Amazon FBA prep and storage
Store bulk inventory outside Amazon, prepare units, cartons and pallets to the agreed inbound requirements, and release replenishment from WMS-controlled stock in Mississauga or Charlotte.
Canada FBA update
Effective July 1, 2026
Amazon announced that, effective July 1, 2026, it would no longer offer FBA prep and item-labelling services for inventory sent to its Canada store. Sellers still need to follow the packaging, preparation and barcode requirements that apply to their products before inventory arrives at an Amazon fulfilment centre. Newl can receive inventory in Mississauga, apply the prep and label workflow agreed for each SKU, hold overflow stock outside Amazon and release replenishment when instructed.

Ongoing inventory buffer
You need to hold pallets, cartons or seasonal inventory outside Amazon and release planned replenishment batches.
Warehouse-led storage
Newl assesses receiving, storage, inventory visibility and release rules around the seller's actual operating profile.
Repeatable prep requirements
Your SKUs have recurring FNSKU, carton, pallet, polybagging, bundling, kitting or relabelling instructions.
Defined SKU workflows
Newl records the agreed handling instructions before prep begins and applies them within the warehouse workflow.
Shared inventory
The same stock needs to support FBA replenishment, DTC, wholesale or retail orders.
Allocation and release rules
Newl can keep one WMS-controlled stock position available to multiple channels when allocation rules are defined.
Operating profile
FBA support model
Newl gives Amazon sellers a warehouse-controlled buffer before inventory enters FBA, so stock can be prepared, counted, labeled, and released to Amazon in the right quantities.
Hold excess pallets, cartons, and seasonal inventory outside Amazon while keeping stock visible through Newl's warehouse management workflows.
Prepare units, cartons, and pallets for Amazon inbound requirements before inventory leaves the warehouse.
Build replenishment batches from stored inventory instead of sending every unit into Amazon at once.
Receive removed or returned inventory, inspect sellable stock, relabel where needed, and make it available again.
Keep inventory flexible for Amazon FBA, Shopify, wholesale, retail, and B2B orders from the same warehouse stock.
Use Charlotte and Mississauga to support U.S. and Canadian seller programs, transfers, and replenishment planning.
Compliance & prep details
Amazon sellers need more than storage space. They need a warehouse partner that understands the operational details that keep inbound FBA shipments clean, traceable, and ready to receive.
FBA requirements can vary by product, shipment plan, region, carton profile, and Amazon instruction set. Newl reviews requirements during onboarding and confirms the handling rules before daily execution.
Barcode and label workflows aligned to the way Amazon identifies units, cartons, and shipment contents.
Value-add handling before inbound, including common marketplace prep requirements and SKU-specific rules.
Palletized and cartonized shipments prepared with attention to Amazon receiving constraints.
Warehouse reporting keeps sellers clear on what is stored, what is staged, and what is headed into FBA.
FBA replenishment flow
The goal is simple: keep inventory controlled outside Amazon until it is ready, compliant, and needed for replenishment.
Inventory arrives at Charlotte or Mississauga, is received into WMS, checked against the inbound profile, and made available for storage or prep.
Units, cartons, kits, bundles, and pallets are prepared to the agreed FBA handling rules before shipment release.
Bulk stock stays outside Amazon with SKU-level visibility, aging awareness, and available inventory for other channels.
Newl stages replenishment batches, applies carton or pallet requirements, and coordinates outbound movement to Amazon.
