Why fabric Dropship

Technology to run the program. Commerce operators to get it live.

fabric's team works alongside your suppliers and internal teams to move from setup and testing to launch and ongoing operations.

01 · Find demand before you fund inventory

Launch new categories without a large upfront buy.

Use real customer demand to identify what deserves investment, expand the winners, and avoid getting stuck with inventory that does not sell.

Outdoor cooking is earning a buy. 6 dropship suppliers ready to expand.
02 · Bring suppliers live without a new way of working

Connect suppliers on the systems they already run.

Self-service by default. Support when it matters — suppliers set up, test, and launch on their own, and fabric's operators step in only where it counts.

How it works

From first invite to reconciled invoice.

1

Invite & onboard

Invite a supplier; they follow a guided checklist and connect their systems.

2

Propose & approve

Suppliers submit proposals; you review, negotiate cost, and approve pricing.

3

Publish & sell

Approved products flow to your channels with live inventory from EDI, API, or platform sync.

4

Route & fulfill

Orders route to suppliers automatically; they ship with generated labels and tracking flows back.

5

Invoice & reconcile

Invoices generate against shipments; commissions, credits, and remittance reconcile monthly.

Supplier accountability

Ship windows, cancel rates, and defect rates are scored per supplier — and enforceable.

Data privacy

Your data is used only as you instruct, never shared across customers or third parties.

Operators, not just software

Commerce operators stay with the program from onboarding through steady-state operations.

Customer storySNIPES

How SNIPES turned an acquisition into revenue in one month.

After acquiring Jimmy Jazz, SNIPES needed the acquired assortment in front of customers while a systems and distribution-center consolidation was still underway. Dropship let suppliers and products go live in as little as 30 minutes — no waiting on the migration.

Our experience with the fabric team has been pretty remarkable.
