Step 5: Ship inventory and fulfill orders
You have three basic options when it comes to getting customers in Latin America their stuff:
- Export inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers in Latin America and use Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) to store, pack, and ship customer orders. Note that selling with FBA in Brazil is only available to Brazil-based accounts.
- Use Remote Fulfillment with FBA to sell in Mexico and Brazil without sending inventory to those countries. When you enroll in the program and create offers on Amazon.com.mx and Amazon.com.br, we use your inventory in US fulfillment centers to deliver to customers across the border.
- Ship orders to customers directly using a suite of solutions we call Fulfilled by Merchant. We offer a network of vetted providers for global shipping that offer discounted rates.
