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.
In the early years、 Matson Mason、 as an enterprise with the background of the US military、 was little known in the market. It was not because of his low popularity、 but because he was busy doing business with the US government and was unwilling to do business in commercial trade. If the US FBA logistics market was not very popular in recent years、 many people might not know this company、 their military background、 the self owned wharf of Long Beach Port、 and the 12 day direct flight to the US from Shanghai to Ningbo Customs clearance stability has become a household name in the market、 so it has also become a benchmark for the US FBA logistics.
ZIM (Star Ship) is not as famous as Maersk、 COSCO、 EVA and other shipping companies in the field of traditional shipping、 but it is also a relatively old shipping company. It failed to capture the market opportunities and missed its first share in the U.S. FBA logistics industry、 but it does not affect its own company advantages. In order to prevent Mason's monopoly in the FBA field He quickly made a strong and powerful counterattack - The NewSpeedyZIMeCommerceXpress (abbreviated as ZEX)、 which was specially tailored for cross-border e-commerce marine cargo、 improved efficiency as much as possible by optimizing the operation process of picking up and returning goods at the port of departure and destination、 and met the demand of cross-border e-commerce customers for timeliness. Therefore、 he has launched a long confrontation with Meisen in the FBA logistics in the United States.
The FBA First Way Logistics Company I have worked with for a long time is Taobo Supply Chain. They have their own companies and overseas warehouses in the United States、 Britain、 Europe、 Canada、 and Japan. They help with customs clearance. It is easy to deliver goods to them. I recommend you to try
In the case of Matson Express、 it is a ship transporting international goods、 and its timeliness is relatively fast.
1、 Advantages of Meisen Express
1. Advantages
Matson Express fast shipping integrates the whole transportation process、 picking up process and its own advantages. Its most significant feature is fast picking up and delivery.
Time efficiency advantage: It only takes about 11 working days for container loading from Shanghai Port to Los Angeles、 the fastest shipping route at present.
Own terminals: In addition to fast speed、 Meisen Express has its own dedicated terminal in Los Angeles、 and other shipping companies use public terminals、 so Meisen Express has higher efficiency in container handling、 the most significant advantage in the peak shipping season、 is not easy to arrange warehouses、 and has good stability.
2. Disadvantages
High price: because Meisen Express is the fastest channel、 the price of Meisen Express is also the highest.
The ship can only be shipped in Shanghai: after receiving the goods in other domestic cities、 they also need to be sent to Shanghai for shipment. They are not friendly to other regions outside Shanghai、 which will increase domestic transportation costs.
3. Suitable for Matson Express fast shipping
On the whole、 Meisen Express is still a good shipping channel in the United States、 but it can only ship at Shanghai ports. Such shipping channels are only suitable for export enterprises in Shanghai and its surrounding cities. How to be an export enterprise in Shenzhen? It may be more cost-effective to spend time and money to ship goods to Shanghai、 increase the time and cost of transportation、 and choose other sea transportation.
4. Safe and efficient
Matson Express fast shipping has its own dock in the United States、 which will give priority to its own business needs and will not be affected by unexpected events.
5. Convenient and fast
Matson Express fast shipping ship is fully loaded in most cases、 so there is no need to participate in shared cabins、 and the benefits of not participating in shared cabins are obvious. Matson Express fast shipping has unique advantages in terms of operation efficiency and cost. Mason's ships operate independently and ship transfer is a command center the final say. The docks in the United States are easy to contact with ships. Because ships depend on the weather、 there are many uncertain factors、 and many things need to be decided and responded in time. The ships from the terminal to Meisen need to contact Meisen and do not need to coordinate with other shipping companies. Moreover、 Midea ships are all owned ships、 and the crew members are all American employees of Meisen Company、 so communication is very simple. Customers of Meisen also feel it is very convenient to get on Meisen's boat、 use Meisen's boxes、 unload them at Meisen's dock、 and use Meisen's free chassis cars (other companies charge fees). It is very convenient.
6. Unique
As far as the specific route is concerned、 the possibility of duplication of Matson Express fast shipping route is very low. Hawaiian and Guam routes are domestic routes of the United States、 and other foreign ships cannot receive cargo there. But what can be copied is regression value. This is something everyone can do and the shipping company must do. Customers vary widely. Sometimes customers don't know what they need. Before you present a specific product to him、 he is not very clear. The shipping company is required to have a sharp vision and unique insight、 see the future needs and pain points of customers、 that is、 the pent up needs now、 and provide the services that customers need.
7. Excellent financial position
In fact、 when they came to China from the United States and Spain、 they were already profitable. Then return to the United States from China、 although as a return cargo、 the freight rate of Matson Express fast shipping is higher than that of other shipping companies' main eastbound routes. So the financial situation of this route is very good. Because good is a virtuous circle、 Matson Express fast shipping can provide free chassis cars in Long Beach and accelerate in case of weather conditions. Although the fuel cost will be much higher、 Matson Express fast shipping can do this in order to fulfill its commitment to the customer's shipping schedule. In fact、 this is a virtuous circle. Because of the good financial performance and the company's overall financial performance and profitability、 it is possible to travel eastward without slowing down when the market is depressed、 even when the oil price is very expensive and everyone else slows down. This is because the financial performance and income level of the ship's westward travel are very high、 which ensures that the Meisen line will not be delayed.
