Multiple Amazon warehouses are out of stock! The appointment has arrived in 3 weeks?

Recently, Amazon's global logistics network is facing a series of severe challenges. Many warehouses have experienced warehouse closures, especially in the United States. Due to the surge in imports from the United States, the backlog of goods in warehouses has become increasingly serious.

At the same time, U.S. shipping prices have been soaring, which has further aggravated the dilemma of Amazon warehouse liquidation, making it difficult to effectively alleviate the liquidation situation in the short term.

Recently, many Amazon warehouses have been out of stock, and the speed of goods being put on the shelves has been slowed down and the time of warehousing has been delayed. Some sellers have been out of stock as a result.

This situation is mainly affected by the Amazon Prime Day event in July, which has caused the congestion problem in the warehouse to continue to worsen. It is expected that the delivery time and estimated delivery time will be affected to varying degrees in the near future.

These liquidated warehouses include: GYR2, GYR3, LGB8, VGT2, SBD1, SBD2, SMF3, SMF6, FTW1, MDW2, FTN1, IAH3, IND9 and more than ten warehouses. These liquidated warehouses will have pushbacks and rejections. situation, and the rejection rate of some warehouses is very high, and there are many reschedulings. In addition to the above warehouses being liquidated, CLT2, RDU2, ORF2, ABE8, SWF2 and TEB9 warehouses also frequently postponed or deleted appointments, which naturally affected the delivery time.

It is worth mentioning that the situation of LGB8 in these warehouses that have been liquidated is worrying. The earliest date currently is around 6/22. It is reported that trucks are lined up for three blocks at the entrance of the warehouse, and it is not yet certain whether they can successfully receive and unload the goods.

During this period, Amazon will transfer the designated warehouses for the goods delivered to the LGB8 warehouse to the LAX9 warehouse. This is because the warehouse queues are very long, and many cars of goods cannot be unloaded. This is an internal warehouse adjustment behavior of Amazon's warehouse explosion, and the customer backend will not Got warned.

Amazon's distribution centers are currently under tremendous pressure. If not handled in time, this year's Prime Day sales for sellers may even be affected. Logistics chaos will undoubtedly make it difficult for sellers to operate, especially during major sales. Sellers should pay close attention to market dynamics and plan logistics strategies in advance to cope with challenges.

Now, it’s the peak season to stock up. However, on the one hand, Amazon's warehouses are experiencing frequent warehouse liquidations, cancellations, and postponements. Sellers face many uncertainties from delivery to shelves, and the risk of out-of-stocks increases.

On the other hand, the inspection rate is currently rising. If the seller has problems such as misclassification, low declaration, vague description, counterfeit products, anti-dumping, and infringement of intellectual property rights, the goods may be detained by customs and cannot enter the country smoothly.

Faced with various uncertain factors, as a seller, you must plan in advance and be prepared to ship goods in advance. In addition to relying on Amazon's FBA service, actively consider other third-party logistics services or overseas warehouse service providers to effectively spread risks and ensure rapid replenishment in the face of uncertainty, thereby making inventory management more flexible and efficient.
