For medium and large products、 the cost of logistics and express delivery is a big part、 and the seller's top priority is to give consideration to freight and timeliness、 which directly determines whether he can have greater competitiveness in the competition with peers. The following factors need to be considered when selecting the overseas warehouse storage and final process one piece delivery mode: overseas warehouse location、 final process channel and storage system、 response speed、 ability to deal with emergencies、 peripheral supporting services、 etc.

The location of overseas warehouse mainly depends on whether it is distributed in the region of its main purchasing group、 whether it is close to the port、 whether it covers the United States、 etc. Among them、 whether it is close to the port will affect the timeliness and cost of trailer warehousing、 and the other two will directly affect the high and low cost of the final journey and the length of the timeliness、 which cannot be ignored.

However、 the tail channel is equally important. Besides the high and low cost、 we should also consider the stability of the tail channel and the ability to deal with emergencies such as stock explosion. It is better to choose your own tail channel. If it is the tail channel of others、 the price (changed) is not superior. Besides、 the response speed to deal with various problems is also unmatched. The experience is greatly discounted、 and even the problem cannot be solved at all. In addition、 such as the storage system、 surrounding facilities、 and whether the warehouse specializes in medium and large items are also factors that sellers need to consider when selecting cooperative overseas warehouses.

Amazon FBA in the United States limits the number of products to be warehoused according to the sales volume.

Then、 it will save a lot of costs to fill at least one container at a time.

At this time、 the most necessary is the American overseas warehouse.

Therefore、 the most obvious cost savings are transportation fees (including customs duties、 AMS、 IFS declaration fees、 BOND fees、 importer agency fees、 etc.).

And the recent trip to the United States has been delayed.

So now it has become a necessary choice for Amazon sellers and overseas warehouses

The selection of third-party e-commerce fulfillment dropshipping agent is very critical. They have advantages in terms of service quality、 service scope、 service fees、 etc. If they are not selected well、 subsequent cooperation is prone to various accidents. Therefore、 we suggest that you should pay attention to these aspects when choosing the corresponding company.

Geographic location: The location of the third-party company is very critical、 or it is located in the first tier cities、 where there are very rich logistics resources. If the location is not close to your own、 you should not choose other locations for the docking of goods. Later cooperation will be inconvenient.

Service content: whether the service content of the third party company can meet its own warehousing and logistics needs、 such as professional storage space、 camera equipment、 security commitment、 etc. If the third party company cannot provide、 do not choose.

Service level: The service level may not be high、 but it must not be low. It can reduce the occurrence of cargo accidents and ensure the delivery efficiency.

Corporate reputation: we must see the corporate reputation、 which can help us step on many pits less.

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.
