Raleigh, NC — 9/6/2020: JW Carolina Trading is one of the most well-known distributors of consumer items such as electronics, makeup and toys in their area. They are now also aiding Amazon sellers in gaining access to restricted product categories on the platform.
Amazon’s restricted category policies has been in place since the company started getting popular. In an effort to gain credibility as a trusted platform for consumers, Jeff Bezos ensured the highest quality control by only allowing credible sellers to sell commonly-counterfeited goods.
The categories that come under these restrictions include collectibles, personal safety and medical support items, jewelry, beauty items, video streaming devices and more. Each group of items under restriction comes with its own set of retail conditions that the Amazon seller has to fulfill in order to ungate the category.
JW Carolina Trading steps in to help their local business owners and retailers become trusted sellers on Amazon by taking over the whole application process. They ensure that they’ve taken all the right details from the retailer in question and then launch the protocol to get all the required certification and documentation needed to get their clients a quick approval.
By taking the burden of this lengthy and stringent application process off their clients’ hands, they’re helping create a flourishing business community in the area. Many small business owners rely on online platforms to create an income for themselves because there are limited opportunities available outside of virtual space.
A representative of the company enlightened us about their new service, “As wholesalers and distributors, we felt that there was a gap in the items that Amazon-based retailers were buying from us. We discuss this with our clients and found that many of them had been unsuccessful in gaining access to Amazon’s restricted categories. We started to assist them in their ventures and eventually developed a knack for gaining quick approvals! It was then that upper management decided that we need to start helping as many people as we could.”
JW Carolina Trading obtains US-based wholesaler invoices, FDA and GMP registration certifications and Certificates of Analysis as well as any other documentation required to complete ungating applications.
