INVENTORY INTAKE

INTRODUCING: INVENTORY INTAKE

Unless you want us packing and shipping boxes of Tokyo-flavored air, we most likely need to physically receive your store's stuff (inventory)!

What exactly is 'inventory'? Inventory is anything like products, specialized inserts, etc. that we'll need to Mix (pack) and Mail (ship) for your store.

When our warehouse receives your inventory, those items are inspected and then scanned it into the warehouse system. That's what 'Inventory Intake' is!

STEP 1. SEND INVENTORY OUR WAY

You can send us inventory yourself, or have it delivered to one of our fulfillment warehouses straight from your supplier / manufacturer / etc.

Since we don't have the miraculous ability to sense when someone sends us inventory (thanks for nothing, mom and dad), you'll have to let us know when inventory is on the way. You can do this by filling out the 'Incoming Inventory!' notification form. We'll ask for:

-Shipment info

-What inventory is coming

-Quantities of each item

There's a bit more information to fill out. In total, it takes about 5 minutes to fill out the whole form.

Incoming Inventory!

STEP 2. WE DO OUR THING

When your inventory arrives at our warehouse in Saitama Prefecture, it's first unloaded and then checked, to make sure there wasn't any damage in transit.

If your inventory isn't already barcoded, this is the part where barcodes are put on (this service is free).

Then your inventory is scanned into our warehouse system, and everything is moved into the warehouse. See our "Warehousing" page for more information about that.

STEP 2. BARCODING

If your inventory isn't already barcoded by your supplier / manufacturer, barcodes are then placed one each product. After that, everything is scanned into the warehouse system.

STEP 3. WAREHOUSING

Finally, your inventory is moved into the warehouse. Warehousing fees depend on the size of the item, and are charged per item, per day. See our "Warehousing" page for more information about that.
