Which product categories are the easiest to source?

    Hi,

    Out of pure boredom a couple of months ago, I wrote a program that continuously scans Amazon best sellers and tries to find similar items on wholesalers. I was looking to answer the following question: How easy is it to find profitable products to flip on Amazon?

    The program now found a little more than 12 000 products. You can check the full list here (https://www.bestpricewinner.com/)

    I then wondered about the categories of the items I found this way. Was there a trend ? Some categories that are over or under represented maybe ?
    Well from my research, the five easiest categories to source are:
    * Clothing, Shoes & Jewelry
    * Sports & Outdoors
    * Industrial & Scientific
    * Home & Kitchen
    * Beauty & Personal Care

    This is based on real data collection not speculation of a single blogger... Now I promised a short article so I will stop here, but you can have the full study on the following page: https://www.bestpricewinner.com/blog/best-products-sell-amazon-fba/

    Curious to have your feedback,

    Cheers,
    Alex
