Planning international freight for e-commerce is hard. And in many cases, it can make the difference between profitability or losses.
Of the over 10,000 small businesses that use Freightos.com to compare, book, and manage freight, many are e-commerce sellers shipping directly to fulfilment centers, Fulfilled By Amazon (FBA) or otherwise.
Depending on the product, freight can account for a full 10% of the total cost of goods sold. But while product costs and Amazon fees are pretty transparent, freight costs fluctuate and take a long time to get.
This can make it hard for e-commerce sellers to find transparent and accurate cost estimates.
Amazon FBA Pricing
With data from thousands of weekly pricing points from freight forwarders, we’ve developed a weekly index of freight prices including for Less than Container Load (LCL), Full Container Load (FCL), and air cargo, from major export cities in southeast Asia to the most popular Amazon fulfilment centers in the US.
