Drop Shipping
The English term for online sales without inventory, namely, drop shipping means getting the goods from the wholesaler/company/manufacturer and delivering it to the customer. In this method, you are a retailer but the one without any facility, physical structure, warehouse or shop.
In the real world, even if you want to launch a grocery store, you need to rent a shop and have enough capital to buy goods. However, in this method, you don’t need any capital for renting a place or buying goods because you are backed by the warehouse of another company. You just need to ship the goods to the end-users from the warehouse.
You post the wholesaler’s catalog on your website and when a product is sold, you buy it from the wholesaler and deliver it to the customer. Ready-to-use stores such as Shopify provide you with such platform.
