Dropshipping is an e-commerce retail model in which the seller lists products for sale without holding inventory, and instead forwards customer orders to a third-party supplier who ships directly to the buyer. It appeals to online entrepreneurs because it requires low upfront investment and no warehousing, though it typically yields thinner profit margins and less control over shipping and quality. Platforms like Shopify and marketplaces such as AliExpress are commonly used to run dropshipping stores.
