Dropshipping is a business model that lets you sell products by using a supplier.
Got an email from Shopify urging me to join a Shopify Logistics Group where things like the following would be discussed, I want to add these features to my site - namely to be able to have my products sold seamlessly on other websites and vice versa (where we would fill our items normally and they would fill theirs direct to the consumer). Can't find the group they are talking about though or any information on any of these topics. I currently use an app called Carro that kind of does this, but the shops selling our product and listing theirs are very limited. Surprised Shopify hasn't figured this out internally yet.
Pop-up space -shelf space for “guest” merchant products
Cross-shop bundles -boost sales by selling bundled products together with other merchants
Cross-shop dropshipping -sell other merchants’ products, without having to ship their orders
Hello @Scott_Morris
It sounds like you're looking for ways to expand the reach of your Shopify store and potentially sell your products on other websites.
There are a few ways you can do this:
Use Shopify's multi-channel sales feature: This allows you to sell your products on multiple sales channels, such as Facebook, Amazon, and eBay, directly from your Shopify store.
Use a third-party app: There are many apps available in the Shopify App Store that can help you sell your products on other websites. For example, Spocket allows you to dropship products from a variety of suppliers, while Bold Brain enables you to create bundles with other merchants.
Partner with other merchants: You can reach out to other merchants who sell complementary products and see if they're interested in cross-selling or bundling your products with theirs.
It's not uncommon for Shopify to offer features and services to merchants through groups or programs that are in development or testing phases.
If you can't find the Shopify Logistics Group mentioned in the email, it's possible that it's a private group or that the information provided in the email was incorrect. You may want to try reaching out to Shopify support for more information.
Is there an light weight app for that other than Carro:

In particular, I am looking for an app to help two stores I know set up their own one on one cross-listing with automation.
