If you’re like most sellers, you’ve seen it: Amazon returns piling up. Unsellable units clogging storage. Inventory stranded after policy changes. That’s where FBA removal and re-prep services come in. Whether you’re dealing with Grade A returns, damaged packaging, or FBA stranded inventory, here’s how to turn that warehouse headache back into revenue. What Is...
When you’re scaling a brand into retail shelves or wholesale accounts, the fulfillment game changes dramatically. Direct-to-consumer (DTC) fulfillment is one thing — but B2B and retail requires precision, compliance, and experience. It’s not just about getting boxes out the door. It’s about meeting big-box routing guides, mastering ASN workflows, and shipping in a way...
Direct-to-consumer (DTC) fulfillment has become the backbone of every digitally native brand that wants to control the customer experience, scale without borders, and compete with Amazon’s shipping speed. But as demand surges, fulfillment complexity increases—and not every 3PL is built for the expectations of DTC buyers. In this post, we’ll break down what DTC fulfillment...
Co-packing (short for contract packaging) is the process of outsourcing your product packaging to a third party — typically a 3PL partner like MyFBAPrep. It includes everything from: Bundling multiple SKUs into a single sellable unit Applying FNSKU or UPC labels Adding marketing inserts Assembling kits or multi-packs Prepping temperature-sensitive goods for cold chain delivery...

Typical cold chain environments include: Ambient: 60–75°F (room temp products like protein bars or vitamins) Refrigerated: 34–55°F (perishables, skincare, meal kits) Frozen: 0°F and below (ice cream,...
Let’s get real: Amazon’s Seller Fulfilled Prime (SFP) isn’t just another shipping program. SFP is a logistics trial by fire. 2-day nationwide delivery required Same-day pick, pack, and ship expectations Strict SLA metrics, order cutoffs, and OTDR protections Only 3 trial attempts per year (starting June 2025) Most 3PLs say they can support SFP, but...
Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM) means you fulfill Amazon orders yourself—or through a partner—rather than using Amazon’s FBA (Fulfilled by Amazon) program. You store the inventory. You ship the orders. You handle the experience. And you keep the control—and often, more margin. For years, FBM was seen as the “backup plan” to FBA. But that narrative is...
Nothing says business growth quite like going global. Focusing on your local market can still lead to success, but expanding into other countries demonstrates that your business has achieved more than you originally set out to do. It means there’s real demand for what you offer, and people from different parts of the world are...
If you’re importing products for Amazon FBA or DTC fulfillment, you’ll encounter two key logistics partners: freight forwarders and customs brokers. While they both play essential roles in getting your goods across borders, their functions are distinctly different. Confusing the two—or working without one—can lead to customs delays, compliance issues, and unexpected costs. In this...
Today, sustainability is less a trend and more a necessity. Customers, investors, and employees expect brands to operate responsibly and minimize their environmental impact. From reducing carbon footprint to adopting greener practices, sustainability has become a core part of how companies thrive in the modern world. But integrating these initiatives into every aspect of a...
Online transactions make up 20% of retail sales. Even with the eCommerce boom though, physical store sales are still on the rise. This perfectly showcases how diverse shopping habits are. Some customers love the convenience of online shopping, while others enjoy the in-store experience. One thing is clear though: Customers expect seamless shopping no matter...
