on the process of goods delivery due to the lack of consensus on costs.

01 Mature management system: the information connection between customers、 commodities、 overseas warehouses and logistics companies is very important. It is important to choose the system that meets the order integration needs of your own enterprise. For overseas warehouses、 the maturity of the system is the key to the maturity of overseas warehouses.
02 Warehouse area and operation capacity: the problem of overseas warehouse explosion and poor turnover also occurs frequently in peak season. Therefore、 companies with large inventory and operating capacity can also avoid these problems to a large extent.
03 Whether there is a professional team in China: An overseas warehouse service company with a domestic professional team will master the specifications before the goods are sent to the overseas warehouse、 so as to avoid problems overseas to the greatest extent、 and also better avoid problems overseas、 and better communicate and coordinate with customers.
04 Whether the overseas warehouse team is a local team: especially whether the person in charge of the overseas warehouse has many years of overseas life experience and many years of operation experience in the logistics industry. Each country and region will have different rules、 understand the truth、 and grasp the cost and risk.
05 Service items: In addition to providing overseas warehousing services、 are there any other sophisticated and comprehensive services? Companies with more comprehensive services will save you time and worry、 and make your turnover more flexible.
06 Whether customers will be selected: the warehouse itself is clearly positioned、 and any customer will receive overseas warehouses、 which will pose high risks. If any problem occurs in any link、 even one customer's problem will affect other customers. Therefore、 it is more reassuring to know how to refuse customers' overseas warehouse.
