 As dropshippers, I'm pretty sure that we all know the importance of fast shipping. Oh, really? Long gone are the days of people waiting one or two months for their products, and we are now in the age of Amazon, meaning people want their packages literally tomorrow. If not the same day. But most people actually understand the fact that not everyone or not every company is as efficient or as big as Amazon. People are OK with waiting one or two weeks for their packages. So this means that you need to start looking for suppliers that can actually have your products to your customers at least within two weeks. If you're still stuck using suppliers that take over a month to get their products out to your customers, then you really need to watch this video all the way through because I'm going to be giving you 13 of the fastest shipping suppliers that you can use for your dropshipping business right now. I mean, it's really no secret how important fast shipping times are. Next to product research, shipping times are probably the second most crucial aspect of your dropshipping business. This can really make or break you. People are not going to be waiting over a month for their products. By that time, some people might even cancel their orders because it's just taking so long. There are so many other options out there right now that one month's shipping times honestly are obsolete. Now, really quick before we continue to go along with this video, I am going to have an easy to reference cheat sheet with all of the different links that I'm going to be talking about, along with one or two extra bonuses here and there. Now, if you want access to that, just go ahead and comment down below. Hashtag fast shipping. And let me know which one of these suppliers is your favorite. Once I see that you went ahead and did that, I'll go ahead and reply back with a link to the cheat sheet. Now, before we go ahead and start the countdown, let's quickly go over a few factors that you need to always look at whenever you're choosing your new dropshipping suppliers. Of course, always make sure that your suppliers meet this criteria. So that way you can have some quick shipping. So the first thing that you need to do is verify and make sure that they have a valid address and contact information. Check out their websites, send them an email, make sure that they reply back to you. And that way you can also more or less gauge how the conversation can go. If in case you ever do need to reply back to them or reach out to them for whatever reason. Also, you want to make sure that your suppliers have international warehouses. Wherever your suppliers are located, you want to make sure that they have warehouses in that country and the surrounding countries. If you have a Chinese supplier and their warehouses only located in China, then chances are your shipping is going to take a lot longer than it really should. Now, let's say you're dropshipping in the UK and in the US, but you're sourcing your products from a Chinese supplier. Well, then you want to make sure that your supplier has warehouses in both countries, along with China and a few others. International warehouses really makes a huge difference when it comes to your shipping times. Another thing that you always want to look out for is going to be different types of shipping methods. You want to make sure that your suppliers have multiple shipping methods, not just one. Let's say your supplier only offers shipping by the sea or by boat. That's going to mean that your product is going to take an insane amount of time to get to your customer. So always make sure that they offer multiple shipping methods such as DHL, E packet, FedEx, UPS, USPS, whatever it may be. You also want to make sure that they have practical shipping, return and payment policies. Very importantly, you also want to make sure that they have a wide product range. You want to check out your supplier's website, go through all the different categories and just make sure that they have a lot of different variations and a lot of different types of items. And you don't want to confirm that they have just an abundance of items. You also want to make sure that they have an abundance of reviews. You want to make sure that whatever supplier you're using has positive reviews. You want to make sure that people are happy with them and that they have quality products. And speaking about that, the last thing that I'm going to cover is going to be customer service. You always want to reach out to the supplier beforehand, send them a message or two, see how they reply back, see how long it takes for them to reply back. Because at the end of the day, our customer service is essentially going to be an extension of our supplier's customer service. If our supplier takes two or three days to get back to us for a question, that's how long it's going to take us to get back to our customers. All right, so now that we know exactly what to look for in our suppliers, it's time to start the countdown for the 13 best suppliers with the fastest shipping. But really quick, right before we actually do start the countdown, if you're enjoying this video so far and you want to see more like it, please make sure you hit that subscribe button and ring that little bell notification so you don't miss out on any future videos. Remember that on this channel, we cover anything and everything dropshipping related, starting from some of the best tips and tricks to help you get started all the way to the best products for you to start dropshipping for maximum