In other Amazon news, the company has adjusted its Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) seller capacity for the peak season. Amazon explained how it adjusts capacity for the peak shopping season, advising sellers who use its fulfillment services to get their inventory to its warehouses by October 26 in order to be ready for Black Friday, the traditional kickoff to the holiday shopping season. As part of its preparation, it offers most sellers higher estimated capacity limits for October. However, most sellers will also see lower estimated capacity limits for November. “In November and December, we’ll focus on processing customer orders,” Amazon explained. “This temporary shift in emphasis from receiving shipments to fulfilling customer orders will ensure faster delivery speed and maximize your sales potential during the holiday season.”
That’s all for this week. Enjoy the weekend, and the song of the week, Apple Tree by Wolfmother.
