The UK is the world's third largest e-commerce market. With the development of cross-border e-commerce, choosing overseas warehouses has become an increasingly important link. At present, there are three types of overseas warehouses in the market, third-party overseas warehouses, platform overseas warehouses, and self-built overseas warehouses by foreign trade enterprises. For the comparison of self-operated overseas warehouses in the UK, let's tell you which one is better. The UK overseas warehouse has good warehouse relocation and rebranding services.
First introduce the three modes of UK overseas warehouses:
1. Platform overseas warehouse: self-operated warehouses of cross-border e-commerce platforms, such as Amazon. This method is mainly for Amazon sellers to store goods. For the first-leg transportation to the UK Amazon warehouse, the seller needs to contact the logistics company by himself, by sea or air, and then deliver it to the designated Amazon warehouse. For Amazon products, it can improve the ranking of products, and the delivery efficiency is very fast.
2. Third-party self-operated overseas warehouses: This is also a model that many sellers choose now. The warehouses established by major logistics companies in the UK. Sellers can transport their goods to overseas warehouses for storage through logistics companies; overseas warehouses will provide services such as drop shipping and transit, and the cost is relatively cheaper. Multimodal transport and transportation agency industries build overseas warehouses in a certain destination country, such as the UK overseas warehouse of My Times Beyond GBA, with a total area of 30,000 square meters in the UK self-operated warehouse. The business scope includes warehouse relocation and label change, original box transit, drop shipping, warehousing, product testing, return to China and Hong Kong, inventory clearance, card drawing and other customized needs.
3. Self-built overseas warehouses: overseas warehouses built by foreign trade enterprises in a certain destination country. This method is relatively rare at present. It is mainly some large companies that build overseas warehouses by themselves to provide warehousing, delivery and other services for their own products. Because it is managed by the enterprise itself, the operation is more flexible and controllable.
Let's talk about the comparison of self-operated overseas warehouses in the UK. Which one is better? The service of relocation and rebranding of overseas warehouses in the UK is good? Although the platform overseas warehouse experience and service are great, there are many restrictions, such as trouble in entering the warehouse, trouble in returning items, trouble in inventory handling, etc., and the cost is relatively high. Therefore, in order to reduce costs, most companies will choose third-party overseas warehouses as an alternative.
Because third-party overseas warehouses often charge lower prices than platform prices, they can maximize the profits of enterprises to a certain extent. In addition, third-party overseas warehouses have no sales platform restrictions, and through standardized processes and professional teams, they can improve the delivery speed of products and effectively save the logistics costs of merchants.
Self-built overseas warehouses also need to consider issues such as warehouse site selection, remote management, and overseas laws and regulations. All problems must be borne by themselves, which is still a headache.
Therefore, if the funds of the enterprise are not particularly abundant, it is recommended to choose a third-party overseas warehouse, and wait until the business matures and grows slowly, and then flexibly adjust according to needs.
