What to sell on Amazon FBA in Q3

What types of products are consumers spending money on as we enter the heart of summer?

While most categories on Amazon sell well this time of year, there are some products that become e-commerce contenders in July, August, and September.

Let's review some of the products we see as potential winners in the third quarter of 2022.

1. Men's and women's swimwear

We mentioned these types of products in the second quarter, but selling men's and women's swimwear is still a great way to make money. Consumers who didn't buy new swimsuits before the start of summer may still be buying at the peak.

There are many arbitrage and wholesale opportunities to resell other swimwear brands without creating your own brand.

Thousands of couples have postponed their weddings over the past two years, so you should expect to see many finally tie the knot in 2022.
