Frequently asked questions

How long does Niche Research take?

Most research projects take one to three weeks. Sourcing work depends on sampling and factory lead times, and we give you a dated plan before we start.

Which countries do you source from?

Mainly China, Vietnam, Türkiye, Europe and the US, using marketplaces such as Alibaba and 1688 as well as direct factory contacts.

Can Niche Research be tailored to Macy’s Marketplace?

Yes. We use Macy’s Marketplace fees, categories and buyer behaviour in the research, so the numbers reflect where you will actually sell.

Do you guarantee a winning product?

No agency can guarantee sales. We reduce the risk with evidence, margins and validated suppliers, and we tell you when a product is not worth pursuing.
