About us
Our sister company UFM Underwear has been Amazon Fulfilled by Merchant {FBM} plus our own website since its founding using 3rd party fulfillment. We became increasingly displeased with the service level and the cost of our 3rd party fulfillment vendors. We changed vendors a couple of times. We implemented Amazon Seller Fulfilled Prime in 2019 and things got much worse. After being suspended for the 5th time, all the hours and stress of crisis managment, we decided we could do better.
In early 2020, we opened our own warehouse with state of the art technology and immediately our Seller Fulfilled Prime performance went from POOR to PERFECT. This operational exellence obviously carried over to our Non-Amazon business as well.
We have experience with Amazon, Magento, Shopify, Woo Commerce, Walmart, Ebay and Etsy integrations but have ability to support others as well, ask us.

FBA vs FBM
FBM is Fulfillment by Merchant, seller receives the order, fulfills the order and transmits shipping information back to Amazon.
FBA is Fulfillment by Amazon, seller ships product to the Amazon fulfillment center. Amazon ships your products to the customer.
When does FBA vs FBM. make the most sense?
Total Units per order 2 or more
Amazon FBA fees multiply with each additional unit making it quite expensive for 2 or more units/order. The cost of the second (or more) unit fulfillment and shipping costs for FBM is usually small.
Light Package weight
- Less than 16 oz for USPS First Class or
- Less than 650 cubic in for 2 Day
FBA Inventory Limits/ Receiving issues
- Avoid Inventory Limits – We are all aware of the multitude of issues FBA sellers have experienced with Amazon receiving limitations and severe delays resulting in stock outs resulting in the loss of organic BSR. When you are forced put overage inventory into a 3PL and drip feed FBA, these additional hidden costs become significant. Some have solved this by hybriding both FBA and FBM.
- Avoid Extreme Amazon Receiving Delays and issues.
Superior Delivery is Important – Actual 2 Day delivery
We have all seen that FBA Prime delivery does not mean 2 day any longer. We have seen promised deliveries of a week or more in a Supposed Prime item. Our FedEx 2Day delivery is actually 2 business day service.
Seller Fulfilled Prime
Unfortunately Amazon poison pilled Seller Fulfilled Prime in Feb 2021 imposing impractical requirements that FBA itself cannot meet. FBM/SFP sellers far outperformed FBA delivery in 2020. As Amazon comes under Anti-trust pressure, these is some hope they will be required to roll back these changes.
Other reasons to use FBM (Fulfill by Merchant)
DIVERSIFY-Multi-Channel/ Website single inventory
Ship both Amazon, Walmart, Etsy, Ebay, Shopify, Woo, Magento …. (Multi-Channel) orders from a single inventory. This simplifies and is especially valuable with many SKUs.
Inventory Possession Control
If your account ever gets suspended, your stock is in Amazon JAIL until the situation is resolved. With FBM you have 100% control of your inventory at all times. AVOID THE DREADED AMAZON REMOVAL ORDER!
Closer to your Customer
You want to be closer to your customer and retain more control of the process.
Return Management Control
FBA sending defective or used products out to new customers inflating negative feedback. FBM provides you total return processing control.
