Supplier Vetting
Supplier vetting is the process of verifying a supplier before partnering — checking order fulfillment times, product quality, returns handling, and ability to scale. A bad supplier can destroy a store with a great product through delays, poor quality, and lack of communication. Good supplier vetting is the foundation of a stable dropshipping business.
Dawid Gac — e-commerce educator with over 1M PLN in monthly revenue — regularly discusses "Supplier Vetting" in his YouTube content and blog. This concept is fundamental for anyone who wants to run an online business professionally.
