Announcement reposted from Amazon United States:
To stay in stock this peak season and guarantee your products are Prime badge-ready during holiday deal events, your FBA inventory must arrive at US fulfillment centers by the following dates:
- Prime Big Deal Days: September 13
- Black Friday and Cyber Monday: October 19
To help optimize your holiday inventory strategy, you can use Amazon Warehousing and Distribution (AWD) as a low-cost bulk storage solution with pay-as-you-go pricing. With AWD, we’ll automatically replenish your products to fulfillment centers based on demand signals to help you maintain the right FBA inventory levels. There are no additional fees for AWD during peak times, and inventory that’s auto-replenished from AWD doesn’t count toward your FBA capacity limits.
For Black Friday and Cyber Monday specifically, your inventory must arrive at AWD distribution centers by October 19. You can also use AWD to stay in stock for Prime Big Deal Days. Just be sure your inventory arrives by September 13 per FBA guidelines for that deal event.
Additionally, for a limited time you’ll receive 25% off the base rate for AWD storage fees and 15% off the base rate for both AWD processing and transportation fees. Discounts will automatically appear on your monthly fee report in Seller Central. Terms and conditions apply.
