For cross-border e-commerce sellers, how to effectively reduce costs and increase efficiency has always been a hot topic in the industry. The use of cross-border cloud warehouse dropshipping to provide corresponding warehousing and dropshipping services for yourself is one of the methods recognized by many cross-border e-commerce sellers. So can using cloud warehouse dropshipping really save money compared to shipping yourself?
If you want to get the final real answer yourself, we may wish to understand the cost of cloud warehouse storage dropshipping and the corresponding role to see what cost changes will be brought to cross-border e-commerce sellers.
If the cross-border e-commerce self-built small warehouse, the following costs may be incurred:
1: The cost of renting the space of the warehouse of self-built warehouses is usually rented warehouses, so there will be a fixed monthly expense here, and the final cost is actually determined according to the size and geographical location of the warehouse.
2: The cost of basic hardware and consumables in the warehouse, including the shelves of the warehouse, the computers and related product packaging consumables used daily and the cost of trailers or forklifts needed for some handling in the warehouse. This fee also requires calculating a certain depreciation expense to update the equipment in due course.
3: Water and electricity for self-built warehouses, and the cost of using network equipment. For example, in the hot summer, warehouse staff may need more electrical equipment (fans, air conditioners, etc.) to help improve the working environment temperature.
4: Staff costs, according to the actual work intensity to measure the salary expenses of self-built warehouse staff, and the corresponding welfare expenses. In general, it is also necessary to purchase professional ERP management software to assist in management.
5: The expenditure of fire protection and safety expenses of self-built warehouses, including security costs, purchase and update of fire fighting equipment, etc.
In summary, the cost of cross-border e-commerce self-opening cannot be simply understood as small expenses or low costs, and if there is no support from order volume, the above costs are very high. And as the number of orders increases, so will the expenses.
The emergence of cross-border e-commerce cloud warehouses greatly helps the initial transition of emerging foreign trade e-commerce sellers, because the cost of cross-border cloud warehouses is charged according to the number of orders, and the cost of less orders will be small.
