Kitchen gadgets like avocado slicers, garlic presses, silicone spatula sets, and herb scissors cost $1-3 wholesale on AliExpress and sell for $10-18 on Amazon and eBay. Search Amazon for best-selling kitchen gadgets, then source the same items wholesale. Order 50-100 units of one winning product. Kitchen gadgets are small, lightweight, and non-electronic, so they are easy to ship and have low return rates.
🚀 First Step
Browse Amazon's 'Kitchen Gadgets Best Sellers' page, pick one item under $15, find it wholesale on AliExpress, and order 20 units to test the market.
  • Check Amazon Best Sellers in Kitchen & Dining to find proven winners before sourcing
  • Stick to non-electronic gadgets — they are simpler to import, have no safety testing requirements, and fewer returns
  • Bundle 3 related gadgets into a 'kitchen starter set' for higher average order value
