When it comes to warehousing, we have responded directly based on the needs of our customers.
Our customers frequently use manufacturers who are based in China and thus need to get goods from Asia to many other parts of the world. The conventional practice has been to immediately ship products from Chinese manufacturers to distribution centers in other countries, where they are held until the end-user requests one. It seems pretty simple, but it can cause a few problems, and plus - ShipLilly is anything but conventional.
Why Use Warehousing in China?
Important things to keep in mind…
- It is more costly to use warehouses in expensive transportation markets, such as the U.S.
- If there are mistakes with the order the shipment has to be sent all the way back to China to be fixed
- Manufacturers sometimes implement minimum purchase orders when shipping internationally
- Unneeded inventory just takes up “dead space” at domestic warehouses
- The lead time from manufacturer to end user makes just-in-time inventory difficult
This may seem like an overwhelming list of problems, but there’s good news: it can all be solved by using China warehouses with ShipLilly.
Save Money and Space
One of the best advantages of this warehouse system is that it simply costs less than storing goods domestically. Not only can you save money on real estate, but you can:
- Put the space in domestic warehouses to better use
- Place smaller and more frequent purchase orders
- Order just what you need and take it out just when you need it
Many Chinese manufacturers have limitations on the orders they will ship internationally, but by keeping transport at that part of the supply chain domestic, you harness more control over the quantity and arrangement of your goods.
Guarantee Speed and Flexibility
Most of our customers love it when we tell them we can be flexible in our ship dates and can shorten the time it takes to process an order. Logistics providers have long since faced the dilemma of figuring out how to shorten the time it takes for an item to ship from beginning to end. This warehousing system is our solution. By storing items in a Chinese warehouse:
- You eliminate the manufacturer from the equation and take control of the supply chain
- We put just-in-time inventory within your grasp
- We can ship your products at a moment’s notice
The speed and flexibility with which we can deliver goods to your end users may be just what you need to develop a loyal customer base and increase your business.
Establish Quality Control
Instead of shipping items directly to your home warehouse only to risk a mistake with the order, keep the products close to your supplier. That way if there are any issues you can easily ship the items back to the manufacturer, saving you time and money.
Implementing these measures puts quality controls in place early in the supply chain, minimizing the risk to your shipments as they travel internationally.
