9 Best Dropshipping Suppliers in Singapore in 2024

This is an overview of the best suppliers for Singapore dropshipping.

The best dropshipping supplier that I recommend for Singapore dropshipping is Printify. The company offers several blank electronic goods that you can brand and sell. 

However, it is not only Printify that is worth your time. There are eight more. This article will show you the nine best dropshipping suppliers in Singapore. 

My criteria are: 

  • Product variation
  • Shipping, cost, and profitability
  • Reliability of supplier

After many years of dropshipping, I am confident I know what to look for in a dropshipping supplier. I made mistakes in the past—mistakes I do not want you to g through. 

In a snapshot, here is my list:

  1. Printify – best for electronics
  2. Shein Singapore – best for fashion
  3. Stock Perfume – best for perfumes and fragrances
  4. Niche Dropshipping – best for private label
  5. SaleHoo – best for general dropshipping store

If you are ready, let us get started!

Is it worth it to dropship in Singapore?

Yes, it is worth the time and effort to dropship in Singapore. The average income per capita as of 2022 is $27,919 in US dollars [1]. The amount is two-thirds of that of people in the US. 

In addition, experts predict that the eCommerce market revenue will hit $6.42 billion by the end of 2023. the annual growth rate is 12.22%, which is higher than the global growth rate of 10%. [2]

The country’s population is 5.45 million. By 2027, experts say that 4.3 million of these will shop online. At that time, the user penetration will hit 70.2%. Experts also project that the average revenue per user, ARPU, will be $1,750 by 2027. 

Now, don’t you want to get a slice of that pie? I mean, if a person spends $1,750 per year, there surely is a product you can sell to four million people, right?  

What products do Singaporeans buy? 

We know that there is a market in Singapore. However, what do Singaporeans buy the most? Based on recent statistical data, the top three sellers are: 

  • Fashion
  • Furniture
  • Toys & Hobby

In all our articles about dropship suppliers, these three top sellers keep popping up all the time. I can say that these three items are some of the most in-demand products worldwide. Below are some of my recommendations for each niche. 

1. Fashion

Fashion and banking are at the heart of Singapore’s economy. The market forecast for this niche is $2.02 billion by the end of 2023 [3].

There are three main categories of fashion items you can sell. These are accessories, clothing, and footwear. Of these three, accessories sell the most, while footwear sells the least. 

Here are some of my ideas:

  • Jewelry and other accessories
  • Women’s shoes
  • Women’s Clothing

Take a look at this chart:

As you can see, accessories sell more than the other two years after year. Projections for the future also indicate that accessories will have more demand than shoes and clothing. 

2. Electronics

Electronics refer to anything that has something to do with consumer technology. I can say without a doubt in my mind that it is one of the best niches in dropshipping for any country. By the end of 2023, each Singapore person will buy 2.3 pieces of electronic equipment [4]. 

Like what I always say, I do not recommend selling mobile phones, tablets, and laptops. In the same light, I do not recommend selling computer peripherals like chipboards, GPUs, or CPUs. These niches are too hot to handle for beginners.

The one that I recommend is electronic accessories. Below are some examples: 

  • Headsets
  • Earphones
  • Charging docks
  • Phone cases

These items are all over AliExpress and other dropship suppliers in Singapore. The best thing about it is that you can even brand them.

You can use print-on-demand suppliers to sell electronic items or contact a wholesale supplier in Alibaba. Later, I will provide you with more insights into the process. 

3. Toys & Hobby

The third top seller is toys. According to Statista, the Toy & Baby segment in Singapore will generate a revenue of $207 million by the end of 2023 [5]. The experts also say that income in this category will hit an annual growth rate of 13.35%. 

Here are some toys that I recommend you sell: 

  • Educational toys
  • Puzzles
  • Toys for teens and adults

If you think about it, even the biggest names in the toy industry, such as Mattel, Lego, and Hasbro, are transforming their toys into educational ones. 

