What Amazon FBA prep services include
Amazon FBA prep services cover every step between your supplier and Amazon's fulfillment centers. AMZ Prep receives your inventory, inspects each unit, and prepares it to Amazon's exact specifications.
Every unit gets an FNSKU barcode, poly bagging with suffocation warnings where required, and proper carton labeling. For multi-packs, the team assembles bundles, applies shrink wrap, and creates the correct case pack configurations.
Once prep is complete, AMZ Prep creates shipment plans directly in Seller Central. Cartons are labeled, palletized, and loaded onto dedicated trucks heading to Amazon FCs. The entire process takes 24 hours from dock to dispatch.
Sellers focus on sourcing and sales. AMZ Prep handles the operational work that gets products listed and available on Amazon.
- Receiving and item-level inspection at the dock
- FNSKU barcode printing and application
- Poly bagging with suffocation warning labels
- Bundle and multi-pack assembly
- Shipment plan creation through Seller Central

Every unit goes through item-level inspection before prep begins. The team checks for damage, verifies product identity, and confirms packaging integrity. This is how AMZ Prep maintains a 99.8% Amazon acceptance rate across all locations.
Expiration date tracking and FIFO management are built in for perishable and supplement categories. Case pack configurations, pallet stacking patterns, and climate-controlled storage for meltables follow Amazon's current specifications.
