🗣 In this episode of the Dropship Unlocked Podcast,
Lewis Smith and James Eardley sit down with long-time community member Suraj to unpack one of the most impressive journeys we’ve ever shared on the show.

Suraj didn’t just build a high-ticket dropshipping business — he followed the process, learned the fundamentals, scaled to over £200k in revenue, and then took a leap most people never see coming: buying one of his own suppliers, a business turning over £3M+ per year.

This episode is a real-world example of what can happen when you stop chasing shortcuts, build real relationships, and let your skills compound over time.

Key Takeaways

★ Progress Beats Perfection – Suraj didn’t wait for the “perfect” website, logo, or setup. He launched, learned, and improved fast.
★ Your Second Store Is Faster – Experience compounds. Once you know what actually matters, execution speed skyrockets.
★ Suppliers Are Partners – Strong supplier relationships can unlock better margins, opportunities… and even acquisitions.
★ Big Moves Come After the Basics – Suraj didn’t start by buying a business. He earned the opportunity by mastering fundamentals first.
