How to check Amazon warehouse capacity? How to choose an Amazon inventory warehouse?

When opening a store on Amazon, merchants must not only optimize the store, but also do a good job of inventory management, because inventory management capability is the core competitiveness of Amazon sellers. So how do you check the capacity of Amazon warehouses? Let us explain this aspect to you below.

You can go to Inventory - Inventory Planning - Performance - Storage Capacity - Replenishment Limit in the seller backend to see your current storage limit, potential storage limit and current storage usage.

How to choose an Amazon inventory warehouse?

Generally speaking, as long as our products are suitable for FBA, we recommend that you ship them through FBA. However, while using FBA, we can actually use a combination of delivery methods. For example, 70% of the products are shipped through FBA, 30% or 20% are shipped through overseas warehouses, and 0% or 10% are shipped through self-delivery. Managing inventory in such a diversified way can also help us reduce risks.

You should know that using FBA and overseas warehouses for shipment means that our products need to be shipped to the country of sale in advance. There are risks in early transportation, such as too much quantity or too small quantity. If the quantity is too large, and the combination of FBA and overseas warehouses is used, whether it is too much or too little, more flexible adjustments or replenishment can be made through overseas warehouses.

Amazon store logistics options:

Different logistics have different speeds and prices. Naturally, sellers also have to choose according to their product characteristics and sales time. For example:

Express delivery is faster than sea freight, but of course the volume is smaller than sea freight. It can be considered for ordinary replenishment of sellers. Of course, there are also many sellers who use self-delivery who will use this method.

Air transport has the fastest delivery time, but some products are limited, its price is the highest, and the quantity that can be transported each time is relatively small. Faced with this mode of transportation, we can transport some urgently needed, small and light products in this way.

Sea transportation is cheap but takes a long time. For this mode of transportation, sellers need to consider whether their products will deteriorate or deform due to moisture. Using sea transportation is suitable for general replenishment, but be aware of the time it takes.

Amazon merchants should choose the logistics suitable for the store according to the actual situation of the store, reduce logistics costs, improve transportation efficiency, and give consumers a good shopping experience! Well, today's sharing ends here. I hope this article can help you!
