Today, Amazon e-mailed their third party sellers to promote a new service called Amazon Global Logistics (AGL) aimed to offer reasonably priced shipments.
According to the announcement, Amazon Global Logistics (AGL) offers FBA Sellers end-to-end shipping services via ocean transportation options from CN into EU and US fulfilment centres and/or SPs’ own warehouses that can be conveniently booked through Seller Central or Shipper Central. AGL shipping services includes shipment pick-up in origin, palletization (if required), export/import customs clearance, and domestic delivery in the destination country.
This is the first time Amazon started offering AGL directly to sellers. It will also include the option of shipping to your own warehouse through our Ship-to-Storage (STS) program. STS allows you to ship ocean full-container-load (FCL) cargo with Amazon Global Logistics (AGL) from China to your designated, non-Amazon storage facility.

I hope you found this update helpful. Many Amazon sellers recently started trading stocks and crypto currencies, hoping to diversify their income, which is a very good idea with all the uncertainty which comes with the platform. For this reason, we launched a new Facebook group, Crypto Arbitrage Income (Bitcoin, Crypto, Altcoins, Blockchain, Trading) – feel free to join us and forget about the troubles of selling on Amazon for a moment!
