Dropshipping is an order fulfillment method where a store doesn't keep the products it sells in stock. Instead, the seller purchases inventory as needed from a third party—usually a wholesaler or manufacturer—to fulfill orders
Dropshipping is a business model that allows entrepreneurs to start an online business and sell products to their buyers without ever actually stocking the items themselves. Instead, when a drop shipping store sells a product, it purchases the item from a third party and has it shipped directly to the customer.
2. Save on money, time and effort
3. Increased Wholesale buyers
Two of the most common approaches for dropshipping on Shopify are to seek out a supplier located in North America (or anywhere else in the world) using supplier databases, or to seek out a Shopify app that connects you and your store to thousands of suppliers.
For the latter, we recommend DSers, a Shopify app that helps independent business owners find products to sell. With DSers, you can browse AliExpress and import the products that pique your interest directly to DSers—which is connected to your Shopify store—with the click of a button.
Once a customer buys a product, you’ll be able to fulfill their order in the DSers app. Fortunately, DSers automates this process. As the store owner, all you have to do is check that the details are correct and click the Order button. The product is then sent directly from the AliExpress supplier to the customer—wherever in the world they may be.
