Shipping FCL from factory to 1 Amazon FC in the UK
Has anyone been able to figure out how to ship full container loads to a single Amazon warehouse in the UK?
We are in a program called "Premium Placement Service", which we were told allows this but no matter what I do, shipments are split into multiple FCs.
Amazon Seller Support, in true fashion, is entirely useless and just goes around and around in circles. They tried to claim it has something to do with sortable and non-sortable inventory but that is not the case because the same item is on different shipments.
Our only option is to ship our containers into a 3rd party warehouse, have them split it up and reship it to Amazon. This doubles the price we have to charge for our product on Amazon.
Thanks in advance

Hello @Seller_Rm5GIUkY0nm50,
Thank you for getting in touch.
With FBA Premium Placement Programme, once your products are shipped to these designated centres, we may redistribute them among our facilities as per our FBA Service Terms.
The specific fulfilment center you ship to will be determined by Amazon during the shipment creation process, with costs calculated per unit, and it may change over time.
Best regards, Ezra
