The market is anticipated to witness significant growth owing to an increase in preference for online shopping, coupled with the rising trend of cross-border e-commerce trade. Hence, the rise in demand for dropshipping services is predominantly influenced by the growth of the e-commerce industry. Dropshipping is the practice of selling products through online stores where the retailers do not keep a stock of goods on hand. The retailer forwards customer orders and shipment information to the wholesaler or manufacturer, who then transports the goods directly to the customer.

With the proliferation of technology, dropshipping has been a quick and fast-moving profit-making business. Dropshipping enterprises offer originality in a variety of ways in the current situation that e-commerce companies and on-demand business models are using to cope with the pandemic. Smartphones have revolutionized online shopping, with numerous mobile applications to make the consumer experience pleasant and convenient. The rising smartphone penetration, coupled with an increasing consumer disposable income, is contributing to the growth of the e-commerce market, thereby driving the demand for dropshipping services. There has been a notable increase in investments by the key players in the e-commerce industry owing to the number of shoppers inclined toward online shopping platforms. For instance, according to The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), company sales rose to 2.9 trillion in the year 2021.

Manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, dropshipping businesses, and end-users/customers make up the majority of the ecosystem's players. APAC has the most developed dropshipping industry. Retailers following conventional distribution routes are aiming to invest heavily in inventory control. However, companies are opting for dropshipping services to lower capital costs for inventory purchase/management as e-commerce platforms are getting more widely used. Additionally, as merchants are investing less in logistics and inventory, dropshipping is getting more popular.

Other elements that are anticipated to boost market expansion include lower overhead expenses and a diverse product portfolio. APAC’s booming e-commerce sector is primarily responsible for the expansion of dropshipping services. The region is home to several prominent e-commerce businesses that have attracted a sizeable portion of the populace from most of the regions. For instance, Japan is considered one of the most high-potential dropshipping countries over any other APAC country. Indian OEMs purchase products from Japanese vendors to profit from low product costs and cost-saving in their commodities, which are high due to international shipping. Many regions have automated dropshipping technologies such as DSers. This dropshipping technology emphasizes the importance of conducting product research prior to opening an online company.
