Important Dates for FBA Sellers
Kev Seely | Updated: May 2nd, 2022 7:18:53 PM
Global supply chain issues, product stockouts, ongoing storage restrictions, pandemic-induced shifts in consumer behavior: the past few years have been a wild ride for FBA sellers. But to rise above the changes and unpredictabilities, it’s important to keep your eye on the prize with an effective inventory forecasting plan in place—one that ensures you have enough product available during peak shopping seasons and proactively reduces surpluses and stockouts throughout the year.
As you prepare your marketplace strategy for 2022, a key question to ask is: “When should I send in my inventory to ensure it’s received on time?” To make things easier on you, our logistics team created this calendar outlining the most important dates to know and when to send your inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers.
This should help keep your stock levels on track, but be sure to anticipate and accommodate seasonality or specific trends related to your product, too:
