Logistics services firm Flexport observes Amazon China has been authorized by the U.S. Federal Maritime Commission to provide ocean freight services to the U.S. Flexport: "Amazon China now has the appropriate paperwork to provide ocean freight services for other companies. This is Amazon's first step toward entering the $350 billion ocean freight market ... Why does becoming an ocean freight forwarder make sense for Amazon China but not for Amazon itself? Because Amazon's ocean freight services will be far more attractive to Chinese sellers than to American buyers.
