Is There a Temu Store Near Me?

Temu does not have brick-and-mortar retail locations in the U.S. or internationally. They offer unbelievably low prices and thin profit margins on products from Chinese sellers, so signing leases and operating physical retail stores is not currently part of their brand strategy.

Tip: If you don’t want to wait a long time for your order to be shipped from China, choose items with a Local warehouse tag on the product description.

Temu ships hundreds of thousands of packages each day, so let’s talk about their warehouses and distribution.

Where Are Temu Local Warehouses?

Warehouses located in the U.S. are key to Temu’s distribution strategy to reduce frustrating wait times for packages often sent from China. You’ll see more items on Temu shipped from these domestic warehouses as their distribution strategy evolves.

How can you tell where an item is shipped from? Items on temu.com are denoted as either shipping directly from Temu or from a local warehouse. Click that link and you’ll get info about the seller, but the warehouse location is not specified and only says “within your country or region.”

If an item is shipped directly from Temu the good news is that it will ship free, but the bad news is that it will take a long time as it is probably going to be shipped from China.

Many items have a local warehouse tag which means they will ship from a regional warehouse in the U.S. Although you’ll get your order faster with domestic shipping, it will cost you $2.99 unless you spend a minimum amount.

So, where are Temu warehouses located? Temu is intentionally vague and even downright secretive about where they ship your order from and warehouse locations are not publicly disclosed for security and operational reasons.

Here’s what they say about shipping on temu.com:

“Temu ships its products from suppliers and manufacturers, using experienced and reliable logistics partners. Temu’s shipping origins can vary depending on the product being purchased. However, Temu works with leading package carriers like UPS, FedEx, and USPS to ensure that all orders are delivered promptly and securely to customers.”

A pessimist might say that they are hiding something and don’t want people snooping into their business or working conditions, but I prefer to think of Temu’s distribution network as being like Santa’s workshop at the North Pole. No one knows exactly where it is, but thousands of elves are working really hard in secrecy to make cheap things for you and your kids!

Temu offers unbeatable prices, so keeping the locations of their warehouses and order fulfilment centers secret might give them a competitive advantage over companies like Amazon and Walmart.

Where Is Temu’s Headquarters?

Mega-retailers including Temu and Shein don’t seem to think their Chinese roots are good for business. For that reason, they have established headquarters in the U.S. and Europe and don’t make the address of any Chinese headquarters or offices public.

Here are the addresses of Temu headquarters:

• Temu’s U.S. headquarters is located in the Park Square Building Office in the Back Bay section of Boston, Massachusetts at 31 St James Ave Suite 355, Boston, MA 02116
• In 2023 Temu established a European headquarters in Dublin at 25 St Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2, D02 XF99, Ireland

The contact page on Temu.com will direct you to the U.S. headquarters, although they stress that you should not return anything to that address.

Is the Viral Temu Warehouse Video Real?

You may have seen this video, first posted by Daily Mail, purportedly of a Temu warehouse in China showing shirtless employees sorting packages in shocking working conditions:

While Temu is secretive and may indeed be overworking their Chinese employees, Snopes has fact-checked the video and concluded that it is not a Temu warehouse and the video may have been recorded before Temu was even operating.

Temu is Everywhere but Nowhere!

I once heard a riddle that asked, “What is nowhere but everywhere, except where something is?”

Although I think the answer was, “nothing”, it could also be, “Temu.”

That’s because they are one of the biggest, most popular retail companies in the world, but have almost no visible footprint.

I’ve done a lot of research and have concluded that in the ultra-competitive online retail market less is more when it comes to revealing your shipping locations and distribution network. Although there are no Temu stores nearby and the location of their warehouses and headquarters are shrouded in mystery, they are still everywhere; delivering shockingly cheap merchandise for free domestically and internationally, and still making enough money to somehow run Super Bowl ads.
