Most used clothing is exported to developing countries, especially LDCs. In 2017, sub-Saharan African countries imported 23.8% of the global used clothing trade, far exceeding other regions.
An important factor behind the boom in the used clothing trade is the import demand for used clothing by some of the world's least developed countries. For example, the East African Economic Community countries, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda are Africa's largest import markets for used clothing. Imported used clothing is cheaper and of better quality than new clothing from local clothing factories. In Rwanda, the price of used clothes is usually only one-fifth of the price of new locally-made clothes.

In recent years, the huge profits brought by the acquisition of second-hand clothing have pushed this "low-key" industry from behind the scenes to the front. According to statistics in March 2019, the purchase price of second-hand clothing per ton ranges from 600 yuan to 2,800 yuan. First-hand sellers "sell" second-hand clothes at a price of 0 to 0.3 yuan. The huge acquisition spread in the middle is enviable.
Consumers are not ready to buy at full price, and there are actually many cheaper ways to find the high-quality items they want. The following are several popular second-hand goods resale platforms abroad: eBay, OfferUp, Poshmark, Tradesy, Chairish
1. Professional team in China and the USA
If the selected American overseas warehouse has a dedicated team at home、 they will consider some problems that may be encountered after the goods are warehoused overseas and avoid it in advance. In this way、 the situation that the goods have been sent overseas but have encountered problems and are not easy to handle is reduced.
2. Warehouse provides insurance
The goods may be lost、 damaged、 delayed、 etc. in the operation process. Some overseas warehouses will introduce various types of insurance、 cargo damage insurance、 loss of parts insurance、 delay insurance、 etc. In case of problems in the warehouse、 these types of insurance will enable the seller to obtain reasonable claims without loss.
3. Scale and hardware facilities
The small American overseas warehouse has its own limitations. For some emergencies that may not be handled well and cause losses to the seller's interests、 it is recommended to choose an American overseas warehouse with complete hardware and software equipment and complete systems.
4. Independent taxation
The protection of tax and law is not only that your process is legal、 but also that of other customers in the overseas warehouse. In a common warehousing system、 only when everyone is legal can it be truly guaranteed.
5. Clear billing method
Not all American overseas positions are reliable. When choosing、 sellers should remember to look for those whose charges and prices are clear and unambiguous.
6. Provide a mature management system
A mature management system includes inventory、 sales order、 inventory and other data reports、 supports barrier free communication between customers、 goods、 overseas warehouses、 and logistics companies、 and provides accurate and timely information.
Consideration factor 1. Whether the expected delivery time of the goods is consistent with your own requirements
Although the Japanese special line is a good transport scheme for goods to be delivered directly from the current region to the destination、 the main means of transportation and specific driving routes used by the Japanese special line developed by different logistics enterprises are not identical. Therefore、 when choosing the special line in Japan、 enterprises need to confirm the expected delivery time of goods to the logistics enterprises that provide the route in advance. If they find the special line that takes a relatively long time to transport goods、 they should try to avoid it.
Consideration 2. Whether there will be additional costs after the goods are delivered to the destination
Because the charging standards and cooperation process rules of logistics enterprises corresponding to different Japanese special lines are not completely consistent、 some logistics enterprises even require the pickup person to pay a certain service fee after successfully delivering customers' goods to the destination. Therefore、 when choosing the Japanese special line、 the enterprise must understand the charging system from the logistics enterprise in advance、 including whether there will be additional charges during the delivery of goods or after the goods are delivered to the destination、 so as to avoid the impact on the process of goods delivery due to the lack of consensus on costs.
It is necessary for sellers of AliExpress to choose overseas warehouse. Why do you say so?
From the perspective of the markets covered by the AliExpress platform、 Russia and Brazil are the main markets for orders. About 60% of the overall order volume of the seller comes from Russia、 and 25% - 30% comes from Brazil or South America、 which happens to be the most difficult regions for customs clearance in South America.
Why choose overseas warehouse?
1. Overseas warehouse sellers can solve the problem of customs clearance of goods. Since it usually takes about a month to arrive in Russia by land transportation from China to Russia、 and also goes through strict customs inspection、 the logistics time is longer. Once the goods have problems、 the loss is not small.
2. Solve the problem of logistics timeliness. Some regions in Russia can achieve the same day or the next day、 which is totally different.
The seller should not want to save costs through overseas warehouse. The seller can sell several dollars more through overseas warehouse、 which is acceptable to customers. Instead、 the seller can achieve higher profits through overseas warehouse.
In addition、 the seller should be informed that the cost of domestic delivery and logistics may reach 500 yuan of freight、 while the cost and freight of 100 yuan of overseas warehouse will be saved a lot.
Therefore、 if the seller of AliExpress has the ability、 he must choose an overseas warehouse to deliver goods、 which can solve many problems for the seller