profits. So if that's something that interests you, just make sure to subscribe. OK, so kicking off this list for fastest dropshipping suppliers. And at number one, we have Walmart. So a couple of key features about Walmart is, for one, they actually have a dropshipping program. They're pretty dropshipping friendly, surprisingly. I know a lot of people don't really know that, but you can actually use Walmart as one of your dropshipping suppliers and they're going to be totally cool with it. Aside from that, they have an immense product range. I'm pretty sure you all know, but Walmart sells a little bit of everything, not only that, but if you do decide to use Walmart as one of your suppliers, they also give you some pretty robust analytics so you can keep track of your sales, you can know what's selling and if you're actually making profits. They also have an awesome price match policy, which is one of my favorite things about them, whether it's shopping for myself or as a dropshipper. I always love going to places that have price match policies because what this means is that if today I purchase these headphones for $150 and tomorrow they get discounted to $100, then I can go ahead and contact Walmart and they'll refund me those $50 back. Now, another huge plus that I want to cover really quick before we continue to the next one is the fact that if you're using Walmart as your supplier, you can benefit from automation. Now, what I mean by this is you can pretty much automate your entire business with something like Autodesk. So let's say I want to sell this mattress and I want to import it to my store. All I have to do is just go ahead and copy the link, run over to my account over at Autodesk.com and if you don't have one at the moment, you can sign up for the trial period for just $1. And once I'm on here, all I have to do is go ahead and click on add a product. So I can either add just one or I can add multiples. In this case, we're just doing one. So I'm gonna click on single. And once I get to this page, I'm just gonna go ahead and paste the link. And as you can see, my supplier source changed to Walmart and the region, United States. So that means my supplier is of course Walmart and it's being shipped from the US. From here, I can either go ahead and publish it directly to my store, which honestly I don't recommend because I suggest that you adjust your prices or you can go to edit now. Once you click on edit now, it goes to your draft section and you can make any necessary adjustments there. So here you can optimize the title, you can add it to any collections if you're selling on Shopify. You can add any tags to keep track of analytics. You can change the shipping method. And on top of that, you can also change the description, change around the different variants. On the same page, you can also change the pricing on all of the different variations as well. And you can add, delete, or even edit images. And finally, the average shipping time for Walmart is typically about one to five business days. Up next in our second spot, we have CJ Dropshipping. Now I'm sure a lot of people have heard of CJ Dropshipping and some people might be thinking, but wait, CJ Dropshipping doesn't have the fastest shipping times, but I'm here to tell you that, yes, they actually do. What you need to do is actually locate the sellers or the products that offer the quicker shipping times. Take this briefcase for example. What you wanna do is just go ahead and look over to the side, scroll down a little bit and look at their estimated delivery times. So here you can actually change the shipping method and you can see that the CJ packet ordinary takes about eight to 15 days. That in itself is between one to two weeks. But aside from that, you have a few others. So 12 to 25 days, avoid that, 10 to 20 days, 20 to 60 days, definitely avoid that one. Some of which go from six to 11 days, others five to 11, six to 10, three to seven. It really varies. So just make sure you choose the appropriate shipping method. Now a few key features for CJ Dropshipping is for one, they have quality control. So you can rest assured that the majority of the items that are shipped from the sellers over at CJ Dropshipping are gonna be of good quality. And if for whatever reason, you do have an issue with one of the products or one of the orders, then you can always reach out to the seller and they should be able to take care of you without any issues. Aside from that, they also have some pretty competitive pricing. So as you saw the price of the briefcase, if you start looking around some other suppliers, let's say like AliExpress or DHK, you're gonna notice that the pricing is fairly similar, if not a little bit better. CJ Dropshipping also offers print on demand services. Now I absolutely love print on demand because I think it's a really cool business model. And pretty much all it is, is the ability to be able to print your designs on different products. So you can print your designs on shirts, mouse pads, tumblers, cups, mugs, pretty much whatever you can think of. And one of my favorite features from CJ Dropshipping is the fact that they have the ability to be able to source products that aren't on the platform. So if you find an item, let's say on AliExpress, that is not yet on the CJ Dropshipping platform, then you can go ahead and reach out to them and they'll be able to source that product and add it to their website. So that way you can start sourcing that product from CJ Dropshipping. With CJ Dropshipping, you also have the benefit to be