Should you enter this niche, I recommend selling to a specific sub-niche. If possible, do not try to become Toy Kingdom, where many types of toys exist. 

For example, if you want to sell Gundam or something similar, sell Gundam only and not drones and Gundam. What this does is it tells your site visitor who you are. This approach is what we call niche-based dropshipping.

9 Best Dropshipping Suppliers for Singapore

1. Printify – best for electronics

Printify is the best choice for dropshipping electronic goods in Singapore. It has blank electronic products that you can design and sell in your Shopify store. What it means for us dropshippers is that we can penetrate the Singapore market with unique products.

Here are some examples of products you can find on the platform: 

  • Mousepads
  • Phone cases
  • Bluetooth speakers
  • Air Pods

Printify Features

  • Integration – you can integrate Printify with several platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and many more. If you do not want to build your store, you can incorporate Printify with Etsy. 
  • Design Tool – the design tool is free. Once you upload your graphic art, you can create mock-ups for your product. 
  • Product Variation – there are over 800 blank products on the site. Although it is far from a million, the main value proposition of Printify is personalization. The company is also looking for new products they add consistently to the platform. We can expect to see more as time goes by. 
  • 24/7 Support – if you have any concerns, you can chat with an agent anytime. Printify has no phone number, but you can reach them via email or chat. They also have helpful videos on how to resolve technical issues. 

Printify Pros

  • The design tool and mock-up are both accessible in the free account
  • The system is free to use
  • You can integrate the system with several platforms 

Printify Cons

  • You need to use a third-party app to get more mock-ups

Printify is a print-on-demand (POD) platform. It is a dropshipping service where you choose a product and design it according to your specifications. You also do not have to purchase in bulk. There is no minimum order requirement (MOQ) for any product.  

2. Shein Singapore – best for fashion 

Since the top seller in Singapore is fashion, you need a reliable supplier for clothing and accessories. Shein is the best in this niche because it is an Asian company. In addition, it has warehouses globally—shipping is the last concern you will ever have. 

Shein Singapore Features

  • Product Variety – there are thousands of items you can find in Shein in the fashion niche. They sell dresses, tops, swimwear, activewear, and many more. 
  • Shipping – the company offers a seven-day shipping promise for standard shipping. If the order value is over $37, shipping is free. 
  • Return Policy – they accept returns within 30 days. However, they do not accept returns for personal goods like swimwear, underwear, and lingerie. 
  • Tracking – once they ship the item, they will notify you of a tracking number. Use this to find out where the item is. 

Shein Singapore Pros

  • Lots of products to choose from
  • They offer refunds and returns
  • You can enjoy free shipping if you meet the requirement 

Shein Singapore Cons

  • There is no app to integrate 

What I like about Shein is the ridiculous amount of effort they spend on marketing. If you go to their website, you will find so many marketing images you can use for each product. The photos are also real, not mock-ups. They spend millions to pay models to wear their clothing items.

Shein has many websites. If you want to dropship to Singapore, make sure you access Shein Singapore, not their other sites. Shein does not have an app you can integrate with your store. What you must do is import the products to your store manually.

Since the process is manual, you will copy-paste images and descriptions. You must also check the availability of goods manually.

3. Stock Perfume – best for perfumes and fragrances

I have been to Singapore, and I noticed that they love perfumes. I saw stores on Orchard Road that sold expensive perfumes. Because of this, I know there is a market for it. Stock Perfume is your best bet when it comes to perfume dropshipping.

Stock Perfume Features

  • Dropshipping Support – the company has a dropshipping program. As a dropshipper, they know that you must make a profit. Because of this, they sell their perfumes to dropshipper at a low price.
  • Original Goods – Stock Perfume only sells original perfume, and they only sell branded ones. Right now, the company sells over 1,200 brands of perfumes. Overall, they have more than 60,000 products in the perfume niche. 
  • Product Variety – the company is a supplier of fragrances for men and women. They also sell make-up, personal care products, and bath and body items. 

