As the world's largest cross-border e-commerce platform, what are Amazon's common delivery methods?
Amazon Logistics Commonly Used Methods of Delivery
There are currently three commonly used methods of Amazon logistics distribution: Amazon FBA, third-party overseas warehouses and self-delivery.
1. Amazon FBA delivery
Many Amazon sellers will give priority to FBA delivery, not only because FBA logistics delivery speed is fast and customers are more trustworthy, but more importantly, Amazon FBA can improve the listing ranking, and if the buyer gives a bad review due to logistics reasons, Amazon will help delete it. Of course, the disadvantage of Amazon FBA is that the overall cost is relatively high, the first-leg operation is also quite cumbersome, and the seller is required to do customs clearance. The buyer's return rate is likely to increase, thereby increasing the cost of inventory. If the seller does US FBA, the return address only supports the US
2. Third-party overseas warehouse
Compared with Amazon FBA, third-party overseas warehouses have lower costs, can shorten logistics time, and are conducive to developing local markets. It should be noted that third-party overseas warehouses are under great inventory pressure, face backlog risks, and have varying levels of management.
3. Self-delivery
The advantage of self-delivery is that it has higher operational flexibility and lower storage costs, which can reduce the cost of inventory pressure. However, the exposure and ranking of the listing are not as high as those given by Amazon FBA, and buyers are more likely to give bad reviews due to logistics. At the same time, self-delivery does not have the Prime logo, so it is difficult to attract the attention of Prime members.
Self-delivery is also divided into three categories: postal, express and dedicated line. Although the weight of postal parcels is limited, the price is cheaper; although the price of express delivery is relatively high, it can arrive quickly and has a strong timeliness; as for dedicated line logistics, it is not only efficient, but also safer, and has a higher rate of praise. Sellers should choose a self-delivery method that suits them based on the characteristics of the products they sell, the buyers' requirements for timeliness, their location, logistics budget, and peak and off-peak seasons.
Amazon's delivery is also part of the completion of the commodity transaction, so it is also crucial to choose different delivery methods in different regions. Everyone should consider it carefully.
