1. Where can I find the supply of goods in Shopee's no-supply model?

Offline purchase:

Offline purchases can be divided into three categories:

1. Own factory

2. Reliable factory supply

3. Purchase in wholesale markets. Offline purchases can ensure product quality, have the opportunity to obtain brand authorization from manufacturers, and reduce the probability of store fines or trading suspension risks due to product infringement. However, there are purchase costs such as minimum order quantities, which require capital.

1. A drop shipping platform that specializes in foreign trade. For example, Guantong Distribution Platform, which specializes in the distribution of overseas warehouse spot goods, provides a drop shipping business with relatively less financial pressure. The products are also equipped with pictures and professional English descriptions. Branded products are all authorized for sale, so you don’t have to worry about infringement issues.

2. Provide a platform for product wholesale business. Online scattered purchases are made on B2B platforms such as 1688. Alibaba's global wholesale procurement platform gathers various manufacturers, many of which provide wholesale business, and the products are also equipped with pictures, patents and other services. However, these manufacturers need to purchase according to the minimum order quantity.

The process of dropshipping products on Shopee is similar to that of dropshipping products on general e-commerce channels. First, products from other channels are put on the Shopee store. After a buyer places an order on Shopee, the merchant places an order on the channel and fills in the buyer's address to ship the goods to the buyer. All a dropshipper needs to do is to operate the buyer's order information on the corresponding channel once and fill in the buyer's address and other delivery information.

When the number of orders is small, Shopee stores can manually fill in the buyer's delivery information, but when the number of orders is large, it is too much to fill in, and it takes a lot of time and energy. At this time, merchants who do one-stop shipping can use the drop shipping software to operate the product one-click order like merchants who do one-stop shipping through other channels. There is no need to advance the money yourself.

Generally speaking, if Shopee does not have a source of goods, you do not need to advance payment. If you are asked to advance payment, it is a scam. So merchants should not advance payment easily.
