 Finding a reliable dropshipping supplier can sometimes be annoying, to say the least. When you have your own e-commerce business and you're using a particular supplier to sell, let's say, on Etsy or on eBay, that same supplier might not always be the best one to go with if you're selling on a platform like Shopify. Now, because of that, in this video, we're going to be covering 17 of the best dropshipping suppliers that you can use for your Shopify store. Actually let's make that 18 suppliers. At the end of this video, I'm going to go ahead and throw in an extra little bonus. So make sure you watch all the way through. All right, so without waiting any longer, let's go ahead and roll that intro and let's get started. What's going on, everyone?

Now if you want to learn more about any of these suppliers that I'm going to be covering in this video, then just make sure to check out the description down below. I'm going to have a link to the relevant article down there. So before we get started, I want to know one thing. What is your current favorite supplier and what do you like about them? Let me know down in the comments below. So let's go ahead and get started with the countdown and the first supplier on this list that we're going to be covering is CJ dropshipping. Now CJ dropshipping is a China based company, but they have a massive selection of products. Now CJ dropshipping is a pretty generic website, meaning they're not really niched down to any specific category. So you can really find almost any type of product on that website. CJ dropshipping also doesn't have a minimum order quantity or depending on the type of product, they could have a very low minimum order quantity. Now just like any other suppliers website, you can potentially come across a few issues, most notably some of them being either communication issues or quality control issues. But don't fret because honestly that's a pretty easy fix. For one, just order a few samples, order a sample of a particular product from a specific supplier on the website on CJ dropshipping and see how quick you get it. See the quality of the product and if it's worth selling. Also, when it comes to communication issues, that's also a super easy fix. All you have to do is send them a couple of messages prior to actually making them your dedicated supplier. So send them an email or two, ask them a couple of questions and see if communication is effective. If it's not, then just look for a different one. Now the last note that I do want to touch on for CJ dropshipping is one of my favorites and it's actually that they offer private labeling services. So if you have your own brand or if you have your own logo, you can contact some of the suppliers or manufacturers within CJ dropshipping to have them ship your products with your printed logo on the packaging. Now up next in our second spot, we have a multinational corporation that is member exclusive and we're talking about none other than Costco. Costco offers some of the best possible prices and customer service with some of the fastest shipping times. And the best part is they have global shipping. Honestly, if you're using Costco as one of your dropshipping suppliers, you can't really go wrong. Costco is absolutely fantastic with some of the best possible customer service. So if you ever have any issues, they'll take care of you. Just reach out to them. Also, one thing that a lot of people don't really like too much about Costco is the fact that they have membership fees. Now the membership fees typically come in the form of a one time payment per year. Honestly speaking, it's not that much. When you make your first three or four sales, you're pretty much going to be covering the entire fee already. Now, if you don't want to pay the fee, then you can still purchase from Costco, but every single transaction that you make is going to be about 5% more. Up next in our third spot, we have another member exclusive supplier. And this case is going to be Sam's Club. Now Sam's Club like Costco offers some fantastic prices, but it outshines Costco in one tiny little aspect. And that's the fact that Sam's Club actually has its own private brand. Now, when you're shopping from suppliers or pretty much any store that offers their own brand, you can rest assured that you're going to be getting some way better prices on those particular items. Sam's Club also offers some member exclusive perks. So every once in a while, you can enjoy some extra member exclusive discounts or a few other different types of perks like that. Now, when it comes time to sourcing your products and actually making a purchase from Sam's Club, unfortunately, they only accept the major credit cards. And that's pretty much the only payment methods that they currently accept. So if you're using PayPal or any other type of payment method, then you're not going to be able to use that. You're going to have to use either debit or a credit card. Now, if you do want to use something like PayPal, then what you can do is you can make the purchase actually directly through AutoDS. So if you connect your dropshipping store to the AutoDS platform, you can then use fulfilled by AutoDS to be able to top up a balance, which can be used to make the purchase. Now, when it comes to Sam's Club's return policy, that can also be a little bit scattered. The return policies really do depend on the item category. So something like