Dropshipping is a business model in which online retailers do not keep products in stock but instead partner with a supplier or wholesaler who handles inventory and shipping.

When a customer places an order, you forward the order details to the supplier, who then ships the products directly to the customer's doorstep.

With dropshipping, you would only need to have an online store where you can upload the products from the suppliers you wish to work with. With no need for physical stock, You do not need to worry about the packaging and shipping processes, as these are the suppliers' responsibilities.


Reasons to choose dropshipping:

  • Low investments

    • With no need for inventory or upfront product purchases, dropshipping significantly reduces initial investment costs

  • Flexibility and Scalability

    • Dropshipping allows you to run your business from anywhere with an internet connection. It also enables easy expansion and scaling since you're not limited by inventory constraints

  • Reduced risks

    • As a dropshipper, you don't face the risk of holding unsold inventory or dealing with excess stock
