Quality garments for printing and drop shipping

[Garfieldco]

Hi there,

I’m new to shopify and could really do with some guidance on finding a supplier to drop shipping garments (t-shirts and hoodies) 

I already have a supplier in Barcelona that provides a digital printing services on Guildan blanks but they don’t offer drop shipping. I’m based in Barcelona so I’ve been physically picking the garments up. Going forward i want the customer to be able order the stock from my site with the items being shipped straight from the supplier to the customer. I’d like to know what process i would need to follow to find a supplier that will drop ship, provide blanks (preferably guildan) and also offer printing services. Could anyone who has been through this process please reach out with some advise? 🙂 

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,
Sam

Hey @Garfieldco 

Congratulations on your new store! I can appreciate why you would like to take the extra legwork out of shipping the t-shirts and hoodies yourself. Using a service that prints and ships the items to your customers would make things a lot easier for you.

We have a couple of print on-demand apps within our  Shopify app store here if you wanted to have a look.

• One app that I think may suit your business needs would be this app called Printful. This is a popular app among our merchants and is free to install, so you could test it out first to see if it suits your needs. With Printful, you can print your designs on their products and sell them via your Shopify store. Printful will pack and ship the orders to your customers for you, and you will only pay once a customer buys from you.
  
  
  
  
• Another great contender would be the app called SPOD. With this app it offers the same services as Printful above, however orders are produced within 48 hours or less and shipped in under 24 hours, which is definitely a great service to offer! This is also free to install.

To help you out and provide you with some more context on how Print on-demand works, check out our blog on Print On Demand here. It's full of useful information about your niche and offers some more apps which you could take a look at.

How are you finding things on your new store so far? I'd love to help you out with some business growth ideas. Have an awesome day!
