With the continuous improvement and development of the cross-border e-commerce industry, more and more e-commerce companies have begun to get involved in cross-border operations. In this regard, it is very important to be able to complete delivery to overseas users in a timely manner to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of orders. Overseas warehouse business has become an important business tool for these cross-border sellers. There are three main operating models for setting up overseas warehouses in Germany.
The first is self-operated overseas warehouse. For e-commerce companies with a certain scale or good strength, sellers may choose to build their own overseas warehouses in Germany. The advantage of this is that all processes and functions can meet your own needs. Once the overseas warehouse is established, it will be very effective in expanding and promoting the business. However, setting up overseas warehouses in Germany requires a lot of costs, and companies with insufficient scale cannot easily try it.
The second type is Amazon’s overseas warehouse. Amazon has its own overseas warehouse system, namely FBA warehouse. For many e-commerce sellers who are established on the Amazon platform to complete cross-border e-commerce orders, choosing to cooperate with Amazon’s overseas warehouses is also a good way. Although the fees are higher and the stocking process is more troublesome, for many Amazon sellers, using Amazon’s overseas warehouses can be said to be a very good service.
The third type is third-party overseas warehouse. Most of the existing overseas warehouses are established and operated by third-party companies. The advantage of this type of third-party overseas warehouse is that they have a complete operating model and provide very professional services. They can also provide a series of additional value-added services, such as effective distribution, transshipment and dropshipping of goods, etc. For small-scale e-commerce companies or sellers, choosing a suitable third-party overseas warehouse to cooperate can enjoy a variety of services.
The above is the operation model for setting up overseas warehouses in Germany. When using overseas warehouses, sellers must also understand the various processes related to overseas warehouse transfer operations. Only in this way can we better select a suitable overseas warehouse and make more effective use of the service functions of overseas warehouses. As our country’s products are exported to all over the world, more and more cross-border orders are generated, giving domestic merchants a new way of thinking and opening up a broader world market.
