The Netherlands and Belgium are among the most active Shopify dropshipping regions in the EU. With high purchasing power and a strong appetite for trending products — like home gadgets, pet accessories, innovative tools, and TikTok winners — both markets present major opportunities.
However, the competition is fierce. Many local sellers are already well-established, testing high volumes of products daily and scaling quickly. That’s why your backend operations — sourcing, fulfillment, shipping, and branding — matter more than ever.
🌍 Dual-Market Opportunity: NL & BE
Most Dutch Shopify sellers don’t just serve the Netherlands — they often expand into Belgium due to language overlap and shared logistics routes. Increasingly, Dutch dropshippers are also growing into wider EU markets and even the US.🛍️ Product Selection
Winning products require constant testing. Success depends on your ad strategies, product trends, and quick testing cycles. Aplusfulfill shares product recommendations weekly and helps you reduce cost and testing friction.💰 Competitive Pricing Strategy
With NL/BE markets being price-sensitive, keeping your cost low is crucial. Aplusfulfill gives you access to factory-direct pricing and custom bundle options to help you stay competitive — and profitable.🔧 Product Quality Control
Buyers in the Netherlands and Belgium expect high-quality goods. We inspect and test all items before shipping and share product feedback directly with you to adjust your strategy before issues arise.🚚 Logistics That Meet Customer Expectations
