Amazon.com's orders are booming but limited restocking is in progress! French warehouse closure extended

Previously, Amazon’s US site restricted the entry of non-essential items into FBA warehouses, but now it has finally announced that it will allow more products to create shipments and send them to Amazon’s operations centers!

But I didn’t expect that the goods could be replenished, but it was “ limited quantity ”.

It is understood that Amazon is still continuing to give priority to the delivery of goods with higher demand, so shipments can be created at present, but some have quantity restrictions. These products will be marked with "limited replenishment".

According to feedback from many sellers, new products are limited to less than 50 pieces, and some old products are also restricted. But no matter what, being able to ship is a good thing!

According to official explanations, when Amazon calculates the number of items a seller sends, it takes into account the item's historical sales, current inventory levels, and available storage space in Amazon's operations centers . New items or items that have not sold recently can create shipments, but there will be quantity restrictions.

According to foreign media reports, Amazon said on Sunday that it would extend the closure of six French warehouses until at least April 22.

Subsequently, Amazon temporarily closed six warehouses in the country, which had a total of 10,000 employees. During the suspension of operations, Amazon will use the unemployment plan to pay wages to these employees. In addition, Amazon said that it has submitted compliance evidence and will appeal the court's ruling.

Affected by the epidemic, Amazon's orders have skyrocketed, but the health and safety of its warehouse workers have been threatened. As of April 19, more than 50 Amazon warehouses in the United States have reported cases of COVID-19 infection.

At present, the epidemic situation in the United States is very serious. The number of confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia exceeded 750,000 on the 19th, and the death toll exceeded 40,000.

Just when sellers were worrying about orders every day, last week many sellers posted screenshots of their explosive orders on their Moments and WeChat groups!

Maybe we have been locked up for too long, and suddenly the government gives us money, but we can’t go out. What can we do? We can only shop on Amazon at home to increase our happiness~

Most importantly, there are reports that 80% of people in the United States may be eligible for these subsidies. Currently, about 80 million Americans will receive subsidies, which will be directly deposited into personal accounts.

In addition, this "money distribution plan" will last for at least 6 months and will continue until the unemployment rate drops to the pre-epidemic level after the epidemic.

This means that cross-border sellers will still have the opportunity to have explosive sales in the future!
