For cross-border e-commerce sellers, in addition to product selection, the choice of logistics channels is also very important, and Philippine e-commerce is no exception. Therefore, logistics is one of the most concerned issues for all cross-border e-commerce sellers. When choosing logistics channels, you must consider cost and timeliness. Today we will analyze e-commerce logistics channels in the Philippines.
Similar to other regions in the Philippines, there are four main modes of cross-border logistics:
1. Parcel.
This model of parcel network coverage will be very high, the logistics channels will be relatively wide, and the price will be very low. However, the disadvantage is that the delivery speed is very slow and the loss rate is relatively high.
2. Commercial express delivery.
The well-known ones include ups, fedex, dhl, tnt, etc. The biggest feature of commercial express delivery is that the network is very timely, but their prices are generally very high.
In addition to the above, there are also domestic SF Express, ems, four links and one express, etc. These express companies have late international business layout and poor network coverage, but they have fast delivery speed and strong customs clearance capabilities.
3. Dedicated line logistics.
This model refers to a logistics model in which the cooperative company ships the goods and delivers them to the destination country. The scale effect can reduce costs and make prices lower, but the timeliness is slower than commercial express delivery.
4. Overseas warehousing.
Sellers deliver goods to the destination warehouse in advance and improve the timeliness of cross-border logistics through front-line transportation, warehouse management, local distribution and other processes. However, problems such as supply chain management and inventory control can also easily increase operating costs. .

At the same time, according to different peak sales seasons, we weigh the advantages and disadvantages of timeliness and cost, flexibly adjust the logistics model, and choose among different cross-border logistics providers.