able to automate your entire store. So it is a supplier supported by AutoDS. Now typical shipping times from CJ Dropshipping can range between three to 17 business days. Next supplier on this list is a wholesale supplier and also another one of my favorites and that's gonna be Costco. Now Costco does offer dropshipping support, so that's one huge plus. Aside from that, they have some extremely fast delivery times. Typically you can expect Costco items to arrive within two to 10 business days. They have some really high quality items, all of which are backed by a very generous return policy. So if you have any issues with your orders or with the products, you have a 90 day return window to be able to exchange or return the item for a full refund. Aside from that, your customer service is amazing. If you contact them, they're gonna get back to you fairly quick and they're all gonna be extremely nice and extremely helpful. Of course Costco is also supported by AutoDS, so you can enjoy the benefits of automation. On our fourth spot, we have one supplier that absolutely everyone knows about and pretty much anyone has started off with and that's AliExpress. Now I know a lot of people are gonna say, AliExpress has really slow shipping. Sometimes it can take one to two months. Well, yes, that is true for certain items. Just like CJ Dropshipping, you need to check out the seller and you need to check out the item to see how fast it actually ships. Some products can get to your customer within two weeks. Take, for example, this frying pot. This actually has some extremely quick shipping. This can arrive within five business days. I bet you didn't expect that from AliExpress, now did you? So AliExpress also offers a ton of different products. As we all know, AliExpress has a pretty extensive product catalog so you're never gonna run out of products to sell. AliExpress also has a Dropship sensor and this makes it really easy to be able to start finding some trending products. So looking at the Dropship sensor itself, as you can see, they have a few different winning products. These are all different products that have been proven to sell on AliExpress. This is what people have been searching for and what they have been purchasing. On top of that, you also have a little bit of analytics. So for one, you can see a start rating and you can see how many have sold. On AliExpress, a lot of the times you can also find some pretty good deals and discounts. A lot of the times you can find welcome deals. So the first time you purchase from AliExpress or from a certain supplier, you can have a little discount. Now, typical shipping times on AliExpress, of course, can vary depending on the seller that you're purchasing from, but on average, you can expect anywhere between five and 30 business days. Next up we have Costway. And if you're drop shipping from Costway, that means that you're probably specializing in home goods. Costway does specialize in home goods and that's primarily what they sell. So all of the products shipping from Costway are proven quality. So you can rest assured that your customers are going to receive quality products. They're also very drop shipper friendly and they have white label products as well. On top of that, they also have a rewards program so that way you can start saving some money and earning some cash back. Of course, like all of the other suppliers on this list, you can enjoy the benefits of automation through AutoDS. And typical shipping times from Costway can range between one to 10 business days. Next up on number six is everyone's favorite retail store and little did they know that this can also be used as a drop shipping supplier and that is Target. Now Target has some of the highest quality items. Pretty much anything that you buy from Target, everyone's gonna be happy with. Everyone loves Target. They also have some pretty good weekly deals. So every other week, they're gonna have a different deal going on. They have a loyalty program and they also have a red card. Now the red card is a credit or debit card that can help you save up to 5% off on your orders. On top of that, it also gives you free shipping. Now when it comes to customer service, Target is top tier. Target is always gonna have some of the friendliest staff that you can reach out to and they're always gonna be able to fix whatever issue you're having pretty much on the spot. And if they can't, they'll take down your information and get back to you typically within 24 hours. Now typical shipping from Target can range between one to five business days. It's pretty fast. eBay is up next at number seven with a little bit of everything. You can literally find pretty much anything on eBay. On top of that, eBay users, they sell globally. So sellers on eBay can be located around the entire world. eBay also has a built in tracker. So whenever you purchase an item or you source an item from eBay and it's shipped out, then you can see the tracking status directly on eBay. This is also a great place to be able to spy in the competition so you can see what others are selling and how much they're selling it for. On top of that, you can also see what items have sold and at what price. eBay has a buyer seller protection program so that way if you ever have any issues with a seller or with a buyer, you can reach out to eBay and they'll step in to fix the issue. Typical shipping time from eBay can range between one to eight business days. Next up at number eight, we have Shopify. Now, this is an interesting one, isn't it? Because you can't