What is a virtual overseas warehouse? Virtual overseas warehouse evaluation

The virtual overseas warehouse is a virtualized model of overseas warehouses, which is different from the traditional overseas warehouse model. It is a model between domestic direct delivery and overseas warehouse delivery. Its operation mode is: when the platform generates an order, the system prints the back-end transportation bill, affixes it, packs it and sends it to the overseas warehouse through various channels for unpacking and distribution.

Operation process

1. Chinese cross-border e-commerce sellers print the USPS waybill in batches in China and affix it to the outer box of each small item;

2. Pack these small items into a large package and ship them to the United States using international express (FedEx, DHL and UPS) solutions;

3. International express delivery (FedEx, DHL and UPS) is responsible for customs clearance in the United States and shipping the package to the virtual overseas warehouse in the United States;

4. The virtual overseas warehouse receives packages, splits large packages, and directly delivers the packages to consumers via domestic express delivery in the United States.

advantage

1. The shipping address of the virtual overseas warehouse is a US address, which shows local shipment, improves consumers' purchasing confidence and purchasing experience, increases sales, and increases profits.

2. Solve the troubles of returns and exchanges for cross-border e-commerce sellers and prevent buyers from maliciously returning or exchanging goods because the shipping address shows China.

3. No need to stock up, no financial pressure, and no inventory risk.

4. No storage fees, able to respond to foreign policy changes at any time, with high flexibility.

5. Support cross-border e-commerce sellers to solve subsequent service problems caused by their products in the United States. Products can be returned to virtual overseas warehouses to help sellers reduce losses and realize the possibility of secondary sales.

6. Increase the selling price. Since the origin of the goods is shown as the United States, cross-border e-commerce sellers can increase the selling price of the products to be consistent with the local selling price of products in the United States to increase profits.

shortcoming

1. There are customs clearance issues. Once they are found by the customs, if they are not handled properly, it is easy to lose the goods.

2. If discovered by the buyer, it will be reported to the platform.
