2- Wayfair’s Business Model

Wayfair buys products from you at wholesale price and sells them at retail price on its website. Retail prices do not affect the manufacturer. Since there is a great variety of products and quality, the price range that Wayfair will give you in wholesale may vary a lot. Wayfair has its own special logistics system. It works without stock in this system. As the order arrives, the manufacturer delivers the products to the purchasing customer and Wayfair covers the shipping costs. If your products are fast selling products, Wayfair can take products in bulk to their warehouses. In this case, Wayfair also covers the shipping costs itself.
