The stock numbers drift
Once counting and selling happen in different places, they always do. SKU and barcode control, recorded on every movement, removes the counting rather than improving it.
Service
Fulfillment in Japan
We hold your goods in Japan, inspect and store them, and dispatch order by order.
Inbound inspection, SKU-level stock control, automatic order intake, picking, packing, dispatch and returns handling, run out of our warehouse. For businesses selling into the Japanese market.
Overview
TIXIMAX fulfillment in Japan
The labour in e-commerce starts once the goods land. Receive, count, put away, pull for each order, pack, ship.
We take that whole run on in our warehouse. If the import from Vietnam is ours as well, the arriving cargo simply becomes stock.
Definition
2. What is Fulfillment in Japan?
"Fulfillment" is used for everything from renting shelf space to running dispatch. Here is what we do.
2.1 What is Fulfillment
Fulfillment means holding your goods, and then for each order pulling the items, packing them and handing them to a carrier — including taking returns back in and putting them back into stock.
The difference from renting a warehouse is that people and systems come with it. We are not letting you space; we are doing the dispatch.
2.2 Challenges of Managing Orders in Japan Yourself
Ten orders a day you can do yourself. At a hundred you are hiring, and if the volume has peaks you are either overstaffed or short. Stock accuracy starts slipping the moment the place you count and the place you sell are not the same place.
2.3 How Does Fulfillment in Japan Work?
The situations this service is for.
- Order volume has grown past what you can pack yourself.
- You sell on several marketplaces and keeping the stock numbers aligned has become hard.
- Peaks and troughs are wide enough that you cannot settle on a headcount.
- You want the import from Vietnam and the dispatch in Japan under one company.
- Returns are piling up and are not making it back into stock.
It pays off less by volume than by how uneven the volume is.
2.4 Who Should Use Fulfillment in Japan?
Who uses this service.
We size the operation to your volume, so you can start small.

What changes when we handle it.
3.1 What happens when you run dispatch yourself
And what we do about each of them.
Peaks outrun your staff
Hiring to a peak leaves you carrying it through the trough. Handled in our warehouse, extra volume costs only what the extra volume costs.
Packing quality varies
Different people pack differently. Materials and steps are fixed per product, so the parcel is the same whoever made it.
Returns pile up
Receive, assess, put the good ones back. Stop that and your stock stops matching reality. We keep it running.
