Unsaturated niches are the holy grail of the dropshipping world! It’s like finding a gold nugget!

Let me break the bad news to you first, all niches have a certain level of competition. If you think you’re going to find a niche that nobody has found yet, prepare to be disappointed.

The goal is to find a niche where the disparity between demand for the niche and competition from other sellers is large enough that you can swoop in there and still be profitable.

In this article, I have listed 100 niches I believe have the most potential to be profitable in 2023 and beyond. From my own research I have listed these niches based on one or more of the following criteria:

  • Relatively low competition compared to the amount of interest from consumers.
  • The upward trend of popularity makes it an ideal time to jump onboard before other sellers realize and follow suit.
  • An evergreen niche with a growing market that will continue to remain in demand for years to come.
  • The niche products are not sold in standard retail stores or variants which are hard to source.

There are several ways of verifying this information, I cover it here; “How to Tell if a Product is Too Saturated.

You can search Google to see how many and how good the websites are based around your niche as well as check how many people are running ads based on your niche. You can then compare these results with tools such as keysearch.co and Google Trends to get an idea of demand vs competition. These research strategies will help validate your choice of niche.

Prior investigation into your shortlisted niche ideas will increase your odds of finding a profitable niche, although there is no exact science due to the multitude of variables that can impact your success. This is why you also have to take a leap of faith and trust your gut that the niche you choose is the right one for you.

I have used the criteria above to list the niches below. At the end of the day, these ideas are simply predictions based on my research and experience. I have been dropshipping since 2016 and have multiple successful dropshipping stores so I believe my educated predictions have merit and are worth deeper exploration.

There may be more than 50 reasons why a niche doesn’t succeed and often it’s not because of the niche. Click here to check out my opinion on the best dropshipping niche.

My Favorite Unsaturated Niches!

These are the niches I believe have real potential to be profitable in 2022 and into the future.

Vehicle RoofTop Tents

Rooftop tents have continued to climb in popularity over the past 10 years and it looks to continue as the world opens back up and people are getting outdoors.

You can target multiple audiences within the outdoor niche such as; camping, hunting, fishing, survival, etc. It’s a top product that can be targeted at a very passionate audience of buyers.

Rooftop tents are a high ticket item and the average price is anywhere between $1,000 to $3,000 providing a healthy profit margin.

Obviously, homeschooling had a huge spike in popularity as many households have been in lockdown. Demand has dipped but interest remains high.

As specific parts of the world bring in mandates, you may find homeschooling spikes in interest again and many parents will decide to school their children from home indefinitely.

There are endless teaching resources you can dropship on your Shopify store as well as become an affiliate for many online teaching programs.

Portable solar panels have slowly been climbing in demand and I think that is set to continue.

With off-the-grid living and doomsday prepping becoming more common you can expect many new customers to enter the market every day.

Which Niches are Best for Dropshipping?

I believe the niches listed above can all be successful for dropshipping but it really all depends on several factors. These products can be drop shipped, although it may depend on the country you plan to dropship to and the type of dropshipping you plan to utilize.

For example, some of the products listed are larger and heavier than you might expect for your typical dropshipping product. This isn’t always a bad thing and is often the reason such products aren’t saturated.

Large products can be drop shipped profitability, however, that may depend on the country you’re dropshipping too. If you live in a country such as the US or the UK, dropshipping large products is well worth it. Some countries don’t have the same logistical options, due to infrastructure and have many rural and secluded areas. These issues may make shipping large products impractical.

For more information on dropshipping larger items, visit my related article on whether it’s worth dropshipping oversized products?

Another element to consider is the level of competition for the niche in each country. Often you’ll find a niche that may be saturated in one country but not in another. Most dropshippers check out the competition level in the US and that’s it!

The US is the most profitable country for dropshipping without a doubt, but it’s also the most saturated. You can check the interest of specific niches in specific countries with keysearch.co and Google Trends. You can then compare the results with the price of ads in those countries.

Because Facebook ads essentially work like a bidding system, the more popular a product is, the higher the cost to advertise. A product with lower advertising costs in specific countries is also less likely to be saturated.

It may be worth comparing the interest of a niche with the price of ads in multiple countries. This can help find gaps in the market that most people don’t know about. Just because a niche is saturated in the US, doesn’t mean it will be saturated in Germany or Australia for example.

Some niches people just simply don’t consider selling online because of the additional hoops you will have to jump through. Dropshipping alcohol or selling firearms online can be a great option if you’re countries permits it. Because of the additional work involved in setting up, many people dismiss these options which provide opportunities for people who want to put the work into it.

Summary

As a beginner, the amount of competition you will be up against can be a daunting task and can make most newbies second guess every niche they think of. You’ll never get started if this is your mindset as every niche is competitive to some degree.

Competition is actually a positive as it means there is money to be made. Market saturation is what you want to avoid. This essentially means that a product has reached its sale limits in a specific market of buyers.

As long as your niche has new buyers entering the market, you can always break into a competitive niche. There are countless ways you can make yourself stand out from your competitors.

The list of unsaturated niches in this article should give you some ideas to pursue. If you’re concerned about the level of competition, the best piece of advice I can give you is to create a brand around your niche.

To give you some ideas, I have an article with 400+ profitable niches to dropship as well as a list of popular dropshipping products from previous years.
