Looking for some things to import from Alibaba and sell on Amazon? We’ve got just the list for you. If you’re interested in selling stuff online, there’s no better place to do that than on Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN). One way to gain huge profit is to buy products at a low cost from Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:BABA) and sell them on Amazon for a fair amount.
Wondering what items to import? This article can help you decide on the 10 things to import from Alibaba and sell on Amazon. With thousands of competitors out there, it’s certainly not easy to find a good niche, but this list should provide a starting point for popular items that can be had at a cheap price.
There are things you should remember, though, before sealing a deal with a supplier from Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:BABA). First, take time to shop around and do thorough research to find the most reliable supplier. As much as possible, find the original manufacturer or the exclusive distributor of the products you are planning to sell. It can be a little bit difficult, but you can save a lot by not letting a middleman get in the way.
Second, while everything is negotiable with Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:BABA) sellers, avoid too much haggling and pushing on an unreasonable price or deal. Remember that in any purchase, you’ll always get what you pay for, so if you don’t want the quality to be compromised, be reasonable enough in negotiating with an Alibaba merchant or product manufacturer.

This list of the 10 items you can source from Alibaba and sell on your Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) store is derived from Alibaba’s top selling products in 2017. Since the results were based on specific products, which may be slightly too narrow of a view, we instead decided to use the category they belonged to, so you have many opportunities to find relevant items to buy and sell. The list is a bit of a double-edged sword in the sense that some of the items that have sold really well on Alibaba may already be ending up on Amazon, but it nonetheless showcases items that people are buying a lot of on one platform, which should translate to similar sales when brought to another platform.
