Other categories with the best dropshipping products in 2024
Now that you know the categories with the best dropshipping products to sell we leave you with some other categories that can make you stand out and that are also among the best-selling products.
What are the key qualities of an ideal dropshipping product?
This list of categories is based on our own data and our experience of more than a decade as dropshipping suppliers, but we encourage you to do your own research and invest time in deciding which products to sell before launching into the world of ecommerce. Here are some tips on how to choose the ideal dropshipping product:
- Attractive price: this will depend on the target audience. If your target audience is luxury or premium, then consumers who value exclusivity and superior quality are willing to pay more. If your target audience is the general public then the price should be more competitive and attractive.
- High and constant demand: it is important that the product is in high demand, and if possible constant throughout the year. Although we can complement our shop with seasonal products, it is best that most of the products we sell are in constant demand.
- Added value: Products with special features and which therefore offer added value to customers are often very well received. In addition, you will also be able to set a higher price as they are perceived as higher value products.
- Profit margin: it is essential that the product or products you choose for dropshipping have a sufficient profit margin to cover both operational and marketing costs in order to make a profit.
- Little competition: although it is not essential, if you find products with high demand and little competition you will have hit the nail on the head as it will be much easier to help you stand out and generate sales.
- Good reviews: if there are already other sellers, look at the reviews that users have given of that product. If the reviews are positive, it is very likely to be an ideal product for dropshipping. On the other hand, if the reviews are negative, it will only give you headaches.
How to transform your product catalogue to align with the latest trends?
Something you should bear in mind is that trends are very changeable and what is a top-selling product today may be superseded tomorrow by a new product. It is therefore essential to be very attentive to new trends if you want to continue growing.
How can we keep up with the latest new products and trends?
It is essential to monitor social media, especially platforms such as Instagram or TikTok, and Pinterest will give us clues to trends.
Checking marketplaces and other sales platforms can also help, we can check their “best sellers” or “trends” sections.
You can also use research and analysis tools such as Ubersuggest or Google Trends to check the search volume for your products and check out the trend.
Finally, to keep up to date with the latest news, it is useful to subscribe to various industry blogs and news sites. However, we consider it essential to have a specialised dropshipping provider such as BigBuy.
As the European leader in dropshipping, with a catalogue of over 400,000 items, we have a team dedicated to researching the market and selecting the best products. This allows us to always be at the forefront of market trends and innovations.

In short, choosing the right categories for your dropshipping shop can make a big difference to your success. By focusing on in-demand products and emerging niches, you’ll have a better chance of capturing your customers’ attention and maximising your profits.
