I am interested in the eCommerce business and I have been searching for legitimate Drop shipping companies. One free dropshipper suggested by a certain drop shipping directory did not support business outside the US and Canada as I was trying to register. Which reliable ones (drop shippers) are international that also support business in Swaziland? Or they are among those that require certain fees?

    Have you considered DHgate? I used it previously and the service is good but somewhat expensive, you could alternatively try alibaba.com. If you specialize on some specific products, you can build a relationship with a supplier (or directly the manufactureer sometimes) and they will provide you a good service and good prices.
    I knew some people going to China to visit the factory, all for the sake of building a relationship, but this can be done online of course.
    Be careful there are scams. A good way to verify the supplier is ask for references and contact the references.

      Whenever I see posts like this I have to, for the sake of the OP, and for others who may read the thread, suggest checking out any sourcing platform recommended.

      Go to Ripoff Report | Scams, reviews, complaints, lawsuits and frauds. File a report, post your review. Consumers educating consumers. and type in the name of the sourcing site and see what comes up.

        Hi Bongani,

        I know this is my first post here, but I clicked on a link to this thread on Google and couldn't help myself, I have to reply.

        Ok.... You want to start up an online business, try your best to avoid dropshipping. I spent a long time trying just to 'find' legit companies and I was based in the UK at the time. It's happened time and time again that you find a supplier that looks legit, you place your order after the customer has paid you and your customer gets nothing... Now you owe the customer because you have been scammed, at the end of the day, you lose out!

        I don't mean to scare you, but that's the reality. It's better to get your money in order and find decent supplier, order your goods and keep them in stock, that will mean that you are in control and if any dispute arises, that will probably be between you and the shipping company only!

        I know it depends on what you will be selling and whether or not it's worth pursuing, but dropshipping is not a 'low risk' strategy and a few bad knocks will put you off for good! Sometimes its better just to take the plunge and order your goods. At least even if they don't sell you will still be left with something and you tried, but in this day and age, nearly everything sells. If you really want help, face to face, you can find me in Matsapha. In the next 6 months I will be scaling my business and start selling online again... Yay!

        Hope this help...! Take care!