electronics will have a different return policy than, let's say, toys. In order to combat this and just make things a lot simpler, you can just have one generic return policy that encompasses everything under your Shopify store. Up next on our number fourth spot for top Shopify dropshipping suppliers is DHgate. Now, DHgate is another Chinese based company that offers an extensive network of suppliers. On DHgate, you're going to be finding tons of products with some pretty low prices, as well as some pretty good customer service. On top of that, they also offer global shipping. So you can ship anywhere around the world. And as an added little bonus, another cool thing about DHgate is the fact that they have a buyer protection program. So if there's any problems with an order, then you can just reach out to DHgate and they'll take care of you. Now, on the DHgate, you are gonna have to shop around a little bit and test out a few different products to make sure that you have the best possible quality suppliers. A few people have said that, depending on the supplier that you're purchasing from, the quality on products can be a bit inconsistent. That's something that's easily remedied. Just make a few purchases, purchase a few different products from a few different suppliers and just check the quality for yourself. Then you can make the decision on whether you wanna stick to a particular supplier, or if you wanna look for a different one. Up next on our number five spot, this supplier is actually niched down to home and outdoor supplies. And we're talking about Costway. Costway has a pretty large product catalog that is niched down to home and outdoor supplies. On top of that, they have some outstanding customer service and best of all, they have a three month product warranty. So if your customer receives their item and there's any issues within those three months, that item can be replaced or refunded. Costway offers worldwide shipping with domestic orders shipping within two days. Up next on our number six spot with one of the biggest product catalogs in the game is Alibaba. Now Alibaba has wholesale pricing and private labeling services. With that wholesale pricing though, does come a minimum order quantity. Now that can really vary depending on the product or the seller that you're sourcing from, but it's best to reach out to your supplier or reach out to the seller and get some more information. So up until now, all of the suppliers that we've talked about have been wholesale suppliers. Now going forward, all of these suppliers that I'm gonna start mentioning are gonna be retail suppliers. And remember, if you want any more information on any of the suppliers that I'm talking about in this video, then just go ahead and check out the description down below. There's gonna be a link to the relevant article down there. So kicking off our retail suppliers list with one of the largest catalogs in the game and some of the best possible customer service and fastest shipping times, we have Walmart. Now Walmart is absolutely fantastic because on top of everything that I just listed, they also have a price match policy. So let's say you're sourcing a lamp from Walmart and you purchase it for $25. The very next day, it goes down to $18. You can go ahead and contact Walmart and they'll actually refund you the difference. Now on Walmart, you can pretty much find any niche or any product that you're looking for. And on top of that, they also ship globally. Now this next retail drop shipping supplier is one that pretty much everyone knows and everyone starts off with them. This supplier is awesome to test out different products and to find new products to sell. And we're talking about none other than AliExpress. Now AliExpress offers a massive product catalog with some of the lowest prices in the game. You're gonna find some pretty cheap prices at AliExpress. Now if you're having issues finding products to sell, then AliExpress also has the AliExpress drop ship center. There you can find top selling products and how they've been performing. So if we look over here, you can see all of the different products that they offer. You can also see that they have a few statistics. So they have a star rating as well as how many units have been sold. Now AliExpress does tend to have some pretty slow shipping times, but there's a little work around for that and it just requires a little bit of work. All you have to do is when you're on the product page, just go ahead and scroll down and look where it says the shipping information. Go ahead and click on that and then you're gonna have a few different options. Most of the time, the free shipping is gonna take quite some time and there's gonna be a few other options that you can pay maybe five or six dollars for to be able to get it a few weeks quicker. In this case, the free shipping is actually probably the better option because it's free shipping and you get it by July 3rd, but you can also see that there's a few other options even though these are a bit more expensive. Now this is just an example. Depending on the product and depending on a seller, you're gonna have a completely different list of options. In our third spot for Shopify retail dropshipping suppliers, we have Etsy. Now Etsy is awesome because it's filled with small business owners and when you're shopping from a small business owner, chances are you're gonna be getting some