亚马逊成立本地 AWD 团队，加速中国 FBA 发货

Amazon continues to accelerate FBA shipping from China. On May 24, Amazon announced the launch of the “2024 Amazon Export Cross-Border Logistics Accelerator Program” in China. This program includes a series of logistics innovations and initiatives to enhance localized services and better meet sellers’ cross-border logistics and warehousing needs. In 2023, Amazon Global Logistics (AGL) and the Amazon SEND program helped Chinese sellers export and ship hundreds of millions of items.

In terms of providing cross-border logistics services and products, AGL introduced Amazon Managed Placement (AMP) and Ship to AWD products, which will effectively help sellers improve warehouse management efficiency and reduce costs. AGL has also added the “Guangzhou-Foshan Integrated Pickup” service on top of existing pickup areas, providing more convenient pickup options for sellers in this region. They continue to expand new routes from China to more global Amazon sites, supporting sellers in global business expansion. Additionally, eight new large-item warehouses have been added on the U.S. West Coast to meet peak season shipping demands.

To simplify cross-border logistics supply chain management and improve cross-border logistics efficiency, Amazon is accelerating the customs clearance process at European destination ports. For example, after upgrading the clearance process for German and UK routes, the average time from goods arriving at the port to clearance has been reduced to about two days. They are enhancing the automation of customs clearance documents, increasing the visibility and transparency of import costs, and helping sellers optimize supply chain management.

In terms of global innovation and local initiatives to help sellers save on logistics costs, in 2024, AGL will launch more competitively priced products to help sellers reduce costs and increase efficiency. The Ship To AWD product offers a 15%–25% discount on AWD storage, handling, and transportation fees when warehousing through AGL.

To strengthen local team building and empower sellers at each stage, Amazon will continue to enhance existing local team resources to better understand seller needs and challenges. The Amazon Global Selling program has established a local Amazon warehousing distribution network support team in China to better respond to Chinese sellers’ needs for shipping to AWD.

Amazon China’s Vice President and Head of Amazon Global Logistics China stated: “AGL is always focused on and deeply understands the logistical challenges sellers face, launching logistics products that meet sellers’ demands. From one-stop pickup arrangements for the first mile, to a logistics network covering 12 major ports in China and over 400 routes, to improvements and enhancements in import clearance and innovations like Amazon Managed Placement (AMP) in warehousing and stocking, AGL continually optimizes and upgrades supply chain management products and services to better support Chinese sellers, ensuring their cross-border business development is worry-free.”
