The global economy is experiencing unprecedented trade growth, with cross-border e-commerce emerging as a vital channel for Chinese manufacturers to access international markets. As more Made-in-China products enter global consumer markets through e-commerce platforms, Amazon sellers face a critical decision: FBA or overseas warehouses?
Choosing the right fulfillment solution directly impacts:
● Store performance metrics
● Customer satisfaction levels
● Return rates (especially critical with Amazon's new "High Return Rate" labeling system)
● Overall profitability
How It Works:
● Sellers ship inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers
● Amazon handles storage, order processing, shipping, and returns
● Includes customer service support
Key Advantages:
✔ Global Network: Access to 200+ fulfillment centers worldwide
✔ Prime Eligibility: Faster delivery options for customers
✔ Buy Box Advantage: Increased visibility and conversion rates
✔ Streamlined Operations: Reduced seller workload
Important Considerations:
⚠ Storage fees increase significantly after 6 months
⚠ No customs clearance support provided
⚠ English-only customer service interface
How It Works:
● Bulk shipments to third-party warehouses in target markets
● Local fulfillment when orders are placed
● Often used in combination with FBA for inventory replenishment
Key Advantages:
✔ Cost Efficiency: Lower long-term storage costs
✔ Faster Replenishment: Quick restocking of FBA inventory
✔ Local Presence: Improved conversion rates with local shipping
✔ Scalability: Better for high-volume sellers
Important Considerations:
⚠ Requires international shipping coordination
⚠ Quality of warehouse management varies
⚠ Additional customs and duties considerations
| Feature | Amazon FBA | Overseas Warehouse |
|---|---|---|
| Storage Costs | Low first 6 months | Consistently competitive |
| Delivery Speed | 1-2 days (Prime) | 2-5 days |
| Customs Support | Not provided | Varies by provider |
| Return Handling | Amazon manages | Seller manages |
| Best For | Low-price, fast-moving items | High-volume, large items |
Pro Tip: Many successful sellers use a hybrid approach - maintaining FBA inventory for Prime eligibility while using overseas warehouses for bulk storage and replenishment.
