Selling on WooCommerce with SaleHoo

WooCommerce + SaleHoo is a powerful combination for building an online store with quality, in-demand products.


Whether you’re launching your first WooCommerce store or looking to scale an existing one, SaleHoo Directory helps you find pre-vetted, trusted suppliers—without hours of trial and error.


Why Use SaleHoo with WooCommerce?

Without great products from reliable suppliers, building a successful store is tough.


SaleHoo makes it simple by giving you access to:

  • 8,000+ trusted suppliers
  • Advanced search tools to find the right products fast
  • Verified supplier contact details for easy communication
  • Tools to identify trending products and market opportunities


How to Find WooCommerce-Friendly Suppliers


Let’s say you want to sell sunglasses.

  • Enter “sunglasses” in the SaleHoo Directory search bar.
  • Use filters to narrow your results:
    Ships to location
    Supplier location
    Supplier type (wholesaler, dropshipper, manufacturer)
    Minimum order cost
    Marketplace compatibility



You can toggle between “View Products” and “View Suppliers” to switch from item listings to full supplier profiles.


Contact Suppliers

Once you find a supplier that looks promising:

  • Review their Supplier Profile: warehouse location, years in business, integration options, and more.
  • Use SaleHoo’s tools to contact them easily:
    • Direct chat through SaleHoo
    • Email or phone (listed in their profile)


👉 Tip: Many suppliers do not list their best prices online—always contact them to negotiate pricing and terms.



Ask the Right Questions

When reaching out, confirm key details such as:

  • Delivery times and shipping costs
  • Product quality and sample availability
  • Minimum order quantities
  • Integration options for WooCommerce
➜ If no direct integration, you can still work with the supplier—just manually upload product details.

Market Insights makes product research simple.
With SaleHoo Market Insights, you can:

  • See trending products across major marketplaces
  • Filter by:
    • Product type
    • Sell rate %
    • Average price
    • Competition strength
  • Explore similar product listings
  • View potential suppliers for each product


👉 Use Insights to validate your product ideas before reaching out to suppliers.


Stay Organized

As you research products and suppliers:

  • Save products you’re interested in
  • Compare suppliers based on response time, pricing, and reliability
  • Track communications easily with SaleHoo’s built-in chat and Inbox tools


Moving Forward

Once you’ve selected a supplier:

  • Confirm your terms and place your first order
  • Upload product images and descriptions to your WooCommerce store
  • Set pricing and prepare for launch!


Tip: With WooCommerce, you’ll often work with wholesale suppliers—but SaleHoo also supports finding dropshipping and manufacturing partners if that fits your store strategy.
