Dropshipping is a retail fulfillment method where a store doesn't keep the products it sells in stock. Instead, when a store sells a product, it purchases the item from a third-party supplier, who then ships the product directly to the customer. The seller doesn't handle or store the inventory, making it a low-risk and cost-effective way to start an e-commerce business. The seller's profit comes from the difference between the wholesale price paid to the supplier and the price charged to the customer. Dropshipping is popular for its minimal upfront investment, flexibility, and the ability to offer a wide range of products. However, it also presents challenges, such as lower profit margins, inventory control, and potential supplier issues.
