Frequently asked questions
Does Flowspace have fulfillment centers in California?
Yes, Flowspace operates fulfillment centers across California, including in the Los Angeles and Inland Empire regions. California is one of Flowspace's most active states, given its enormous ecommerce market and its role as a gateway for international imports.
Why is California critical for ecommerce fulfillment?
California is the largest consumer market in the US, with nearly 40 million residents and some of the highest ecommerce adoption rates in the country. Fulfilling from California provides same-day or next-day delivery to major metros like LA, San Francisco, San Diego, and Sacramento.
What is the Inland Empire and why does it matter for fulfillment?
The Inland Empire, centered around Riverside and San Bernardino counties east of LA, is one of the largest warehousing and logistics hubs in North America. Flowspace leverages facilities in this region to provide brands with cost-effective California fulfillment without the premium of warehouse space within LA city limits.
How does California's port access benefit Flowspace customers?
California's proximity to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach—the busiest container ports in the US—makes it ideal for brands that import goods from Asia. Inventory can move directly from port to a nearby Flowspace facility, reducing drayage costs and speeding up time-to-fulfillment.
Are there sales tax implications for storing inventory in California?
Storing inventory in California creates sales tax nexus for your business. Flowspace's platform includes tools to help brands track their inventory locations and manage tax compliance. We recommend consulting a tax advisor about your specific obligations when operating in California.
