The US-Israel-Iran conflict has temporarily paralyzed logistics in the Middle East, affecting cross-border e-commerce restocking. Although some sellers are currently operating normally, if the conflict lasts longer than a month, the restocking risk will significantly increase, potentially causing a direct impact on business.

Caixin News The conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has temporarily paralyzed Middle Eastern import logistics. March coincides with the Middle Eastern Ramadan and the peak season for cross-border e-commerce, causing disruptions in cross-border restocking.

“Ramadan in the Middle East is similar to Black Friday in the US and is a peak consumption season. Companies usually stock up in advance at Middle Eastern overseas warehouses before Ramadan,” a cross-border seller on Amazon and the local Middle Eastern platform Noon told Caixin. Currently, the war has not had an immediate impact on their operations; sales and fulfillment on various platforms are still proceeding normally. However, he also added that if the conflict lasts more than a month and the restocking channels are cut off for an extended period, the risk of stockouts for sellers will significantly increase, directly affecting store operations.
