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.
1. Continental shipment
The British special line package from the mainland、 known as the British general cargo special line、 is loaded and shipped from domestic airports such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen to the UK. After customs clearance、 it is delivered to Royal Mail for terminal delivery and can be delivered to the whole UK. Chinese Mainland strictly inspects sensitive goods、 so it is unable to deliver any sensitive goods. However、 the direct installation from inland has high installation efficiency、 fast delivery efficiency and better logistics timeliness.
2. Departure from Hong Kong
Hong Kong departure is known as the British special line electrified small bags. The goods are transferred from Shenzhen to Hong Kong、 loaded after arriving in Hong Kong for departure to Britain、 and delivered to Royal Mail for terminal delivery after arriving in Britain. When goods are transferred to the UK、 we can take advantage of Hong Kong's relatively loose export policy to deliver some sensitive goods、 such as items with batteries、 liquids、 cosmetics、 etc.
Amazon and overseas warehouse are not contradictory、 on the contrary、 they can complement each other.
Amazon FBA has advantages in order fulfillment、 inventory and distribution. However、 compared with the third-party overseas warehouse、 FBA's storage cost is much higher. It is quite troublesome to return goods and clear up. In addition、 the first transportation cost in the peak season will rise a lot、 and in the peak season、 it will give you problems such as limited inventory and inability to put in the warehouse at one time. While many sellers use FBA as their sales warehouse、 they will choose a reliable third-party overseas warehouse as their secondary replenishment warehouse and return processing warehouse. The overseas warehouse will unpack、 temporarily store or directly send full containers to FBA after receiving the goods.
