Dropshipping
Dropshipping is a fulfillment model where the store never holds inventory: when an order lands, a supplier ships the product straight to the customer. It lowers startup cost and risk in exchange for thinner margins and less control over shipping speed and quality. Dropshipping apps automate the supplier connection — catalog import, order routing, and tracking sync.
