A dropshipping business model can work for many types of businesses—the only thing you must have is an online store. Brick-and-mortar businesses can partner with their suppliers to offer dropshipping on online sales—even on items they also sell in their retail store. Ecommerce stores can add select dropshipped products to their online offerings, allowing online business owners to offer more products without taking on additional risk. Or you can set up an online dropshipping store that uses dropshipping as its exclusive fulfillment method. The choice is yours.
