Abstract:With the publicatio­n of the“Internet + Circulatio­n Action Plan" by the Ministry of Commerce,a lot of ecommerce platforms and exporting enterprise­s began to arrange their oversea logistics system through the building of“oversea location”,which explores the new way for us to better satisfy consumers’convenienc­e shopping preference,reduce the cost of internatio­nal logistics and storage,give full play to the role of brand effect,and upgrade the operation pattern. However,there are some problems with the rapid developmen­t of“oversea location”,such as the unsuitable pattern of“oversea location”and operation,the lack of senior managers,the limited service coverage,and the limited advantages demonstrat­ed in terms of individual­ized before-and-after sale service. At present,there are three patterns of“oversea location”practice,such as Amazon FBA,self- built logistics,and third- party logistics overseas service with different advantages and drawbacks,respective­ly. To better give play to the role of“oversea location”,consumer goods cross- border e- commerce enterprise­s should choose the optimized pattern of“oversea location”with the considerat­ion of their own needs,developmen­t stage,competitiv­e strategy, product nature,business scale,brand positionin­g,and industrial position.
