Trade is one of the main tools for constant progress. This statement was first voiced at the end of the nineteenth century, but nothing has changed over the past century. The trade sphere is one of the most profitable occupations today, both in Russia and in foreign countries. Each seller acts as an intermediary between the manufacturers of goods and the potential audience. Such intermediation allows you to make a mark-up for your own services, which increases the real cost of products several times. Below we will try to find out what is profitable to sell in Russia now.

Food is the brightest representative of consumer goods

How to become successful in this area

Small business development in Russia is hampered by the abundance of hypermarket chains. Small shops cannot provide adequate competition for entire retail chains. Quite interesting is the fact that, despite such conditions, it is much more profitable to sell your goods on the market. It is the market that provides sellers with various opportunities to increase their potential audience. Here, each seller has the opportunity to independently control the cost of the goods.

Food products are goods that are in great demand among the population. According to statistics, the list of the most demanded products includes fruits, vegetables, dairy and meat products. All of these products bring a stable income, with the right approach to their implementation. The main advantage of the market is that most of the local residents go here hoping to buy essential goods at a large discount. This privilege allows you to manage the demand for a product with the help of correctly set prices.

Household chemicals - ranks second in the category of goods in high demand. Various cleaning products, personal hygiene items, as well as cosmetic products are required by people regardless of the circumstances. The main advantage of household chemicals is an almost endless shelf life.

Seasonal trading can also be a source of permanent income. Clothes, accessories and shoes - with the right marketing approach, will be a source of solid profit. Writing materials and school supplies also bring high seasonal profits. You can increase your sales statistics by selling rare goods.
The main role in the question of profit is played by the location of the outlet and the cost of the goods offered.

Most profitable products

The crisis is negatively affecting trade. Despite this, there are certain niches that were not affected by the crisis. Developing your own business in the field of trade, it is necessary to focus on precisely such a market segment. But here you should remember about the high competition, so you need to approach the issue of opening a retail outlet with great attention.

As statistics show, household appliances and food products are in special demand during the crisis. At the same time, the demand for household appliances is constantly growing. This can be explained by the fact that financial instability in the country forces people to invest their available funds in things that will be exploited for many years.

Citing the same statistics as an example, we can say that due to the increase in the value of the dollar, the demand for such goods as sunflower oil, cereals and flour has increased. In addition, there is a high demand for household chemicals, clothes for children and artificial mixtures.

However, many market analysts do not recommend starting a business based on the sale of shoes or clothing. According to them, the majority of potential buyers prefer to save on products from this category. Today, the most demanded product in Russia is alcoholic and tobacco products.

What is more profitable to resell

Essential goods are in high demand in every corner of our planet. This product category includes household chemicals, medicines, food products, personal care products, beauty products, clothing and beauty products. It is this assortment that brings the main revenue. All of the above can not only be sold, but also resold, pre-purchasing small batches from manufacturers.

The business related to the sale of cosmetic products makes a profit not only from retail sales, but also from wholesale shipments from Europe. The received product can be sold both independently and given for sale in small stores. This approach will allow you to make a profit, without large financial costs and physical efforts. The main emphasis in this area is on those goods that have a long shelf life.

The sale of such cosmetic products reduces the risk of losing financial investments due to long delivery times or other nuances.

Many aspiring entrepreneurs rarely turn their attention to online sales, which is a fairly common mistake. It is online stores that are one of the key tools that allow you to find a potential client in a short time.

Let's take a look at how to get the most out of the resale of various products. First of all, when drawing up a business plan, you should assess the needs of the market. Clothes, household goods and various accessories are in high demand in this area. Analysis of this market shows that trade in women's clothing and costume jewelry brings the highest profit. The average mark-up for similar products purchased in China or Europe is at least one hundred percent. According to the same analysis, ninety percent of the goods on store shelves are three times cheaper in the manufacturer's country.

Based on all of the above, the question of what can be resold profitably can be considered closed. Let's look at what goods produced in Russia are profitable to export to foreign countries.

