AliExpress must be the most well-known platform with millions of products and dropshipping suppliers. Oberlo is also a great Shopify plugin that works well with AliExpress. With the growing popularity of dropshipping, more and more excellent platforms and applications are pouring into the market to meet more needs of dropshippers, so that they will have more choices.

So among so many dropshipping suppliers, platforms, and apps, which ones stand out?
This article will introduce you to 9 excellent and potential dropshipping suppliers, platforms, and apps in 2022.

1. SourcinBox - Dropshipping Agent

 

SourcinBox is not a supplier or a directory of suppliers but a dropshipping agent company that specializes in dropshipping fulfillment services. It is an all-in-one platform that helps dropshippers source products directly from manufacturers or suppliers at better prices, check the quality, pack, and ship directly to the customers with fast shipping.

Pricing

 

There’s no monthly fee, sourcing service fee, or inventory fee required to work with SourcinBox.

 

Key Features

 

 • Fast Processing & Shipping-The processing time before shipping usually takes 3-5 days. But if you keep inventory in the SourcinBox warehouse, the processing time can be 1 day. SourcinBox can provide amazingly fast shipping, even from China to worldwide. There are multiple shipping options include Yun Express, Yanwen Express, ePacket, CNE, 4PX, USPS, DHL, UBI, etc. It is only 5-8 days from China to the US with USPS. And you can choose different shipping methods for each customer.
 • Lower Prices-There are 2 reasons why SourcinBox has lower prices. One is that SourcinBox sources products directly from manufacturers who sell products at wholesale prices. The other is that the product price and the shipping price are separate, which is more reasonable. The shipping price only depends on the weight of the product, the delivery country, and the shipping method.
 • 1-On-1 Customer Manager Service-People who signs up with SourcinBox will get a 1-on-1 customer manager to help you with any problem with patience and fluent communication.

Cons

 

 • No Overseas Warehouse-SourcinBox only has a warehouse located in Hangzhou, China.
 • Lack Of Popularity-SourcinBox is not a very well-known dropshipping platform now. When it comes to dropshipping platforms, the first thing that comes to your mind may be AliExpress, Oberlo, Spocket, CJdropshipping, etc. You’ll need some research to find out that SourcinBox is also a reliable dropshipping platform.
