Analysis of banned sales and hot-selling products on Linio platform
Linio products are available in a variety of categories, including electronics, home furnishings, fashion, health and beauty, and children’s and baby products. This article will focus on analyzing the banned and hot-selling product categories on the Linio platform.
1. Products banned on the platform
On the Linio platform, all products sold must meet legal, new and authentic standards, and must be products that are allowed to be imported by the destination country. The following are prohibited item categories:
- Medical products and equipment (including pharmaceuticals)
- Animals and plants (including resins)
- Chemicals
- Contact lenses
- Food and Beverages
- Inflammable and explosive items
- Tobacco products (such as cigarettes, matches, electronic cigarettes and their accessories)
- Tires
- Weapons (including simulated toy weapons, paintball guns and knives)
- Untreated wood products
- Counterfeit (pirated) products
- Service
Ensuring compliance with these prohibitions is a key element that sellers on the platform must pay attention to.
2. Popular products on the platform
On the Linio platform, consumer electronics products have the largest sales volume, while demand for categories such as clothing and household daily necessities is also very strong. Here are the main best-selling product categories:
-
Consumer electronics: This is the largest sales category on the Linio platform, especially smartphones from brands such as Apple, Samsung, Xiaomi, Sony, Huawei, Lenovo and OnePlus. Sales of mobile phone accessories, tablets, cameras and other electronic products also performed strongly.
-
Fashion Category: Fashion products are the second largest source of sales on the platform, mainly including international brand-name watches, glasses and clothing. It is worth noting that Chinese OEM products (such as clothes, shoes, hats, bags and sports goods) also occupy a large market share with their superior cost performance and rich SKUs.
In addition, the Linio platform has fewer sellers in health and beauty, home furnishing, and maternal and infant (mainly toys) products, and the number of SKUs is relatively limited. For sellers interested in entering these areas, early entry into the market promises significant future growth opportunities.
Linio store opening costs
Unlike traditional e-commerce platforms, Linio does not charge monthly rent or membership fees, but makes money through sales commissions. Sellers need to pay Linio a certain percentage of commission after the order is completed, ranging from 7% to 15%, depending on the category of the product.
By understanding Linio’s banned and hot-selling products, sellers can better adjust their sales strategies and maximize their business potential on the platform.
