Robust Drop Shipping Platform by Kumoten

Kumoten is Southeast Asia’s largest drop shipping platform based in Malaysia with more than a million products in its inventory. According to Kumoten’s CEO and co-founder Issac Leong, e-commerce is growing swiftly in Southeast Asia and drop shipping harmonizes with this progress. If you are planning to start an online retail business and are worried about the risk of buying stock in massive amounts from manufacturers and delivery of orders with no hassle, then implementing drop shipping can resolve this problem and assist you in running your business smoothly like never before. According to the drop shipping business model, online retailers neither have to keep products in stock and maintain a proper catalog nor have to be concerned about the order fulfillment.

How Kumoten Works?

Basically, you select the products you require and sync marketplaces using Kumoten. Once a customer places an order at the retail price set by you, Kumoten sends their order and shipment details directly to the manufacturer or wholesaler so the order can be processed further. The automated drop shipping service provider pays you your profit and remits the remaining wholesale price to the wholesaler without taking any commission. Then, Kumoten delivers the item to the buyer. By outsourcing the product sourcing and stock keeping to Kumoten, you have to only focus on marketing the products.

Benefits Of Using Kumoten
