Unlock Faster Amazon Fulfillment with 2D Barcodes: How MyFBAPrep Enhances Your Supply Chain

What are 2D Barcodes?

2D barcodes, unlike traditional 1D barcodes, store significantly more data, including product details like ASIN, UPC, EAN, ISBN, or FNSKU, expiration dates, and quantities per box. These codes enable Amazon fulfillment center staff to access all critical shipment details instantly with a single scan. This eliminates the need for manual entry, reducing errors and saving time.

Why 2D Barcodes Matter for Your Amazon Business

At MyFBAPrep, we’ve integrated 2D barcode technology across our network to offer our clients unparalleled speed, accuracy, and reliability in the FBA prep process. Here’s how 2D barcodes are transforming the supply chain:

Accelerated Check-In at Amazon Fulfillment Centers

With all necessary information embedded, Amazon’s receiving process becomes faster and more efficient. Products are ready for sale sooner, which is essential for high-volume sellers managing large inventories.

Minimized Errors

Manual data entry can lead to discrepancies, delays, and penalties from Amazon. 2D barcodes ensure accurate, scannable data, significantly reducing these risks.

Cost Savings

Amazon charges fees for shipments arriving without box content information. Using 2D barcodes prevents these fees and speeds up inventory availability, leading to direct savings for your business.

Enhanced Flexibility

Our team’s use of 2D barcodes ensures seamless rerouting of shipments when necessary. For example, if an Amazon fulfillment center faces delays, 2D barcodes enable swift redirection of your inventory, keeping your supply chain moving smoothly.

How MyFBAPrep Utilizes 2D Barcodes Across Our Network

Our prep centers across the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and Europe implement 2D barcodes as a standard practice. By embedding complete shipment details into every package, we streamline the Amazon check-in process and mitigate risks associated with human error. This reliability serves as a safety net, ensuring that your inventory moves efficiently even during peak seasons or unexpected logistical challenges.

Your Competitive Advantage

By partnering with MyFBAPrep, you gain access to cutting-edge technology that enhances your supply chain performance. Whether you’re scaling quickly or refining your logistics strategy, our use of 2D barcodes ensures your Amazon inventory is processed faster and with fewer headaches.
