Currently, many cross-border e-commerce companies often choose to establish overseas warehousing in order to make logistics more convenient during their daily store operations. You must know that a successful overseas warehouse can indeed help sellers solve some logistics problems. In this regard, let’s take a look at what are the influencing factors when establishing overseas warehousing?
1. Construction and operating costs.
The costs required to establish overseas warehousing in different countries and regions are also different. Because of differences in economic differences and price levels, everyone must select a location in advance. Generally, overseas Warehouses occupy a relatively large area, so they are often built in the suburbs, which can also save a certain amount of land costs. The costs required for later operations also need to be considered, such as labor costs, warehousing costs, equipment maintenance costs, etc.
2. Technical level.
As the saying goes, science and technology are the primary productive forces, and the main function of overseas warehouses is to store the goods of cross-border e-commerce sellers and enable short-distance logistics distribution, so the storage function is more important. To maximize this function, advanced warehousing technology and automated control systems are required, which will greatly affect the establishment of overseas warehouses.
3. Support from local policies.
The establishment of overseas warehousing and subsequent operations require support from the local government. If there are no relevant laws and regulations to support the development of overseas warehouses, they will surely be squeezed out by local companies in the future. With the support of the local government, many obstacles can be reduced. After all, a good political environment is more conducive to the long-term development of overseas warehouses. Therefore, during the preparation period, everyone needs to establish relevant government relations.
Of course, in addition to the influencing factors introduced above, there are many other things that everyone needs to pay attention to when establishing overseas warehousing. I will not explain them one by one here. There are more that you need to pay attention to. Think more and summarize during the actual planning process. You must know that the establishment of an overseas warehouse requires everyone to make sufficient preparations in the early stage, so that the actual operation process can be smoother.
