Amazon’s recent announcement regarding tight capacity at their West Coast facilities is a wake-up call for sellers as we approach the peak season. With increased demand leading to longer processing times and potential delays, it’s crucial to act swiftly! Here are some key takeaways from the situation: Rerouting Shipments: Amazon is redirecting shipments to alleviate pressure on overburdened facilities. As sellers, it's essential to stay agile and adapt your logistics strategy accordingly. Early Inventory Prep: The push for early inventory placement is more important than ever. If you haven't already moved your stock, prepare for potential delays this holiday season. Emergency Inventory: Consider maintaining emergency inventory at third-party logistics (3PL) locations on both coasts to mitigate risks associated with Amazon’s constraints. Cost vs. Efficiency: Larger sellers might lean towards full truckload providers, while smaller businesses could explore parcel carriers, even if it means higher transportation costs. At Izba, we’re here to help you navigate these challenges and optimize your supply chain strategy. Let’s ensure you’re prepared to meet consumer demand without disruption this peak season!
Amazon is experiencing tight capacity at some West Coast facilities due to high demand, the company said in an announcement to third-party sellers Thursday. https://lnkd.in/eZmfE5fm #supplychain #ecommerce
