ZonPrep
ZonPrep is a third-party logistics provider and FBA prep center serving Amazon sellers. The company receives inbound inventory at its warehouses, performs Amazon-specific prep work including FNSKU labeling, polybagging, kitting, bundling, and inspection, and ships consolidated freight to Amazon fulfillment centers. It is aimed at brands and resellers that want to outsource physical prep and shipment handling to a dedicated operator rather than managing it in-house.
ZonPrep sits between supplier inbound shipments and the Amazon FBA network in a seller's workflow. Its focus is prep, consolidation, and outbound shipping to Amazon fulfillment centers, with the stated goal of helping sellers reduce inbound placement fee exposure and lower per-shipment freight costs. The service is operationally focused and does not replace inventory management, advertising, or analytics software. Pricing is not publicly listed, so sellers should request a quote based on unit volume, product mix, and service needs.
