Optimization / Drop Shipping

Drop shipping allows you to not keep orders in stock by transferring order and shipment details to either a manufacturer or wholesaler who ships the product directly to the customer.

There a number of ways to utilize effective drop shipping and optimizing techniques including set up of various warehouse and distribution points to allow your company to ship merchandise with either blind shipping or private label shipping.

Some of the most popular drop shipping activities in today’s economy involve online auction sites like ebay.com where retailers choose to not ship from a store location. Drop shipping is a common technique used to reduce costs in your supply chain even if you are not a retailer.

Private label drop shipping allows manufacturers to produce an item anywhere in the world and still have your company logo, labeling, and return address show in any location you want. China private label drop shipping is becoming very common.

Many US companies would rather have their own US address show versus the origin in China – thus private label drop shipping locations were created.

The main benefits of drop shipping are no upfront inventory to purchase and a positive cash flow cycle. A positive cash flow cycle is created because the seller is paid when the purchase is made. The second benefit is the reduction and elimination in duplication of efforts as only one warehouse needs to pick, pack, and ship the product thus reducing the cost in supply chain.
