Hey Nasgo,
Welcome to the world of drop shipping! Nice to have you here. I’ve been running a successful drop shipping business for over 3 years now. I remember being at the stage where you are now, looking for a supplier. When I started my search for a supplier, which also began in forums, others would suggest using a directory. However, in those days most directories charged membership fees and I had very little money at the time with no job or regular income.
Once my drop shipping business became successful, it required only a few hours of work each day to maintain. Therefore, to make use of my free time, I decided to build my own supplier directory. However, unlike others, the directory I built is completely free to use. In fact, you don’t even need to sign up or create an account. It’s an old-school publicly accessible directory with a wide selection suppliers. It’s also worthwhile pointing out that all of the suppliers were manually reviewed and approved before being listed in the directory.
I understand that you’re looking for USA based drop shipping suppliers that specialise in a range of categories, not just one category specifically. We have many different drop shippers from the USA specialising in various product categories.
If my directory sounds of use to you, be sure to check it out here: wholesalefrog.com
Another option is to contact wholesalers directly. I made the mistake of simply looking for drop shippers. Drop shipping isn’t a priority for most wholesalers. However, that doesn’t mean they won’t or can’t do it. Therefore, it’s worthwhile reaching out to wholesalers to ask them, even if they don’t make it clear on their website. You may be able to find a golden opportunity.
Alternatively you could just keep doing what you’re doing - studying and posting in forums. It’s the best way to find those little known suppliers that you could have otherwise missed. You never know what you might find.
All the best with your business!
Paul
