From Factory to Fulfilment: Sea containers from China via Rotterdam to Amazon

Sea freight from China to Europe plays a crucial role in the logistics chain for transport to an Amazon Fulfilment centre. Thousands of containers from China are processed via the port of Rotterdam every day. Many of these sea containers are destined for Amazon, which sets strict requirements before the goods are accepted by Amazon. Van Thiel Transport offers the entire process:

• Collecting goods from your supplier in China (EXW)
• Sea freight to Rotterdam
• Customs clearance
• Unloading your goods in our warehouses
• Sorting, labelling and palletising according to the strict Amazon requirements
• Transport to Amazon FBA throughout Europe.

A key part of this process is Warehousing, as the goods must always be placed according to Amazon conditions. Van Thiel transport can prepare your goods for transport to Amazon FBA via our warehouses.

Every year we handle many containers from China that are shipped to Europe by sea freight. Our extensive network allows us to collect the goods for you in China and then deliver them to any Amazon warehouse in Europe via the port of Rotterdam.

Netherlands important European gateway for China

China’s economy is one of the largest in the world and runs on exports of goods. China is one of the Netherlands’ largest trading partners. Of everything imported from China, about two-thirds leave the Netherlands unprocessed. For China, the Netherlands is an important gateway to the rest of Europe.

Incoterms: good agreements important for smooth global transport

Good arrangements with your Chinese business partner are essential for a smooth and secure transport. Van Thiel Transport helps you streamline documentation around your transport to and from China. The Incoterms are an important guide here. Incoterms, which stands for International Commercial Terms, are internationally defined agreements on the rights and obligations of buyers and sellers in international transport of goods. Incoterms define, for example, who arranges the transport and to where and who bears the risk in case of loss or damage.
