Can our products be sent to our UK retailers using FBA Multi Channel Fulfilment service?
Hi, we are new to Amazon and plan to begin sell our products on Amazon UK. We would like to send all our products to Amazon Fulfillment Centre in the UK. We will use FBA service with labeling and packaging service to send our products to customers who order our products on Amazon UK. Those would require Amazon item label put on at the Fuilfillment Centre. However, we would also like Amazon to ship our products to UK local retailers who order products from us directly. Those products should not be put on Amazon item labels, as the product has its own barcode on the box for retailers to scan when selling it to customers. Can this be arranged by FBA and how do we make such request through our Seller Central account? Is this kind of service we are looking for under the FBA Multi Channel Fulfillment service Amazon is providing to sellers?

I wouldn’t use mcf to send to retailers as you’re charged per unit and its not cheap
They also won’t remove any labels

I think you would get a better deal looking at a third party logistic supplier to do this for you.
If you are providing the items by pallet to them they are likely to charge you a pallet storage rate which may well be lower than the per item rate of Amazon. Assuming your retailers are ordering in bulk they will charge a lower fee to fulfil the order.

You would probably be better with something like a storage unit facility then just repack things yourself for sending to retailers

I would assume a storage unit would be a lot cheaper than Amazon, but then of course you would have to put the time and effort into picking, packing and posting yourself.
However note that Amazon will charge per unit - so if you send them 100,000 units and someone buys 1,000, you’ll be paying 1,000 fulfilment fees
