Online Legal India LogoBy Online Legal India Published On 24 May 2021 Updated On 13 Nov 2021 Category Company Registration 2 comments

Delivery or logistics is the backbone of any E-Commerce business! People these days have a preference for them over the traditional Market or Bazaar for the hassle-free delivery to their doorsteps and in the Covid-19 pandemic, E-Commerce is serving the people from every possible aspect.

Here, the global E-Commerce conglomerates like Amazon are conducting their business activities across India and opens up opportunities for the country’s logistics businesses to register as a transporter with Amazon and managing their deliveries.

In this article, we will discuss the process to register as an Amazon logistics partner or Amazon delivery franchise to take part in their billion turnover business.

 

Amazon Logistics Process

Amazon conducts its product delivery management through Amazon Transportation Service (ATS) in all the Tier-1 and Tier-2 cities. But, with the everyday growing customer base from the suburbs and the rural areas, E-commerce sites are looking for more local transporters in terms of getting in touch with the potential customer base.

In simplifying the SCM of Amazon, when an order is placed in their system, at first they start packaging the product and synchronize with the logistics to deliver the package to the customer’s doorstep. In between, if any cancellation happens, the package gets returned through the couriers themselves.

Sounds simple? But, it is not in the reality!

Logistics are seen as the last and the most important part of any Supply Chain Management. If a customer does not receive the ordered package on time or in a proper condition, possibly from the next time onwards he/she never orders anything from that E-commerce portal.

This not only lets the competitors get the business leads but also harms the reputation a lot. It is why Amazon is looking for dedicated business partners to be associated as their logistics partner in India.

 

Business Model

The foremost benefit of working as a delivery partner of Amazon is their ever-expanding feature that will never let your business out of orders. Apart from being financially independent business personnel, you will easily skip the initial business challenges for being a partner of a global market leader organization.

You will be paid monthly while the amount will be determined on the quantity of business you are making, the routes of delivery, and per-package price.

How to Begin with?

Being a delivery franchise for Amazon is not easy. You need to cope up with several things to get started with the global business leader.

i. Choose your Business Location 

In which area of the country you are planning to operate as the Amazon logistics partner is the most important thing before getting started. As already stated, the Metros and the Cities are already being covered with ATS services, so it is highly advisable to target the country's remote areas as the potential service area.

 

ii. Register a Company & Workplace

For being a delivery partner for Amazon, you are mandated to register as a Logistic Company and having a well-maintained workplace. As a transporter, you would require storing loads of products, packages, materials and thus it is ideal to go for a large place.

 

iii. Get done with the Legal Compliances 

Whenever you are about to set up a business in India, you would require to follow a few legal and business compliances. While registering as an Amazon logistics franchise, the foremost essentials are GST Registration, Income Tax, Logo Design with Trademark, etc.  

 

iv. Organize Man-power

Selecting the orders to deliver, returning them if needed, managing the storage, keeping the record - logistics business requires all of this work to be done. So, give priority to make your team before anything else.

 

v. Arrange for the vehicles

Logistics need vehicles. Arrange for a parcel van or motorcycle or employ people with such facilities.
