What is Amazon FBA? 

Amazon FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) is a popular service offered by Amazon, one of the services under amazon logistics, that allows e-commerce businesses to outsource their order fulfillment and storage. By using FBA, businesses can take advantage of Amazon’s vast network of fulfillment centers to store, pick, pack, and ship their products to customers. This reduces the time and effort required to manage fulfillment operations, allowing businesses to focus on other aspects of their operations. 

It allows businesses to store their products in Amazon’s fulfillment centers. When a customer places an order, Amazon picks, packs, and ships the product on behalf of the business. Amazon also handles customer service and returns, making it a comprehensive fulfillment solution for e-commerce businesses. Author Name:Tiffany Lee – Marketing Analyst at FreightAmigo

Drawbacks of FBA 

1. FBA fees: A downside to using FBA is that the FBA fees can be pretty costly. Depending on the size and weight of your product, the fees to fulfill your order are roughly 30-40% of your product price. You need to calculate the fees before selling a product to determine the profitability. 
2. FBA storage fees. On top of FBA fees, Amazon also charges you to keep your items stored in their fulfillment centers. There are two types of storage fees: Monthly and and FBA aged inventory surcharge. Properly managing your inventory will help you avoid the aged inventory surcharges, as they can become very expensive. 
3. Inventory capacity limits. Amazon has implemented an FBA storage capacity system to prevent sellers from overstocking their inventory. The amount you are allowed to send in depends on your sales history and IPI score. 
4. Higher return rates: While this is very convenient for customers, the ease of returning items on Amazon may cause you to experience higher return rates compared to other marketplaces.
