Dropshipping is a business model that involves selling products online without having to stock or handle them. Dropshipping sellers can source products from third-party suppliers and ship them directly to customers without any inventory or warehousing costs.
One of the dropshipping sellers that adopted this business model was GHI, a company that sells home and garden products online. GHI had an online store that offered a variety of products, such as furniture, lighting, decor, etc.
GHI needed a reliable and cost-effective logistics partner that could help them source and ship products from China, where most of their products were available and affordable, to their customers worldwide.
