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.
The cost of air transportation mainly includes freight and miscellaneous charges. The unit price of freight is calculated according to the weight grade. Generally、 there are several grades:
+45kg
+100kg
(Goods above 100kg)+300kg、+500kg、+1000kg
Generally、 if there is no corresponding level of freight rate、 the freight of goods is calculated according to the tact price. The billing weight of goods is also important. The weight of goods is divided into volume weight and gross weight in air transportation. When the volume weight is greater than the gross weight、 the volume weight is the billing weight of the goods. When the volume weight is less than the gross weight、 the actual gross weight is the billing weight.
Miscellaneous charges include many aspects、 generally including storage costs、 fuel surcharges、 war risks、 etc
Fuel surcharges and war risks are products under specific circumstances. Generally、 the company's quotation is included in the freight.
International air express delivery costs are calculated in kilograms、 100 yuan per kilogram、 and 1 kilogram or less
Generally speaking、 the overseas warehouse transshipment in the United States means that Chinese domestic e-commerce sellers transport their products to local overseas warehouses in the United States by air、 sea、 etc.、 and then forward the products to FBA warehouses or other overseas warehouses according to different needs.
The reasons for overseas warehouse transshipment in the United States are generally as follows:
1. It can operate on multiple account platforms.
2. Many goods are limited in Amazon warehouse due to size、 and can be normally stored in overseas warehouse.
3. Fast replenishment in peak season.
4. The goods can be intercepted in the middle and sent to the FBA warehouse.
One consignment of American overseas warehouse is that cross-border e-commerce sellers deliver products in bulk to the local third-party warehouse in the United States by express、 air delivery or sea transportation. After the order is generated on the platform、 the overseas warehouse processes the goods according to the order、 and then delivers them to USPS、 federal、 DHL and other local express delivery companies for delivery to the buyer. To put it simply、 follow these steps:
1. The seller arranges the first delivery of the goods to a third-party US warehouse;
2. The warehouse shall count the goods received and put them on shelves;
3. When a buyer places an order on the platform、 the buyer uploads the order in the American overseas warehouse system;
4. The warehouse receives the order instruction to distribute goods and deliver goods、 and domestic/international delivery;
5. The buyer receives the order item.
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.
