2022 Winter What to Sell

If you are running a business which sells seasonal products like winter clothing shops either for e-commerce or local store, you should get prepared for the coming winter in advance to know what to sell and get them in stock.

Unlike the past winters, most European countries would have to face severe electricity shortage this coming winter due to the tension with Russia who has kept shutting down the natural gas that was used to generate electricity for Europe starting from late fall. However, ever since the sanctions against Russia was proposed in the early 2022 due to the Russia-Ukraine War, Russia was taking the energy as revenge to cut down power transporting to Europe. With the supply in short ends with record high power bill. And there is no sign of ceasing from both sides. The power shortage with cold weather would definite increase consumers’ demand for some winter essentials. And we need to know what to sell them.

When to buy and ship?

If the cold winter and lack of power is inevitable, then what can we do to be prepared for our businesses to sell big this winter? The answer is obvious, getting the products what are essentials for winter from the beginning of the autumn or August to prevent traffic jam and goods detained on the way of freight. Without any doubt, the holidays like Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year Eve and Chinese New Year all require a high amount of products shipping every year. And the stocks are generally ship out starting from the late August to October to ensure everything is in stock and ready for sell. If you would like to get your essentials right for sale and not detained by the freight, the best solution is to get your first order in August or September and placing more orders evenly in the following months as Replenishment.

What to sell for clothing?

1. Winter Pajamas made with the thick and fluffy materials for warmth and comfortable wear at home.
2. Thermal Underwear Set that is first popular among Asians especially for Chinese, Koreans and Japanese. Now the thermal underwear set has become essentials for some cold countries or people like to ski as well.
3. Down jackets are the number one choice for outdoor in winter, but don’t forget you can sell all different types of down jackets like the light and heavy ones, or short and long ones.
4. Warm Paste/ Hot Pack is a very popular product among Asians which can generate heat within one minute after you open up the package. Hot pack or warm paste comes with stickers on the back that you can use to stick it on your backs, arms or legs for long-time heating. *However, never stick it directly on your skin to prevent burn.
5. Thick Socks are something a lot of people forget to pay attention yet very popular to sell during the winter for both local shops and e-commerce for drop-shipping.
6. Winter hats are popular as well as the balaclava that are must have for ski lovers.