How to make money on export

Non-ferrous metals and various industrial products are in great demand in European and Asian countries. Many entrepreneurs benefit greatly from the resale of glass and plastic products or consumables for various equipment and machinery abroad.

According to statistics, the demand for household appliances, construction equipment and spare parts for various machine tools is increasing every year. It is this category of goods that is most profitable to sell in foreign countries.

When opening an enterprise engaged in the export of various goods, certain realities of the Russian market must be taken into account. Food, clothing and cosmetic products will not bring high profits, due to the lack of brands known throughout the world on the domestic market. If you have plans to make a profit from the export of goods, your focus should be on cereals and cereals. Such an enterprise can become a source of high income, but it is worth remembering the possible risks. Crop failure, delays in dispatch and other unforeseen situations must be taken into account.

What products are in demand

In order to determine the most purchased product in Russia, you need to carefully analyze supply and demand in the Russian market. Demand is the key to the relevance of your offer. Today, Chinese and European goods, which are practically not produced in Russia, are in great demand. Such products include various electronic gadgets, laptops and smartphones.

When planning your own business aimed at making constant profit, you should pay special attention to smartphones. Moreover, not only mobile phones themselves, but also various accessories can become a source of benefit. The constant development of the electronics industry increases the audience of this market. Many aspiring entrepreneurs, at the dawn of their careers, prefer to resell used phones.

Modern fashion trends force consumers to replace their toys every few months. The purchase of such relatively outdated models for the purpose of further resale can become a source of stable income.

It should be remembered that at the initial stages of developing your own business in the field of trade, it is best to focus on those products that have a long shelf life. This approach will avoid possible losses due to the lack of demand for your offer. Speaking of perishable goods, there is a special demand for flowers and houseplants. Various accessories for growing and storing them are also in special demand.

Online trading platforms

Trading Internet sites (Avito, Aliexpress) are one of the niches of the trading business, where there is no competitive pressure. Here, each seller has the opportunity to sell his product at a price set by him. Unusual, creative and rare things are especially popular in this case. Unlike Avito, Aliexpress acts as a platform where most of the goods can be purchased directly from the manufacturer.

Today, you can sell on Aliexpress in Russia as well. In order to start making money on this site, you need to have your own online store or a group on social networks with a large base of potential customers.

There are two main ways to make money with Aliexpress:

1. Self-purchase of popular products and their further placement in their own online store (group in social networks). This method allows you to sell purchased products within a short time due to the fact that the product you published is already available to you.
2. Act as an intermediary between the site and the potential client. This way of making money is complicated by the need to find those customers who are ready not only to make an advance payment, but also to wait for their goods for a long time. At the same time, there are certain risks associated with damage or loss of goods during transportation.

Success in this area of ​​business can only be achieved through cooperation with trusted sellers. When purchasing shoes and clothing, remember that the quality of such goods is significantly inferior to American ones. It is the low quality that can explain the low price of such products.

Kitchen utensils, interior items, bijouterie, cosmetics and small household appliances are the most popular goods that can be purchased for further sale. The average mark-up for such products is several times higher than the price set by the manufacturer. The main advantage of this online store is free shipping and no need to pay customs duties. Summing up, we can say that the Aliexpress website is an ideal tool for promoting your own business in the field of sales, which does not require large material investments.

If we consider the Russian Internet market, then we should highlight such a site as Avito. Here you can independently track popular destinations and sell your goods without leaving your home. Placing free classified ads makes it much easier to find potential customers.

In this case, the seller does not need to acquire the necessary license (except for certain goods) and register with the tax authorities. In order to legalize your business, you just need to open your own page right on the site. In order to do this, you need to consult with the administration of the resource.

Conclusion

In order to determine the best-selling product in Russia, you should constantly monitor the market situation. Products from the household chemicals section, children's clothing, various electronic gadgets and even food products can bring high profits to novice entrepreneurs. The growth of inflation and the crisis phenomena increase the demand for essential goods, therefore, this direction is in high demand among the population.
