1、 Why are more and more foreign traders using US overseas warehouses?
1. Significant improvement in logistics efficiency
Traditional direct shipping from China to the United States usually takes 7-15 days, while shipping through local warehouses in the United States can achieve delivery in as fast as 2-3 days, comparable to local e-commerce seller services.
2. Reduce platform chargeback rate and negative reviews
Slow logistics is a major disaster area for returns and negative reviews on platforms such as Amazon and eBay. Local shipping is not only fast, but also provides a more stable logistics experience and reduces unnecessary disputes.
3. Reduce the first leg and return costs
By first leg delivery to the US warehouse and then local delivery, logistics costs can be effectively diluted. And local return services also make after-sales processing more convenient and professional.
4. Support multi platform operation and brand building
Overseas warehouses in the United States usually support synchronous shipping of orders from multiple platforms (such as Amazon, Shopify, Walmart, etc.) and can provide labeling, order replacement, and other services, which helps to establish the DTC brand image.
2、 How can foreign traders choose a suitable overseas warehouse model?
Overseas warehouses can be roughly divided into two categories based on their business models:
Batch stocking local distribution: Suitable for sellers with a stable sales rhythm, it can achieve fast transactions and cost optimization.
One piece dropshipping: suitable for sellers who are just starting out or in the testing period of new products, with on-demand shipping and high flexibility.
Regardless of the mode, sellers should pay attention to the warehouse's geographical location, service type, system support capabilities, and whether it is equipped with local customer service and after-sales capabilities.
