Partners · 3PL and fulfilmentKeep your sellers listed. Keep their orders moving.
No EPR number, no listing. No listing, no orders through your warehouse.
Who is the producer for the goods you store
Holding the stock does not make you the producer. What decides it is who first places the goods on the French market.

Why it matters to a warehouse
- Marketplaces check. A marketplace must hold each seller's IDU or pay the eco-contributions itself, and platforms enforce it by blocking listings. Ministère de l'Écologie
- A warehouse does not make a seller established. Stock at a French 3PL generally does not make a foreign seller established in France, so it still needs a representative. Légifrance See does a French warehouse count.
- Your volume depends on it. A seller who cannot list stops shipping; your costs stay the same.
