Your Amazon FBA

However, FBA also brings challenges such as timely deliveries to Amazon and high storage costs. As an experienced fulfillment service provider, Apiando provides support with digital processes such as pick-by-scan and modern conveyor technology to offer maximum precision and efficiency - at attractive prices.

Smart Returns Management

SignificantlyREDUCE REMITTANCE COSTS

With our professional FBA returns logistics, we process your Amazon returns quickly, reliably and efficiently, allowing you to significantly optimize your return costs. Our full service covers the entire process - from the receipt of goods to careful inspection and preparation through to re-storage or disposal. By using modern tools and digital process control, we minimize unnecessary returns in advance. Intact goods are immediately returned for sale after a quality-assured inspection, so that you reduce loss of value and lower storage costs. Damaged items, on the other hand, are disposed of professionally or, on request, documented and made available to you separately. This efficient returns management not only ensures significantly leaner logistics, but also sustainably increases customer satisfaction as your products are available again more quickly. In the long term, this solution enables better inventory planning, reduces unnecessary Amazon fees and helps to sustainably increase your sales in the FBA business thanks to the benefits of our services.

Specializing in SFP

PRIME SHIPPING
WITHOUT Amazon FBA

Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) is the ideal solution for products that aren’t well-suited for FBA—especially large, bulky, or low-margin items. Instead of paying Amazon’s high storage and shipping fees, you retain full control over your logistics while still meeting Prime requirements. With our optimized fulfillment processes, we enable you to offer Prime shipping from your own warehouse: fast, reliable, and scalable. This allows you to combine the reach and conversion benefits of Amazon Prime with more efficient cost structures—perfect for merchants with high-margin products.

Amazon & Pre-FBA FAQ

Pre-FBA refers to all logistics processes that take place before your merchandise is delivered to an Amazon fulfillment center. These include receiving, temporary storage, quality control, packaging, labeling, and on-time shipping to Amazon FBA. Pre-FBA is particularly important for Amazon sellers because it reduces storage costs, prevents delivery bottlenecks, and allows for significantly more efficient management of fulfillment processes.
A pre-FBA fulfillment service is particularly well-suited for Amazon sellers, vendors, and e-commerce companies that sell their products through Amazon and use Fulfillment by Amazon. Small and medium-sized businesses, in particular, benefit from this service because it allows them to outsource warehouse space, staffing costs, and operational logistics processes. This frees up more time for purchasing, marketing, product development, and growing their Amazon business.
Apiando’s Pre-FBA service covers the entire process of preparing your inventory for Amazon FBA. This includes receiving goods, secure temporary storage, quality inspection, order picking, packaging, labeling in accordance with Amazon guidelines, and reliable shipping to the respective Amazon fulfillment center. In addition, Apiando also offers value-added services, returns processing, and handling of FBA remissions upon request.
With Pre-FBA, you can avoid high warehousing costs and potential long-term storage fees on Amazon by first storing your inventory cost-effectively with Apiando. Only when restocking is needed at the Amazon fulfillment center are the goods prepared as needed and shipped to Amazon FBA. This allows you to manage your inventory flexibly, makes your supply chain more efficient, and keeps your capital from being tied up by unnecessary warehousing costs.
Our partnership with Apiando begins with a customized analysis of your requirements, products, and Amazon processes. Using modern interfaces and digital logistics processes, inventory, orders, and goods movements are managed transparently. The experienced Apiando team then takes over the operational handling—from receiving goods through storage and preparation to shipping to Amazon FBA.
Yes, Apiando handles the professional labeling and marking of your products in accordance with current Amazon FBA guidelines. This includes, among other things, product labels, shipping labels, and other required markings. This ensures that your products are prepared correctly and can be accepted smoothly at the Amazon fulfillment center.
Yes, Apiando also helps you process FBA returns and refunds. The service includes receiving, inspecting, documenting, and preparing the merchandise, as well as restocking it or, upon request, properly disposing of damaged items. This allows saleable products to be made available again more quickly and helps reduce unnecessary costs in the returns process.
Apiando offers you greater flexibility, transparent processes, and a cost-effective alternative to full-service warehousing with Amazon. Instead of keeping large quantities of merchandise in Amazon’s warehouse on a permanent basis, you can store your inventory temporarily with Apiando and have it shipped to Amazon FBA as needed. This reduces warehousing costs, improves replenishment planning, and provides a scalable logistics solution for your e-commerce growth.
Yes, Pre-FBA is particularly well-suited for companies that import goods internationally and then want to have them prepared for Amazon FBA. Apiando can integrate import processes with warehousing, quality control, repackaging, relabeling, and forwarding to Amazon. This creates an efficient door-to-door process from the manufacturer or supplier to the Amazon fulfillment center.
The cost of pre-FBA fulfillment depends on your products, quantities, warehousing requirements, services, and shipping processes. That’s why Apiando provides a customized quote tailored specifically to your business model and logistics needs. Feel free to contact us for a no-obligation consultation so we can work together to find the right pre-FBA solution for your Amazon business.
