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.

International maritime transport is an important and most important mode of transport in international cargo transport. It mainly transports goods by sea through ships and other means of transport. For example、 international shipping is classified by ship type、 including general cargo ships、 bulk cargo ships、 liquid chemical ships、 container ships、 etc.、 and cargo types、 including mineral sand ships、 coal ships、 grain ships、 oil tankers、 container ships、 etc In a word、 international shipping is an indispensable part of international trade

Basic mode of overseas warehouse: for the first time、 you can prepare goods in small batches to the overseas warehouse、 and then prepare goods according to the sales volume of the platform. The overseas warehouse has an inventory pre-warning function、 which can be distinguished according to different selling levels.

The operation process of overseas warehouse is generally divided into three steps:

First、 the first journey (the domestic customs clearance reserve goods are delivered to overseas warehouses by sea、 air and express).

Second、 warehousing (cross-border e-commerce enterprises carry out remote filing of goods SKU in the system of overseas warehouses、 and other goods are scanned for warehousing and put on the shelf after warehousing).

Third、 delivery at the end of the delivery (cross-border e-commerce sellers place orders in the system of the overseas warehouse in real time after they have orders、 the overseas warehouse issues goods according to the seller's order information、 arranges local postal or express delivery、 and uploads the order number in the system of the overseas warehouse in real time). According to the operation process of Todropshipping overseas warehouse、 there are warehousing fees for warehousing、 and order processing fees and delivery fees for final delivery. If multiple orders are merged into one receiving address、 there are consolidation fees and container change fees.

The charging standard of international express depends on the actual weight and volume weight. Calculation method of package volume and weight: (length x width x height) (cm) ÷ 5000. Note that the unit of length、 width and height is cm. If the cargo of international express package is less than 0.5 kg、 it will be charged as 0.5 kg. Goods below 21Kg (46.3Ib) are charged as small goods、 the first weight and the second weight. The charging unit is 0.5Kg (1.1Ib)、 and goods above 21Kg are charged as large goods.

FBA first service and Amazon are not responsible for customs clearance and the service of sending goods from China to Amazon warehouse. FBA first service refers to the service of transporting goods from China to Amazon warehouse. There are special services to meet this demand. For example、 Todropshipping has services in South China and East China. FBA should have four delivery methods in the first journey and on the market:

1. Direct delivery; DHL、 UPS、 Fedex and other products are generally priced at more than 20kg. They are fast and suitable for urgent replenishment. In addition、 express delivery is free of reservation warehousing、 but it should be noted that Amazon does not act as the main body of customs clearance、 is not responsible for customs clearance and tax payment、 and must do a good job of declaration and tariff advance and prepare local customs clearance importers in advance. In general、 Todropshipping can provide tax number borrowing.

2. FBA Air+Dispatch: It is transported to the local place by air and then sent to the Amazon warehouse by local express. It is fast and slightly slower than direct delivery. Express delivery is very convenient for warehousing without reservation. At present、 the air+pie on the market is generally double tax payment、 does not need to pay customs duties in advance、 and the cost is also very cheap、 about 20-30 RMB/kg.

3. FBA sea transportation first journey: sea transportation+local customs clearance+destination country delivery、 with a slightly longer time limit. The full price does not include tax. It is almost 1000 yuan per square meter. The United States and Britain are cheaper、 while Canada is more expensive. The first voyage of this kind of sea transportation is long and usually takes more than a month. At that time、 it was a trailer that was sent to Amazon. It usually requires warehousing reservation. The operation is more troublesome than express delivery. However、 the price is cheap. If you calculate it as 1CBM=167kg、 it is just a few yuan and 1kg、 which is 1kg cheaper than the express delivery. The cost of 10 cases of 20kg goods and express delivery is about 6000、 but it is estimated that the cost of sea transportation is less than 2000. However、 it has a long time limit and is suitable for non urgent replenishment.

4. Overseas warehouse allocation: put goods in Todropshipping overseas warehouse. One can be used as Amazon FBA. In addition、 it can sell goods from overseas warehouses on other platforms. There are many options for transferring goods from overseas warehouses to Amazon. You can choose express delivery without reservation or trailer delivery. The method is flexible and simple. It can also be replenished more frequently and the replenishment time is short. In addition、 the customs clearance problem has been solved before the goods arrive at the warehouse、 and there is no big problem when the goods are sent from the warehouse to Amazon. In particular、 Amazon FBA will raise prices next year、 and it will also try other platforms、 such as self built platforms、 wish、 and many new platforms.
