What Can I Sell on Cargo?

Cargo is the home for unique fashion- this is the place for independent designers, upcyclers, vintage resellers. When it comes to answering what can I sell on Cargo, the sky is literally the limit – as long as it’s fashion related and not a prohibited item, list it and sell it!

❗️ An important note: Unique fashion also means non-drop shipped, not from a huge factory mass producing the same item, not from a factory that abuses and underpays its staff. All sellers on Cargo are vetted to make sure they are not simply drop shipping or reselling cheap, fast fashion. If that’s what you do, sorry, you’re not invited to this party 😜

Most Products on Cargo Fall Into These Categories:

Best Things To Sell on Cargo

There’s no big secret to what to sell on Cargo – most items of clothing do equally great on the platform. The main element we encourage you to take into account is content: what can you tell a story about? What is interesting?

Seasonality is also always smart to consider! Warm sweaters won’t perform well in the summer, while dresses will. Also keep in mind events and holidays – New Years Eve, Halloween, or even things like music festivals.

What To Consider on Cargo

Without question, the most important consideration when selling on Cargo, and what sets us apart from other platforms, is content.

Your most important consideration should be the video that is going to accompany the item. Make it stand out!

  • Tell a story about the item – where did you source it, who used to wear it? How did you get the idea to make it? Where was it worn historically?
  • Show us how you made it
  • Show us how you like to style it and where you like to wear it
  • Make it funny, interesting or outlandish
  • Show a GRWM and tell a story about how you got your start in the world of fashion
  • Think way outside of the box! Remember, when people use Cargo they’re scrolling through posts, ask yourself – what would it take to stop someone from scrolling past?
