I want to ship from Alibaba direct to Amazon Warehouse in the UK (private label). There’s shipping options on Alibaba but I’m getting confused about whether I also need a freight forwarder (or similar) to handle shipping, import duties etc.
Do I need this and if so, what companies do you use?
You can compare the prices of our freight forwarder with those of your supplier, Collaborating with a freight forwarder will make communication more direct, and the freight forwarder will be more professional in this regard. Suppliers are more professional in their products. This is Mia from YCD Supply Chain,we are a professional shipping company located in Shenzhen.If you are interested, please let me know
You can quote using ddp. Direct delivery from China to destination. No customs clearance or taxes
What sort of volume are you moving? It is best to use a freight forwarder as they specialize with shipping so are more knowledgeable - I know a good UK forwarder with their own offices in China, please let me know if I can help