Stock Perfume Pros

  • The perfumes are authentic
  • You can get the perfume at a lower cost
  • They have scents for men and women

Stock Perfume Cons

  • Product import is only possible with CSV upload

To become a partner of Stock Perfume, you must register for an account. They will review your Shopify dropshipping store and approve it. From here, they will share a CSV file format, which you can upload to your store. 

What I love about Stock Perfume is that original brands. You can buy perfumes from brands like Hugo Boss, Giorgio Armani, Givenchy, and many more. 

Since you are selling branded goods, finding a market should not be difficult. The only challenge you will face is credibility. These products are expensive. If you decide to sell this, make sure that you can convince your site visitors of your authenticity.

4. Niche Dropshipping – best for private label

Niche Dropshipping works best for Singapore dropshipping if you want private-label products. The company focuses on making suppliers and dropshippers meet. I recommend it to dropshippers who want to start creating their brand. 

Niche Dropshipping Features

  • Dropshipping Agent – once you sign up for an account, the company will assign a dropshipping agent to take care of your business. This agent will be your liaison officer. He will answer all your questions. 
  • Sourcing Services – you no longer have to spend so much time looking for suppliers. If there is a product you want, tell the team, and they will look for a supplier.
  • Bulk Dropshipping – the company specializes in private-label dropshipping. It means that you can ask their partners to manufacture products for you. The products will be your brand and will meet your specifications. 

Niche Dropshipping Pros

  • You can do private label dropshipping
  • They will assign an agent to help you
  • They have warehousing and fulfillment services

Niche Dropshipping Cons

  • The system is ideal for bulk dropshipping only

For bulk dropshipping, you must meet a minimum order requirement. This minimum depends on the kind of product you want them to make. You will pay for it and then also pay for warehousing services. Once a customer orders from your store, the Niche Dropshipping team will process the shipment. 

Niche Dropshipping ships worldwide. However, there is no standard rate. The shipping cost depends on your product’s size, weight, and destination. You will only know this cost once your products are final (along with the branding or packaging).

5. SaleHoo – best for general dropshipping store

SaleHoo is a dropship supplier database. It is one of the biggest, and it also has global suppliers. I recommend it for Singapore dropshipping because all suppliers here went through a vetting process.

SaleHoo Features

  • Dropship Supplier List – the company has over 8,000 suppliers in the system. As such, you can expect to find many products to sell in your Singapore dropshipping store. Not all suppliers are from China. Some are from Europe. 
  • Reliability – all suppliers went through an approval process. It is not as if they just signed up for an account to become a supplier. You have a guarantee that you can depend on them. If they make mistakes, you can report them to SaleHoo, and the SaleHoo team will take action. 
  • Online Course and Guides – SaleHoo has many videos and guides to help you succeed in the dropshipping industry.
  • Market Research Lab – a tool in SaleHoo shows you how profitable a product is. In it, you will know if a product is even worth selling. The tool gives you access to hard data—information that can help you make an informed decision. 

SaleHoo Pros

  • There is an analysis tool to find winning products
  • More than 8,000 reliable suppliers are in the system 
  • There is a training video series to help you succeed 

SaleHoo Cons

  • The system only integrates with Shopify 

Right now, you can only integrate SaleHoo with Shopify. I know that this sounds bad. However, there are other ways by which you can use the platform to your advantage. 

I recommend that you use SaleHoo if you want to build a general dropshipping store. My logic for this is the fact that all their suppliers are legit. As such, you can keep picking products to sell and rest assured that you will have no major problems.

6. Printful – best for clothing

Printful is also a print-on-demand company. The difference between this and Printify is that Printful offers more garments than the latter. As such, it can help you fulfill your dropshipping goals in Singapore, provided that you want to enter the fashion niche. 