pretty good customer service. Etsy offers tons of unique personalized and handmade goods. All of these items are gonna range in a wide variety of niches so you can find just about anything you need on Etsy. Now shipping on Etsy can vary. It really depends on the seller and how long it takes them to either make or source their products. But generally speaking on the product listings page, you can always find how long it's gonna take the supplier to ship out the item. For the most part, you're gonna find global shipping on Etsy as well. So you can expect to be able to ship to any customer around the world. Up next we have Banggood. Now Banggood offers a wide variety of products with some pretty quick shipping times. On top of that, they always have some sort of promotion going on. So as soon as you log on to the page, you're gonna be prompted with a coupon code that you can use to save a couple bucks on one of your orders. And remember that a dollar saved is a dollar earned. Banggood also has a loyalty program that can help you save a couple of extra dollars by offering some member exclusive discounts. In our fifth spot, for retail drop shipping suppliers for Shopify, we have one that specializes in the home and furniture niche. And that's overstock.com. Overstock always has some sort of deal or promotion going on to help you save a couple bucks. On top of that, they also have their club over rewards program and they have a price match guarantee. Now, if you're using overstock as one of your suppliers, then I highly do suggest that you sign up for the club over rewards program. Having that alone can help you save 5% on any order. Now, the shipping from overstock can vary. The prices on that can vary depending on the item that you're buying and the smaller the product, the cheaper the shipping's most likely gonna be and the bigger the product, the more likely it is to be a bit more expensive to ship. Whenever you're selecting your products to drop ship, just make sure to check out the shipping and around how much it's gonna cost. Now this next supplier is one of the fastest growing ones that I've seen. They specialize in clothing and accessories in the retail market. I just can't get over how fast they've been growing. They started off as something small and now they're huge and I'm talking about Shine. Now Shine has a massive catalog of clothing and accessories and best of all, they have some really low prices. For retail pricing, their prices are absolutely phenomenal. You can really make a good profit when you're sourcing from Shine. On top of that, they always have some sort of deal or promotion going on and if they don't, there's always a coupon that you can use. So you're always gonna be saving some money when you're sourcing from Shine. Now one little downside about Shine that a few people have been coming up with and mentioning is the fact that some of their sizing is inconsistent. So what you can do to combat this is either order a couple of samples and see how it is or add the sizing measurements to your website so that way the customers know exactly what they're getting and how it's gonna fit. Now this next supplier in the retail market is probably everyone's favorite. I know for sure it's my favorite and I know hands down it's definitely my wife's favorite store and I'm talking about the ever popular Target. Target has some of the best possible customer service. They have some of the highest quality items and the return policy is awesome. Target has a 90 day return policy and if you're a red card holder, you get an extra 30 days added on to the standard return policy. Now the red card is an awesome membership program that offers you free shipping and 5% discount on all of your orders. Now when you're sourcing from Target, you are gonna notice that some of the prices are a bit higher and that's because they themselves are a retail store. So they're not really drop shipper friendly but using something like the red card rewards program can help guarantee you a couple of extra bucks and profit. Now next up we have another retail supplier that specializes in home and furniture and that's gonna be Wayfair. Wayfair has an extensive product line free shipping and they have their My Way rewards program. Now the My Way rewards program is actually really cool because it gives you access to some member exclusive items. The regular consumer that's not enrolled in the program will not have access to those. Now when you're sourcing your products from Wayfair you are gonna notice that their products also are a little bit more expensive but that's really due to the fact that they have some pretty high quality items. So ultimately the price hike is justified. In this case, it's really simple. All you have to do is just increase the price that you're selling it for and just make sure that you note that this is a high quality item and just make it look like it's worth the price. So on your drop shipping store or your products page make sure you make the layout really clean, make sure it looks good, easy to navigate because that's gonna build trust in your customer and they're gonna feel comfortable spending the extra few dollars. Next up on our list of Shopify drop shipping retail suppliers, we have eBay. Now eBay is awesome because you can find literally anything on there. You can really source absolutely anything that you can think of. Now there's a lot of sellers on eBay