The model allows sellers to list products once, stage inventory at the country of origin and fulfill orders globally without managing cross-border logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the program, sellers ship bulk inventory to Amazon\u2019s Shenzhen distribution center. Amazon then manages customs clearance, international freight, and delivery into U.S. fulfillment centers through its Amazon Global Logistics network. When paired with that service, replenishment to U.S. facilities can be completed up to seven days faster than current alternatives, the company said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sellers can choose between an automated replenishment option that uses artificial intelligence to manage inventory levels or a manual approach, while Amazon manages the logistics in both cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The offering reflects a broader shift in how goods move from factory to customer. Amazon is combining origin warehousing, international freight, customs brokerage, and domestic fulfillment into a single managed service, reducing the cost and complexity of cross-border commerce for sellers manufacturing in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For wholesale distributors, the implications are direct. Companies that source from Chinese manufacturers and stock inventory in U.S. facilities now face competition from sellers able to hold the same goods in Shenzhen at lower cost and replenish U.S. demand through Amazon\u2019s network on a faster cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those dynamic compresses a traditional advantage for distributors \u2014 domestic inventory positioning and rapid delivery \u2014 by lowering both the cost and operational barriers for sellers to bypass the channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tariffs remain a complicated factor but do not eliminate the shift. Section 301 duties and potential additional trade measures raise the landed cost of Chinese goods regardless of where inventory is held. However, Amazon\u2019s integrated logistics model, which bundles freight, customs, and fulfillment, can reduce per-unit costs compared with distributors managing those functions through multiple providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The automated replenishment capability adds further pressure. By managing inventory levels across a China-to-U.S. pipeline, Amazon enables sellers to maintain in-stock positions without the forecasting and purchasing infrastructure distributors have traditionally developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Amazon said Global Warehousing and Distribution is an initial step in a broader global selling framework. The company\u2019s vision \u2014 list once, stage inventory at origin and sell globally \u2014 reduces the need for domestic distribution in product categories heavily sourced from China, including industrial consumables, safety products, tools, and fasteners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service does not displace wholesale distribution in the near term. But it extends Amazon\u2019s logistics network closer to the manufacturing base, lowers the cost threshold for direct selling, and adds an automated inventory layer that simplifies operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For distributors competing on price, availability and supply chain efficiency, Amazon is increasing competitive pressure across all three \u2014 starting at the point of origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/distributionstrategy.com\/subscribe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Do not miss any content from Distribution Strategy Group.