Printful Features

  • Printing Techniques – you can choose from three printing techniques with Printful. The ones they offer are direct-to-garment, all-over, and embroidery. You can only select embroidery if you have a paid plan. It is not available on the free plans. 
  • Integrations – you will find it amazing that Printful integrates with over a dozen platforms. Some examples are WooCommerce, Shopify, BigCommerce, PrestaShop, and many more. 
  • Product Choices – Printful offers more products than Printify, but less with electronics. With Printful, you can also sell accessories such as tote bags, fanny packs, hair accessories, face masks, and others. 

Printful Pros

  • Lots of clothing items to choose from
  • There are multiple global suppliers
  • They offer several types of prints

Printful Cons

  • You must upgrade to access different print quality or technique

Printful is free to use. Like Printify, it has a free design and mock-up tool. From experience, I can say that Printful has more mock-ups than the latter. 

Use Printful if you want to sell clothes and accessories. My advice is that you concentrate on a theme. For example, you can sell yoga products or active wear and develop your brand or “voice” in that theme. 

It is important to add that Printful does not ship to all countries. While it does have shipping services in most nations, it does not send access with restrictions. Some examples are Cuba, Iran, Crimea, North Korea, and Syria.

7. Spocket – best for Shopify

Spocket is the best tool for Singapore dropshipping if you are on the Shopify platform. The two sites integrate seamlessly. In addition, I recommend Spocket to you if you want to source from US and EU suppliers. 

Spocket Features

  • Integrations – Spocket integrates with several platforms, not just Shopify. Some examples are Wix, BigCommerce, and Ecwid. You can also integrate it with eBay if you want. 
  • Filters – if you want to choose products from a specific country, you can do so with Spocket. Its search filter has a “ships from” option. As such, you can filter products that come from a specific country or region. 
  • Category – there are over a dozen categories of products that Spocket offers. You can sell jewelry, accessories, clothing, bath and beauty products, etc. However, Spocket does not offer print-on-demand services. All these are ready-made products.

Spocket Pros

  • There is a filter option for researching products
  • There are international suppliers
  • The system comes with import and fulfillment processes 

Spocket Cons

  • The system is not really free to use; you must pay to use the features that matter

Spocket is free to use. However, the free plan only allows you to browse the products. You cannot use the import system at all. If you want to use the design on your dropshipping store, you must subscribe to at least the Starter Plan, which costs about $30 per month. 

8. CJDropshipping – best for Lazada

CJDropshipping is a Chinese company that warehouses products. It also fulfills orders for dropshippers. It is an ideal partner for Singapore dropshipping because it is close to Singapore. CJDropshipping also has several warehouses in the world. 

CJDropshipping Features

One feature that stands out with CJ is that they will look for suppliers on your behalf. These suppliers allow one order at a time. You do not have to order in bulk. 

CJDropshipping Pros

  • They have a sourcing service for a product you like
  • The system integrates with several major platforms
  • They have a separate print-on-demand service

CJDropshipping Cons

  • The shipping takes too long
  • The customer service department is not that helpful

I also like that CJ connects or integrates with several platforms, including Lazada and Shopee. Lazada and Shopee are the Asian equivalents of Amazon. If you want to dropship in these online marketplaces, CJDropshipping is your ultimate solution. 

9. AppScenic – best for furniture

AppScenic is a high-end dropship supplier. Since furniture is one of the most in-demand products in Singapore, it only makes sense that you penetrate this niche. 

AppScenic Features

  • Automation – the entire process of AppScenic uses automation. The system will place orders even without your intervention. 
  • Integration – you can integrate AppScenic with Shopify, WooCommerce, Wix, and eBay. 
  • Academy – AppScenic recently released its academy. Here, you will learn the best practices of how-to dropship properly. I suggest you take the online course before starting your dropshipping journey with them. The academy shows you how to use the AppScenic platform to your advantage. 

AppScenic Pros

  • They offer high-quality products
  • They automate the entire dropshipping process
  • They have Us, EU, and Canadian suppliers

AppScenic Cons

  • The premium products are only accessible if you upgrade

Use AppScenic if you want to target upper-level earners in Singapore. The items in AppScenic are a bit pricey. However, you also have a guarantee that they are of high quality.
