I help DTC e-commerce brands optimize their supply chain, inventory planning, and cross-border operations.

Amazon FBA & TikTok Shop supply chain manager for e-commerce brands. I run inventory planning, FBA/FBT replenishment, China-to-3PL freight and n8n reporting so you stop stocking out and overpaying storage. 500+ SKUs, 98%+ stock accuracy. Most brands lose 10–20% of profit to poor inventory flow, unoptimized shipping and hidden logistics fees. I fix that. I'm Muhammad, 8 years in e-commerce supply chain across the USA, Canada, UK and Europe, working with 14+ brands. WHAT I DO • Amazon FBA operations: shipments, inbound placement, replenishment, Seller Central compliance, reimbursement claims • TikTok Shop inventory management: stock allocation across FBA, FBT (Fulfilled by TikTok) and 3PL, so one channel's sell-through doesn't strand stock in another • Demand forecasting & reorder planning: seasonality-aware, days-of-cover based (my forecasting work cut overstock by about 25%) • China to 3PL/FBA freight: air vs. sea decisions, forwarder coordination, landed-cost reduction • 3PL & warehouse coordination: audits, WMS/ERP integration, returns, discrepancy resolution • Supplier & PO management: negotiation, lead times, production schedules • Packaging and dimension changes that drop shipping and fee tiers • Weekly KPI reporting: turnover, fill rate, stockouts, overstock AUTOMATION & REPORTING I build the systems that make stock visible: n8n workflows, Amazon SP-API integrations, Google Sheets/Apps Script and Python automation, and dashboards for daily stock, units sold and Buy Box tracking with Slack alerts. If your team copies numbers out of Seller Central by hand, I can automate it. Fluent English, conversational Chinese for supplier communication. Message me your channels, SKU count and biggest stock headache, and I'll tell you where I'd start.
