Amazon FBA Prep
An Amazon FBA (Fulfilment by Amazon) prep service is a third-party service that helps sellers prepare their products for storage and shipping within the Amazon fulfilment network. When you use FBA, you send your products to an Amazon fulfilment centre, and Amazon takes care of the storage, packing, shipping, and customer service. However, before you can send your products to Amazon, they need to meet certain requirements and be prepared appropriately.
FBA prep services:
- Labelling: Ensuring that each product has the correct barcode labels that Amazon requires for tracking and identification.
- Packaging: Making sure that products are properly packaged according to Amazon’s guidelines to prevent damage during storage and shipping.
- Inspection: Checking products for quality control to ensure they meet Amazon’s standards and are ready for customer fulfilment.
- Bundling: Creating bundles or multi-packs as per Amazon’s requirements, if applicable to your products.
- Product Assembly: If your product requires assembly, a prep service may assist in putting together the different components.
- Storage: Providing temporary storage for your products before they are sent to an Amazon fulfilment centre.
