Sound familiar?

Most international brands entering the US feel the same way: uncertain about logistics, and worried about an expensive first mistake.

  • No US presence or trusted local partner
  • Confused by Importer of Record (IOR) requirements
  • Loss of the De Minimis exemption made drop shipping expensive
  • Amazon FBA storage costs, inventory restrictions, or SKU limits
  • Customs and freight paperwork feels like a minefield
  • Afraid of an expensive first-time mistake

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a US entity to use FBMFulfillment?

Not necessarily — many of our international clients operate as non-resident importers. We’ll walk you through what’s required, including Importer of Record (IOR) considerations, before you ship anything.

What is Importer of Record and why does it matter?

The Importer of Record is legally responsible for your goods clearing US customs. Your 3PL cannot act as your IOR — getting this wrong can mean fines or rejected shipments. We help clients understand this before their first shipment, not after.

We already have inventory stuck in FBA with storage or SKU issues — can you help?

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons international brands find us. We take the overflow, store it in Jacksonville, and replenish FBA on a controlled schedule.

Why Jacksonville specifically?

Jacksonville offers strong port access and East Coast reach, which lowers inbound freight friction for brands shipping from Europe, Asia, and Latin America.

How much of your client base is international?

Roughly half. Guiding non-US brands through their first US fulfillment setup is one of the things we do most often.
