Amazon is the world’s largest e-commerce platform. Selling via FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) lets sellers use Amazon’s shipping, warehousing and customer service. So why do FBA sellers still need an outside warehouse in the US? Two critical reasons:
1. Losing rank when an account is suspended
Amazon accounts are always at risk of being suspended during sweeps. If the account cannot be reinstated, sellers must act fast to keep selling: remove inventory from Amazon to an outside warehouse, relabel it, and send it back to Amazon under a new account.
AWE Logistic Solutions receives removal orders, inspects quality and quantity, and relabels at a fair price – saving you production time and keeping your customers.
2. Losing inventory when an account is suspended
High-value inventory can get stuck in Amazon warehouses if you can no longer log in to create a removal. AWE can help contact Amazon to remove goods to our warehouse, but this takes time and is never 100% guaranteed.
That is why storing inventory at AWE and sending moderate quantities into Amazon is the safer approach: if an account is suspended, you always have stock ready for a new account.
