How to select an appropriate overseas warehouse for medium and large articles?

1. Mature management system: the information connection between customers、 commodities、 overseas warehouses and logistics companies is very important. It is necessary 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;

2. Warehouse area and operation capacity: the overseas warehouse explosion and poor turnover are also common problems in peak seasons. Therefore、 companies with large inventory and operating capacity can also avoid these problems to a large extent;

3. 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、 to avoid problems overseas to the greatest extent、 to better avoid problems overseas、 and to better communicate and coordinate with customers;

4. 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;

5. 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;

6. Whether customers will be selected: the warehouse itself has a clear positioning、 and any customer will receive overseas warehouses、 which will be highly risky. 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.

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 most affordable price can only be obtained through comprehensive comparison according to the mailing country、 product、 real weight、 volume size and timeliness requirements. If you want to send international express at a low price、 it is recommended that you find a trusted international express agency when delivering goods. The freight is 30% to 50% off of the four major international express.

The methods for selecting four major international express agency companies are as follows:

1. Perfect warehousing management. The agent company must have professional warehouse management technology to handle countless parcels every day. This warehouse management includes package putting on the shelf、 storage、 off the shelf、 inspection points、 packaging、 shipping and other links. Every link requires preciseness and efficiency. It is not so simple to deliver goods on the same day.

2. Professional customer service. To put it bluntly、 it can provide you with effective international express channels、 package declaration value and other suggestions. Tariff has always been the most troublesome thing for international express delivery. If an agency cannot reduce tariffs to the greatest extent for customers、 it is not a qualified agency at all.

3. Remove excess packaging. The price of international express is proportional to the weight of the package and the volume. If you buy something on a treasure website、 as an aspiring shopper、 how can you buy only one or two? At this time、 it is particularly important to remove the redundant packaging.

4. In addition to the above services、 price is also very important. Before delivery、 be sure to ask clearly whether packaging fee、 handling fee、 fuel surcharge、 etc. are needed in addition to freight.

Todropshipping has high-quality logistics channels、 which can reach more than 220 countries and regions in the world. At the same time、 as the first level agent of the four major international express、 Todropshipping can enjoy a lower price than the official website when delivering goods through its supply chain、 and the logistics channel can offer discounts all the year round.

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.

Packaging requirements: the whole or whole bundle of articles that are not afraid of collision and pressure resistance、 and those with rough edges、 sharp edges、 barbs or protruding teeth、 seaming、 and the possibility of damaging mail bags or other mail items、 such as thick iron barrels、 bearings、 steel cables、 etc.、 shall be boxed、 wrapped with thick cloth and fastened with ropes、 or fastened with iron sheets; All edges and corners are smooth、 the surface is flat、 and the mail bag tube will not be damaged. Rope cloth can be used to fasten or wind firmly. Valuables、 such as watches、 pocket watches、 cameras、 gold and silver ornaments、 jewelry、 precious medicinal materials、 etc.、 should be packed in strong and pressure resistant paper or metal boxes or wooden boxes、 and the space in the boxes should be properly filled with soft materials、 and the boxes should be wrapped with tough paper、 or wrapped with cloth.
