Since October, several logistics thunderstorms have occurred in the cross-border e-commerce circle, and all kinds of bad news have been spread to sellers. Another company recently exploded, leaving many sellers wondering if their goods were involved.
Lack of funds for freight forwarder, "crowd-funded redemption cabinet"
This week, a "logistics notice" caught the attention of the seller's friends. An international supply chain company ran out of money and "crowdfunded the foreclosure cabinet".
The company (Shenzhen XX International Supply Chain) indicated that there were 6 containers inspected at the back end of the company, and the processing cost of each container was 30W, so the company temporarily processed the first container and assumed 10W, and the rest amount was distributed to the corresponding KG of each customer. After paying the original freight, the average unit price of 14/KG was also required. As the company to find customers to borrow temporarily.
According to Aiqiza, the international supply chain company was founded in March 2021 and is a newly established company.
The company's announcement reads as follows:
The company's outrageous "pay to redeem" mode of operation has led many peers and sellers to deplore.
Freight forwarder said, close to the end of the year, thunder emerge constantly, the market is not the lowest price, only lower prices... When profits turn into losses, beware of thunderstorms.
Even some sellers directly said: "He calls this customers to borrow money, in my village this is called ready to roll the money and run!"
Freight forwarder mine incidents are frequent
This kind of thing happens every year, but this year seems to be more special. According to the investigation, the situation of the above companies is only a microcosm of the freight forwarding industry. Due to the break of the capital chain and other reasons, there are not a few cases of innocent freight forwarders and owners.
For example, after an employee of a logistics company quit his job, he used the title of his former company to resell the goods. Due to the time difference in payment, he took the payment and ran away, which resulted in several companies being involved and the amount was up to hundreds of thousands.
A company in Shanghai owes a lot of money to the shipping company because the capital chain is broken, resulting in the shipper can not pick up the goods, and a number of bills of lading are stuck.
Some companies were deceived by some people who sold the containers at a high price and a low price. As a result, a lot of money has not been settled after the containers arrived at the port. As a result, the containers could not be picked up.
A forwarder in Shenzhen made a false declaration, which led to the seizure of the goods after their arrival at the port, and finally contacted the owner to pay relevant fees before completing customs clearance and delivery.
In recent years, economic disputes between sellers and logistics companies have become one of the focal points of complaints, while the market is chaotic, most of them have no insurance, and the freight risks are quietly transferred to sellers. This is the core problem in the cross-border logistics market at present.
As cross-border logistics enters the gold rush period, many people follow suit and enter the freight forwarding industry. While the competition in the industry is intensifying, it also makes the freight forwarding industry become mixed.
But the victims of many sellers did not consider so much, their most concerned problem is "the freight forwarder ran away, who will pay for our losses?" ".
In this case, it is particularly important for sellers to polish their eyes and choose a suitable logistics company.
Once again, the seller also needs to remember one thing, do not covet small bargains, choose reliable forwarders and carriers, in order to ensure their own security. Of course, logistics companies also need to operate legally and honestly and take customers as the center in order to go further.
