Recently, the whole of Europe is experiencing rare and continuous high temperatures. From Paris to Madrid, from Berlin to Rome, the temperature has been rising, and many areas have even seen a rare high temperature of 40℃. Although heat is not uncommon in summer, this year's heat wave is particularly fierce, causing European residents to rapidly increase their demand for various cooling devices.

The penetration rate of air conditioners is not high, and car fans have become a "just need"

Compared with the North American market, the penetration rate of air conditioners in European households and vehicles is not high. According to Statista data, the coverage rate of household air conditioners in countries such as France and Germany is still at a low level. For commuters, car fans that can be carried with the car and do not need to be installed have become a "just need" this summer.

According to feedback from local European e-commerce platforms, from May to June this year, the search volume for the keywords "USB car fan" and "clip-on mini fan" on Amazon Germany and Cdiscount France surged. Some small fan products with stylish appearance, low noise and energy saving have become hot-selling products almost overnight.

Cross-border sellers acted quickly at this point, and many brands of car fans have entered the European market, not only achieving good sales on Amazon, SHEIN, and TEMU platforms, but also helping sellers to overtake in the summer category.

But behind the hot sales, there are also considerable after-sales challenges.

On the one hand, small household appliances, especially USB car fans, although simple in structure, are prone to bumps during transportation, and are prone to loose parts and poor circuit contact. On the other hand, some buyers are subjectively dissatisfied with wind power, noise, size, etc., which can easily trigger returns.

According to feedback from European sellers, the return rate of seasonal products such as car fans can reach 8%~12%, which is much higher than that of conventional standard products. Once the after-sales processing is not timely, it may affect the store rating and even be punished by the platform.

More importantly, if the return quality inspection and secondary listing operations cannot be done well, hot-selling products may become "unsalable inventory", which not only occupies storage resources, but also affects profit recovery.

Then the question is: Faced with such hot-selling products with high-frequency returns, how should sellers handle returns? Is there a local return warehouse in Europe that can take over the quality inspection, relabeling, restocking and even return of car fans to China?
