Ozon platform’s logistics policy and delivery method analysis

Self-delivery

Ozon allows sellers to ship goods directly to Russian buyers. Sellers can choose their own logistics providers and query the logistics providers supported by Ozon through the backend, including Russia’s largest logistics company CDEK. Depending on the logistics method, the estimated delivery time is 5 days for stocking, 9 days for arrival at the freight forwarding warehouse, 8-10 days for air transport, and 19-25 days for land transport. In the self-delivery mode, sellers can choose international small parcels, and then contact the corresponding international logistics provider to mail the products to their domestic collection points.

Delivery from overseas warehouse

Under the overseas warehouse delivery method, sellers need to find reliable overseas warehouse service providers to cooperate with to deliver goods to overseas warehouses. When a buyer places an order, the overseas warehouse will directly deliver the goods to the buyer, which is relatively faster. However, sellers need to pay attention to inventory control to avoid a backlog of goods.

Transshipment service

For sellers who are inconvenient to find their own logistics providers or cooperate with overseas warehouses, Ozon also provides transshipment services. Sellers can choose to ship the goods to a designated transshipment warehouse first, and then the transshipment warehouse will deliver them to Russian buyers on their behalf. This method is particularly convenient for new sellers who have just entered the Russian market and can reduce logistics worries and risks.

Domestic shipment in Russia

Ozon also supports the establishment of warehouses in Russia for delivery, which can greatly shorten the delivery time and provide faster delivery services. For sellers with large sales volume in the Russian market, this method can better meet customer needs and improve user experience.

Logistics agency operation service

For those sellers who have weak logistics capabilities or are unwilling to pay too much attention to logistics issues, Ozon provides logistics operation services. In this model, sellers can entrust the Ozon platform’s logistics team to be responsible for the logistics arrangements of the goods, and they will handle shipping, distribution and other logistics matters. The seller only needs to focus on sales and customer service.

Conclusion

Through the above steps, merchants can effectively set up Ozon’s logistics methods and understand the characteristics of different shipping methods in order to better serve the Russian market. Whether it is self-shipping or shipping from overseas warehouses, Ozon provides flexible solutions to meet the needs of different sellers. I hope this article can provide useful guidance for merchants to conduct overseas business on the Ozon platform.
