Amazon Prime Day is a major event in the global e-commerce world. The 2024 Prime Day, held on July 16-17, once again broke sales records. For consumers, it's a great opportunity to snag desired items, but for sellers and logistics providers, it's a well-prepared "battle."
This article explores how logistics providers prepare for Prime Day, the key points of FBA logistics management, and the unique advantages of the eTowerOne logistics system in handling FBA and multi-warehouse management.
FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) is a service where sellers store their products in Amazon's warehouses, and Amazon handles picking, packing, and shipping.
During Prime Day, FBA logistics management faces significant challenges. Order volumes surge, increasing transportation and delivery pressure, while inventory management and timely restocking become crucial.
As one of the world’s largest annual e-commerce events, Prime Day preparation work by sellers and logistics providers is vital:
Stock Preparation and Inventory Management: Sellers need to predict popular products, ensure sufficient stock, and avoid sales losses due to stockouts.
Strategic Inventory Distribution: Due to high storage fees at Amazon warehouses, third-party logistics providers (3PL) often distribute goods in nearby warehouses based on sales data. This allows for quick transfers to FBA warehouses to meet regional order demands promptly.
Logistics Efficiency: Logistics providers improve storage and delivery capabilities by adding temporary warehouses, expanding the workforce, and optimizing delivery routes, ensuring timely delivery.
Choosing the Right Integrated Logistics Management System: This is essential for optimizing the logistics network, reducing transportation and storage costs, and improving delivery efficiency.
To tackle these challenges, sellers and logistics providers need to closely monitor inventory and restock promptly to avoid missed sales opportunities. Additionally, managing and coordinating inventory across different warehouse systems is a significant challenge for sellers and logistics providers who stock up in third-party warehouses.
