Why is the shipping fee so high for wholesale on Alibaba 1688?

| 5Person Answer

阿里巴巴1688网批发的运费较高的原因是因为物流成本和维护成本较高。首先,大型打包物品的运输成本更高,且需要额外的保险费用;其次,这些平台需要有独立的仓库和物流团队来处理数量庞大的运输和配送,人员和设备的维护成本也相应较高。此外,可能还涉及到地区性运费的差异以及供应商自行设置运费的因素。对于消费者而言,可以通过比价、满减活动等方式来优化运费。同时,平台也可以通过与物流公司谈判达成更优惠的运费协议,降低运费成本。

The reason why the shipping fee on Alibaba 1688 is so high is because the logistics and maintenance costs are high. First, the shipping cost of large packaged items is higher and requires additional insurance costs; second, these platforms need to have independent warehouses and logistics teams to handle the huge amount of transportation and distribution, and the maintenance costs of personnel and equipment are correspondingly high. In addition, there may also be factors such as regional freight differences and suppliers setting their own freight rates. For consumers, they can optimize freight costs through price comparison, full-reduction activities, etc. At the same time, the platform can also negotiate with logistics companies to reach a more favorable freight agreement and reduce freight costs.

Because your product is overweight, and its delivery location is very far away, the freight is very high according to the delivery distance of the express delivery, and it can also give him a faster delivery time

It depends on what you are wholesale. Some products are heavy in themselves, so the freight is naturally expensive. For example, like food, a box of food often costs hundreds of dollars.

If the wholesale quantity is small, it is basically delivered by express delivery. Express delivery itself is not cheap. If you can find a carpooling logistics, you can use logistics, which may be cheaper. If the quantity is large, it will definitely be delivered by logistics, not express delivery, because the cost is too high.

1688 is a wholesale platform. The more you buy, the lower the shipping cost will be. Because 1688 puts it up according to the wholesale price, the corresponding shipping price will be high.

You can also find some merchants on 1688 who do one-piece delivery. If he cooperates with the express company, the express fee will be much lower, but he will also ask you for a delivery fee of about two to four yuan