really purchase directly from Shopify. So what this means is that any store that is selling on Shopify, you can now use as a supplier if you're using AutoDS. So you can benefit from automation from any store that's selling online using the Shopify platform. So this really opens up the amount of items that you have the ability to sell or source. I mean, think about it. How many Shopify stores are there selling an insane amount of items? You now have access to sell all of those same products. Now, when it comes to the shipping times, this can really vary. But generally speaking, you can expect shipping times between one to 14 business days. My favorite platform is up next and that is Etsy. I absolutely love Etsy. I always have. I love the items that are sold on there and I love the platform itself to be able to sell on. I love Etsy. Now, if you're selling on Etsy or if you're sourcing your products from Etsy, there's one thing that you can notice. The products on there are pretty niched. A lot of the products that you can find on there are gonna be handmade products, hand crafting products, arts and collectibles, crafting supplies, pretty much anything that can be DIY, you can find on Etsy. Etsy is also pretty much made up of local sellers. So all of the sellers that are on Etsy are gonna be small business owners or people that make things themselves. Now, one quick thing that I wanna mention about Etsy is the fact that since most of the products on Etsy are actually handmade, people aren't scared to spend extra money. People love handmade items and they will pay more for them. Now, shipping can vary on Etsy because a lot of the sellers that actually handmade their items. But typically speaking, you can expect shipping between three to seven business days. Next up, specializing in home improvement in at our number 10 spot, we have Home Depot. Now, aside from quick shipping, Home Depot also offers a pretty wide variety of items when it comes to the home improvement niche. So you can purchase anything from Power Tools all the way to lighting fixtures on there. Also, if you're a business, Home Depot offers a tax exemption policy. So you can apply to not have taxes charged to you. Home Depot also offers a price match policy and they have some really good financing options. Typical shipping from Home Depot can range between two to 10 business days. Next up at number 11, we have Banggood. Now, right off the bat, the first thing I wanna mention about Banggood is the fact that they always have some sort of promotion or some sort of deal going on. As you can see, I just signed onto the website and I was immediately prompted with a new user benefit. So here I can save a couple of bucks or if I go ahead and exit it, you'll also be able to see a few different promotions throughout the page. Banggood also has a pretty extensive product catalog all with items that are fairly reasonably priced. That's pretty competitive pricing on here. Now, aside from the different deals and discounts that they offer, they also have rewards and cashback options. Typical shipping from Banggood can range anywhere between two to 30 business days. Up next on our number 12 spot, we have Wayfair. Now, Wayfair specializes in home goods and furniture. So if you're looking to drop ship a couch or furniture or some pretty high ticket items, Wayfair is the place to go. Wayfair has some top quality items all which are reasonably priced. They also have the MyWay program, which in my opinion is a fantastic rewards program because not only do you get rewards from it, you also have access to an exclusive list of items. So MyWay members are able to purchase a separate catalog of items that typical members do not have access to. And that in itself can give you a pretty good competitive advantage. Typical shipping times from Wayfair can range anywhere between one to eight business days. Now, the last supplier on this list is gonna be one that absolutely everyone knows about because they are the king of quick shipping. And that is Amazon. Now, of course, on Amazon, you can find pretty much anything and everything that you need with some of the quickest shipping times pretty much anywhere. Actually, no, they are the quickest shippers period. Amazon also gives you access to some pretty good analytics so that way you can see what is and what isn't selling. And on top of that, Amazon has some of the best customer service in the game. Pretty much anything that you need can be resolved through their automated system. But if it can't, you can easily reach a representative and talk to them to get your issues sorted out. It's happened to me a couple of times. I reach out to them and I don't wanna talk to the automated system so I request a talk to a live person. And I get transferred through typically within minutes and my issues are usually resolved within minutes as well. Now, typical shipping times on Amazon can range. Typically for Amazon Prime, it's gonna be one to two business days, sometimes three. But if an item isn't eligible for Amazon Prime, then it can take up to 14 business days. And that pretty much wraps it up for our list for the fastest dropshipping suppliers. Remember, if you want everything that I talked about in an easy to reference written format, all you have to do is go ahead and comment down below hashtag fast shipping and let me know which one of these suppliers was your favorite. Once I see that you commented, I'll reply back with a link to the sheet. Huge thank you to everyone for watching, especially if you made it all the way to the end.