selling pretty much the exact same thing. That means that you can find the same products that you're trying to source for cheaper. So that way you can sell them for a markup on your Shopify store. eBay also offers buyer protection. So if there's any issues between you and the seller or if you never receive your product or if your customer never receives their product you can reach out to eBay and they'll take care of everything for you. Now another cool thing about using eBay as a supplier is the fact that you can spy on competition. So you can go to other people's stores you can see what they're selling how much you're selling at four and what their shipping times are. On top of that you can also see some of the seller history. So you can see how many of a particular item have sold and how long it's taken to sell that many items. Now when it comes to the shipping shipping times will vary depending on the seller that you're purchasing from but you can expect to have worldwide shipping. Up next specializing in the home improvement niche we have Home Depot. Now Home Depot has tons of different products that are geared towards home improvement and home decor. Home Depot offers free delivery as well as a price match guarantee. They also have a tax exemption program. So if your business is exempt from taxes meaning you don't have to pay taxes you can go ahead and register with them and you won't pay any taxes on any of your purchases. They also have membership programs that can get you exclusive deals exclusive discounts and rewards. Now when it comes to the places that you can ship to Home Depot is limited to the United States, Mexico and Canada. So if you wanna drop ship to any of those three different countries you can. Anything else unfortunately you're not gonna be able to. Now in our last spot for the top retail drop shipping suppliers for Shopify we have one of the most notable ones that absolutely everyone knows about and pretty much anybody shops from and that's Amazon. When you're shopping on Amazon you can expect literally some of the quickest shipping times. Using Amazon Prime you have next day shipping you have some of the best possible customer service whenever you have any issues you can reach out to them and they'll help you out. I've done that quite a few times and their customer service has always been on point. Now when it comes to using Amazon as a supplier sometimes Amazon doesn't really like people drop shipping their products but there is a great way to be able to go around that and avoid any account restrictions or account suspensions and that's simply by using fulfilled by AutoDS. Whenever somebody places an order on your drop shipping store AutoDS is gonna go ahead and take that order and place the order with your supplier on your behalf but instead of using your credentials or your buyer account AutoDS is gonna use its own buyer accounts so that way your accounts are never gonna be touched. On top of that it's gonna use a balance that you top up to make the purchase. Now since your account or your email is never gonna be used when making this transaction you don't have to worry about your account being restricted or your account being suspended. Now of course after the item ships AutoDS will go ahead and take that tracking number and update your customer with it. It really automates the entire thing and it just makes it a lot easier. Now at the beginning of the video I did promise you an extra little bonus in the form of another supplier and here it is. So AutoDS we're actually suppliers ourselves. We have entered the supplier market in two different ways. So I'm already logged into my AutoDS account and over at the marketplace I'm gonna go ahead and switch over the supplier to AutoDS suppliers. Now when this loads up you're gonna see a few different options. For one you're gonna see AutoDS suppliers and you're gonna see the AutoDS warehouse. Now when you see AutoDS suppliers those are private suppliers that have signed up to sell their items through AutoDS. And when you see AutoDS warehouse that's the actual AutoDS warehouse. That's our warehouse shipping out products. Now when you're sourcing from AutoDS you have some pretty quick shipping times. Now in the case of this private supplier you can see that it has six to nine business days for shipping. Now just to be clear that's not six to nine business days for the supplier to actually send out their item. That's six to nine business days for your customer to receive their item from the time that they place their order. So that's really fast shipping. Now when it comes to the AutoDS warehouse it's about the same thing. You can see that this one in particular has nine to 12 business days. Now an extra little bonus that you have when sourcing your products from the AutoDS warehouse is the fact that you can include your branding. So currently we offer custom thank you cards with your logo on them. And coming soon we're also gonna have custom packaging where you can upload your own logo. So that way the products ship branded with your brand on it. Now if you do wanna try this out if you wanna check out our private suppliers and our warehouse you can sign up to AutoDS right now for just $1 for the trial period. And there you have the top drop shipping suppliers that you can use for your Shopify store. Huge thank you to everyone for watching today especially if you made it all the way to the end.
