Dropshipping vs. own warehouse: which is the right way?

Are you in e-commerce and wondering which route to take: dropshipping or your own warehouse? In this article, we'll look at the pros and cons of both approaches and why choosing an experienced and flexible logistics partner like Cella can make sense in both cases.

The world of dropshipping

Before we delve deeper, let's briefly consider the dropshipping approach. In the dropshipping business, you don't need your own warehouse. You work closely with suppliers who ship the products directly to your customers as soon as orders come in. This means:

  • You save money as you have no storage costs.
  • You can offer a wide range of products without having to manage physical stocks.
  • You are flexible and can work from anywhere.

Why have your own warehouse?

Well, that sounds great, doesn't it? But there are also situations in which having your own warehouse can be useful:

  • Faster delivery times: With your own warehouse, you can process orders faster and keep your customers happy. This is particularly important if you are focusing on fast delivery.
  • Quality control: You have control over the storage and shipping of products. This means you can ensure that the quality is right and that no damaged items are shipped.
  • Exclusive products: If you offer unique or customized products, having your own warehouse may be the best way to store and ship them.
