baby clothes Order Fulfillment Services | baby clothes Drop Shipping
It is understood that at present, the maternal and infant industry includes all products such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, use, education and entertainment for children, adolescents and pregnant women aged 0 to 16. The cumulative number of products has reached more than 1.5 million. In terms of sales in 2014, the top five countries in terms of transaction value of the mother and baby industry are the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, Canada and the Netherlands. From the perspective of subdivided product categories, children's clothing and children's shoes are the two best-selling categories. Among them, children's clothing sales with a single price of 5 to 15 US dollars account for a large proportion, and the quantity distribution is also the largest, and the dress skirts of more than 20 US dollars currently lack market share and have excellent market prospects. It can be seen that the focus of cross-border sellers is on high-value products such as casual children's shoes and sports children's shoes.
Todropshipping focuses on the transportation of maternal and baby products, children's clothing, children's shoes, etc., and also has a number of special cargo lines, supporting the warehousing, distribution and transportation of jerseys and shoes, second-hand bags, purchasing clothing, board clothing, etc., with stable timeliness, affordable price, safety and reliability.
1. Headline transportation cost: It refers to the cost incurred in the first transportation of goods from China to the United States. The seller should choose a suitable transportation mode according to its own needs.
2. Warehousing or fulfillment charge: the cost of goods stored in overseas warehouses in the United States、 charged according to the storage period of goods、 and generally calculated according to the volume and weight of goods occupied.
3. Management fee: the expenses incurred by American overseas warehouse personnel for product entry、 transportation、 packaging and goods management do not include labor costs.
4. Delivery fee: One piece delivery is the service that most American overseas warehouses will provide now. The seller will push the order to the overseas warehouse、 and the overseas warehouse will arrange product delivery、 which is subject to the charge of the overseas warehouse.
5. Additional service fees: services such as transit、 return and replacement of goods、 overseas customer service、 etc. will be charged a certain amount of additional service fees、 mainly based on the services selected by the seller.
01 Large goods are easily damaged during transportation. Due to the characteristics of large goods such as large volume、 high quality and high value、 it is particularly important to ensure the integrity of the goods during transportation. However、 some overseas warehouses will ignore this. For example、 some overseas warehouses will not provide waterproof packaging for the goods、 adopt professional packaging techniques、 and create protective clothing、 which will cause damage to large goods during transportation due to improper packaging protection.
02 Large capital investment and cost estimation. The purchase cost of medium and large parts is much higher than that of small parts、 which has certain requirements for the seller's capital、 selection、 logistics and other capabilities.
03 In terms of logistics、 overseas warehouses are required、 and the logistics cost accounts for more than 30% of the turnover. Due to product weight、 volume and other reasons、 most large products are shipped to overseas warehouses by sea. After platform orders are generated、 they are directly delivered to consumers from overseas warehouses. The logistics cost of large products usually accounts for about 30% of the turnover、 which is reflected in the following aspects: the length of goods exceeds the standard、 extra long surcharges、 overweight products include overweight charges、 product packaging is too large、 and the size does not meet the standard、 which may lead to uncontrolled logistics costs.
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.
