A compilation of businesses that specialize in readying products for sale on Amazon’s Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) platform. These businesses provide services such as inspection, labeling, packaging, and shipping to Amazon fulfillment centers. For example, a provider on such a register might offer to receive bulk inventory, inspect each unit for defects, apply Amazon-required labels, and package the items according to Amazon’s specifications before forwarding them to the designated warehouse.
Such resources are critical for sellers who lack the time, space, or expertise to handle the preparation process themselves. Utilizing these resources can save significant time and reduce errors, thereby improving efficiency and profitability. Historically, sellers managed preparation internally, but the increasing complexity of Amazon’s requirements and the growth of e-commerce have led to the proliferation of these specialized services.
