FAQ Category: Sofeast 3PL (Warehousing & Fulfillment)

What should our suppliers know, before sending their goods to your FTZ facility?

There are 2 cases.

Materials coming from outside mainland China

These MUST be sent by following these rules:

  • Do no use express courier.
  • Use only air freight (to Shenzhen or HK airport) or ocean freight (to HK port only).

Materials coming from mainland China

These have to be exported by your supplier (it means your supplier needs to complete all export formalities) and to be delivered FOB Pingshan.

Do you have MOQs for 3PL solutions?

We try to be flexible on MOQs as we work with businesses that place both small and large orders.

For kitting and assembly we have an MOQ of at least 500 pieces per batch of products. If under 500pcs, we have an extra fixed cost of $300 for setup.

For dropshipping we have an MOQ of 500pcs per batch at least for dropshipping projects.

For co-packing, product repair and rework, and fulfillment, if an order is less than 1,000 pieces it’s unlikely we’ll be able to take this job.
