No Dropshipping, But a Print-on-Demand Platform

Why Imajo.nl is Not a Dropshipping Company, But a Print-on-Demand Platform

There has been a lot of negative press about dropshipping lately, and it is important to make it clear that Imajo.nl is not a dropshipping company, but a print-on-demand platform that focuses on high-quality wall decorations. But what is the difference between dropshipping and print-on-demand, and why did we choose the latter method?

What is Dropshipping?

Dropshipping is a business model where the seller offers products without holding inventory themselves. When a customer places an order, the seller purchases the product from a third party, often overseas, who then ships it directly to the customer. While this model has low start-up costs, there are many disadvantages: longer delivery times, variable product quality, and limited control over the manufacturing process. Warranties and returns can also be problematic, since the seller has no direct involvement in manufacturing or shipping.

What is Print-on-Demand?

Print-on-demand is a business model that is very different from dropshipping. With print-on-demand, products are only produced when an order is placed, meaning that each order is made especially for the customer. At Imajo.nl we focus on beautiful wall decorations, such as canvas prints, that are produced with care and attention as soon as the customer places an order. This allows us to offer unique, personalized products of high quality.

Our Choice for Quality and Reliability

At Imajo.nl we have consciously chosen to work with Dutch companies for our print-on-demand wall decorations. By producing locally, we can guarantee the highest quality and keep delivery times short. We have direct control over the production process, which ensures reliability and customer satisfaction. Furthermore, working with Dutch suppliers makes it easier to offer clear guarantees and smooth return procedures, which is often a challenge with dropshipping.
