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.
International moving、 as the name implies、 cross-border personal goods transportation、 general families will ship all kinds of living goods to foreign countries、 and the common characteristics of international moving are "many" and "miscellaneous" moving goods.
Most friends who move internationally will choose shipping services. Economy、 safety and less restrictions are the unique advantages of shipping、 and it is a very suitable choice for families and individual countries to move.
The sea transportation is carried out by containers in a centralized manner、 and the shipping channels extend in all directions. Because of the economies of scale、 the cost of sea transportation is far lower than that of other transportation modes. Seven Seas International has its own network transportation in the whole process、 the group has its own LCL、 and does not use LCL with other companies to transport goods. It ensures that moving goods are clean、 safe、 and free from pollution、 and saves customers a lot of shipping costs; Sufficient cargo volume can ensure fixed shipping date.
The biggest difference is:
International air transport is generally from airport to airport. The consignor must deliver the goods to the warehouse at the airport or other places designated by the carrier、 and the consignor must go through the export customs declaration formalities by itself (of course、 if you go to the extreme、 you may ask that you can entrust an agent to do it instead of delivering and customs declaration by yourself、 of course、 you can entrust an agent to do it、 but the cost must be borne by you、 the same principle) The customer shall also go through the import customs clearance procedures when picking up the goods;
However、 international express delivery is almost a door-to-door service、 that is、 after the express company receives the goods at the door、 it directly delivers the goods to the address specified in the waybill until the consignee signs for receipt、 which is considered to be the completion of the service. During this period、 the export customs declaration and import customs clearance at the port of destination are handled on behalf of the express company. Sometimes、 when there are many goods、 the import duties generated at the port of destination are paid on behalf of the express company、 and then collected from the consignee when dispatching.
