Is it easy to be a freight forwarder on Shopee? What are the requirements to be a freight forwarder?

Speaking of Shopee freight forwarder, in fact, many service providers consider becoming one. However, before that, everyone is also worried about whether this freight forwarder is easy to do? Next, let’s talk about the content introduction of Shopee freight forwarder. If you want to know more, you can just follow us to take a look.

What are the requirements for being a freight forwarder?

In fact, whether it is easy to do or not depends entirely on the individual, but Shopee generally has great development potential, so the chances of doing well are definitely greater than the bad ones. Now let's talk about the conditions for being a freight forwarder:

1. Close to the logistics transit warehouse.

2. A system is needed to connect orders.

3. Be familiar with the platform’s delivery time.

4. Have experience in freight forwarding operations.

5. Be familiar with annual activities and arrange warehouse personnel and venue usage in advance.

The benefits of cloud warehouse delivery:

If you want to find a packager, you should consider the following factors:

1. The short distance allows for handling urgent matters.

2. System docking reduces the error rate.

3. The packages received before 19:00 will be delivered to the warehouse in time.

4. No inventory required, gifts can be placed on your behalf.

The shipping fee of 1 yuan per order is 50% lower than the industry price. Those who know how to calculate will choose Yuncang freight forwarding. The advantage of shipping orders on behalf of others is that it is only a few hundred meters away from the transit warehouse, which is convenient for delivery and urgent handling.

Most of the goods come from Alibaba and Taobao. Take Alibaba as an example:

Process of posting orders:

Cloud warehouse posting and shipping process:

1. After receiving the order, purchase from platforms such as pdd and 1688.

2. Leave the Xiayun warehouse address and send the goods to the warehouse.

3. Connect to the cloud warehouse for shipping and packaging and synchronize information.

4. After receiving the goods, the cloud warehouse will scan them for entry, and according to the Shopee and Lazada order information on the consignment, the goods will be checked, unpacked, closed, reinforced, packed, and labeled. After completion, they will be delivered to the corresponding logistics warehouse in Shenzhen on the same day.

Spontaneous process:

1. Place an order.

2. Connect the object by yourself.

3. Then pack and label the goods and send them to the warehouse or find someone to send them to the user.

Although both posting and user posting are three steps, if the seller posts, the Alibaba supplier sends the goods to the warehouse, and the goods are processed and sent to the warehouse, this process will incur two shipping costs. Shipping costs may be incurred when the goods are shipped to the warehouse, shipping costs may be incurred when the goods are processed and sent to the warehouse, and shipping costs may be incurred when the goods are sent from the warehouse to the user.

Not only will the seller incur more shipping costs, but they will also have to bear the storage costs, the labor costs of packing and labeling, and the delivery time will be delayed. This is not cost-effective when the profit is not high.

Therefore, whether it is easy to do freight forwarding with Shopee depends entirely on the ability of the merchant, but in general, the opportunities of freight forwarding are definitely greater than those of the platform. Therefore, as long as the merchant works hard, there will definitely be good prospects. However, before doing so, you also need to see whether you meet the requirements.
