Warehouse in China + cargo consolidation — receiving, checking, and consolidating deliveries on a turnkey basis
What is consolidation and why is it needed?
Consolidation is the process of combining goods from different suppliers in a single warehouse, inspecting, labeling, and preparing them for shipment as a single batch.
This reduces logistics costs, minimizes the risk of defects, and ensures complete quality control before shipment.
What does consolidation offer?
- Reduced risk of mis-sorting and defects
- Savings on shipping
- Consistent quality throughout the entire batch
- Packaging and labeling control
Forward Union consolidates your shipments in our own warehouse in Yiwu, with inspection, photo inspection, and preparation for logistics.
What problems does consolidation solve?
- Different suppliers ship goods in different assemblies
- The lack of unified quality control leads to defects
- Different packaging leads to mixed product sorting and labeling errors
- Small batches increase shipping costs
- Chaotic logistics → risk of partial cargo loss
- It is impossible to obtain a single report for the entire batch
What does consolidation at the Forward Union warehouse include?
- Receiving goods from all suppliers
- Checking quantity, quality, and assemblies
- Photographic documentation of each delivery
- Labeling according to brand or marketplace requirements
- Repackaging and strengthening boxes
- Consolidation of goods into Single batch
- Storage before shipment
- Document preparation for logistics
Why a warehouse in China is a key stage in the supply chain
- Quality control occurs before shipment
- Defects, mis-sorting, and shortages can be avoided in advance
- Consolidation reduces logistics costs
- Brand-specific packaging can be prepared before shipment
- Enables pre-sale preparation for marketplaces
