"Supply Chain Connect" is a project launched by Amazon for FBA sellers in January 2018, also known as Supply Chain Connect (SCC). It is a convenient new Amazon logistics distribution program designed to improve efficiency and strengthen control over incoming products, making it easier for sellers and suppliers to cooperate in delivering inventory directly to Amazon's operations centers.


Features

1. Sellers can send invitation emails to suppliers, who can then register to access the “Supply Chain Connect” portal and communicate directly with Amazon about their shipment requirements.

2. Sellers can choose to require suppliers to use logistics providers. For example, in the case of "Small parcel delivery (SPD) / I'm shipping individual boxes", sellers can choose logistics providers including: "Amazon Partnered Carrier", UPS and FedEx are both optional cooperative carriers, or choose "I'd like to use my own", other logistics providers.


Advantages

1. Supplier Portal: Supply Chain Connect provides your suppliers with a centralized portal where they can more accurately process your Amazon Logistics shipments.

2. Simplified process: Suppliers can enter packing information and download FBA product labels without having to communicate back and forth with sellers, shortening delivery time.

3. Better performance: There are tools to help suppliers complete shipments more accurately and better understand Amazon’s warehousing process.

4. Email Reminder: When your shipment is ready, an email reminder will be automatically sent to notify your supplier to process it.

Sellers' Voice

Sellers worry that the program will bring suppliers closer to Amazon and could ultimately lead to the platform cutting out sellers as unnecessary middlemen.
