First of all、 we need to know two concepts: billing weight unit、 first weight and additional weight

Billing weight unit: The international express industry generally takes 0.5KG (0.5kg) as a billing weight unit.

First weight and additional weight: the first 0.5KG is the first weight for international express delivery、 and every additional 0.5KG is an additional weight. Generally、 the cost of hoisting is higher than that of continuous hoisting.

There is one price between 0.5KG and 0.5KG、 which is the first weight price. The part exceeding 0.5KG will be charged according to the additional weight price

Therefore、 the actual freight is equal to the first weight price+additional weight price

When the actual weight of the goods to be delivered is greater than the volume weight、 the freight=first weight freight+(actual weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

When the actual weight of the delivered goods is small but the volume is large、 the freight=the first freight+(volume weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

Note that the freight here is only the basic freight、 not the final total cost、 and there may be other additional costs.

Packaging fee: Generally、 international express companies provide free packaging、 cartons、 bubbles and other packaging materials、 but many items、 such as clothing、 can be packaged without extra fine packaging、 but some express companies will charge a certain packaging fee for valuable and fragile items. Packaging costs are generally not included in the discount calculation.

Fuel surcharge: all major international express will be updated in real time according to market conditions. Please consult customer service for specific fees.

Other uncertain expenses: such as service fees in remote areas、 sensitive freight charges for sending batteries、 powders、 liquids、 food、 brands、 etc.、 which are mainly related to the items and regions you send.

Basically、 total cost=(freight+fuel surcharge) × Discount+packaging cost+other uncertain costs

In addition、 different countries and different logistics channels have different basic charging standards、 and the cost may also be affected by many factors such as flight outage. The specific charging standards can also be subject to the real-time quotation of the express company.

1. The market demand of products should be large

This is the basic principle. Long tail products are not suitable for overseas warehouses、 because it will affect the conversion rate and produce life and death inventory. However、 the size of the market is reasonable、 and the seller needs to evaluate according to the capital situation and turnover rate.

2. Focus on the total profit per unit time rather than the profit of a single transaction

In general、 the profit margin of overseas warehouse of most products will be much higher than that of domestic shipment、 which is also the advantage of overseas warehouse.

Is it true that the profits of overseas warehouses are not as good as those of products shipped domestically、 so they must not be overseas warehouses? In fact、 it is not because we also need to comprehensively consider the conversion rate of overseas warehouse、 because products with high conversion rate can also achieve higher total profits through overseas warehouse!

This requires our sellers to look at overseas warehouses from a developmental and overall perspective.

For example、 if the profit margin of a product shipped from China is 20% and that of an overseas warehouse is 10%、 but the conversion rate of an overseas warehouse is 6 times that of a Chinese shipment、 the total profit obtained in the same time period is 3 times that of a Chinese shipment. Therefore、 we should not only look at the profit rate、 but also calculate the overall cost and benefit.

Matson fast ship refers to a sea transportation route from Shanghai (Ningbo、 Xiamen) port to Long Beach in the United States.

The predecessor of Matson fast ship is to ship arms. It has entered the Chinese market since 2005、 opened the first China US route (CLX1) in China、 and attached itself to Ningbo Shanghai Long Beach. This route uses five container ships that can carry 2600 TEU containers on average.

Matson Express generally takes about 15 days to sail at sea、 so the time limit is fast.

Matson Express has its own port、 which is not likely to be blocked in the traditional peak season like other ports.

As far as the Amazon seller logistics is concerned、 the FBA business process of Meisen Express is: the FBA goods from Shenzhen and other regions where there are many sellers are loaded first、 then concentrated in Shanghai port by barge、 and then directly sent to Long Beach、 USA.

After arriving at Long Beach、 the goods will be distributed to LA Port or distributed to FBA warehouses by express delivery. Amazon warehouses in Western America deliver goods at the fastest speed and most timely. ONT8 warehouses in Western America are also warehouses where a large number of Chinese sellers concentrate their goods、 so they are very popular with sellers in the United States and Asia.

Warehouses provide value-added services、 share business risks、 and e-commerce warehousing agent delivery. In addition to basic warehousing agent delivery services、 e-commerce warehousing outsourcing companies can also provide e-commerce enterprises with a series of value-added services and improve follow-up services. At the same time、 warehouses can bear a series of dangerous losses to e-commerce sellers during the storage process、 and provide reliable logistics support for e-commerce.

We have a professional operation management team、 skilled staff sorting and packaging、 and lower cost express logistics. After the customer places an order、 you only need to push the order to Todropshipping system、 and the warehouse operator will provide one-stop service for sorting、 packaging、 shipping and distribution of goods. In this way、 e-commerce sellers do not have to worry about warehouse and delivery、 and can focus all their energy on developing business and expanding channels.

1. Whether there is a professional team in China or the destination Country 

Some overseas warehouses are only responsible for the part after overseas warehousing. Once problems occur、 the goods are already overseas、 which is often difficult to deal with. The overseas warehouse service with a domestic professional team will be standardized before the goods are sent to the overseas warehouse. Overseas warehouse opening by HATO can provide cross-border e-commerce sellers with one-stop import and export customs clearance services、 good customs clearance qualifications、 mature customs clearance experience、 fast and efficient、 to maximize the avoidance of overseas problems、 and also to maximize the avoidance of overseas additional costs.

2. Whether the warehouse provides insurance

In recent years、 some overseas warehouses have become more and more standardized. In order to ensure the interests of sellers、 they have begun to provide various types of insurance、 cargo damage insurance、 loss of parts insurance、 delay insurance and other insurance against cross-border e-commerce pain points. The seller has always been in a weak position. Once there is a problem in the warehouse、 these insurances allow the seller to obtain reasonable claims without losing money.

3. Scale and hardware facilities

It is very easy to understand、 a small overseas warehouse has relatively poor stability、 and an overseas warehouse company with a scale of 5K square meters or even tens of thousands of square meters can hardly close down or disappear overnight. The same is true for the hardware facilities. The perfect hardware facilities mean that the overseas warehouse can provide more efficient and mature services.
