What to do if Amazon warehouse capacity is insufficient? How to deal with it?

When opening a store on Amazon, some merchants find that their warehouse capacity is insufficient. At this time, they don’t know how to increase the capacity or clear the capacity inside. At this time, it actually depends on the situation. There are many solutions to insufficient capacity. Let’s introduce them in detail below.

What to do if Amazon warehouse capacity is insufficient?

1. Request for a position increase

Amazon reviews storage limits every month. If you have sold 8% or more of your inventory each week for the past 9 weeks, you are eligible for an increase. Sellers can also contact Amazon Seller Support to request an increase.

2. Increase sales rate

Amazon will assess the sales rate of your inventory products within 90 days. The higher the sales capacity and order level, the higher the sales rate, and the lower the inventory limit.

3. Deal with inventory backlog

Dealing with inventory backlogs and clearing inventory during seasonal changes is an important part of inventory management. Sellers can choose to use official clearance promotion tools to effectively help reduce inventory pressure. For example, a limited-time (usually 2 weeks) promotional offer on the Outlet page is a promotional means of clearing backlogs, which can help sellers effectively increase exposure and quickly clear backlogs!

Sellers can also use the inventory management tools provided by Amazon Logistics (FBA) to clean up redundant and idle inventory in a timely manner, and then recover the value of goods, freeing up space for new and popular products to enter the warehouse during the peak season. For example, Amazon Logistics' bulk clearance plan can quickly process inventory that was originally planned to be abandoned or destroyed. As long as an order is successfully created, storage capacity can be released immediately, and the value of goods can be recovered at a price of 5%-20%.

When the Amazon warehouse capacity is insufficient, you need to learn how to clear the capacity. Generally, merchants are required to regularly clear inventory, such as redundant inventory, idle inventory, etc., and then plan well when entering the warehouse, do not occupy inventory at will, etc., so that the inventory is basically sufficient.
