yes i do but in my country
e-commerce known only for guys under 25 years old
& those guys don't have 50k cars to put genuine parts on it

What about any neighboring countries around you? Maybe there is a bigger market there to which you can sell to if the shipping price is right.

the shipping price in my country is a little high
it starts from around 15dollars for small items that weights less than 1kg
and they tell me that customs can hold my parts also

90% of the products shown in the moroccan FB marketplace are about getting ur ass / dick bigger.
Try Facebook Ads + a website + SM profiles.

SM profiles.

do you mean a website to sell those parts local?
because as you know most adult moroccans dont know even what is google for and what is the different between google and facebook
& i'm trying to sell those parts for people that own mercedes 2019 model so on...
do you think a post about genuine parts with facebook ads can work well ?

ur ass / dick bigger.

Lol

If you think you have a market for auto parts then go for shopify store. It will benefit you in the long run.

dont you think that selling genuine parts is illegal without permission?
i think that is exactly like selling brand shoes and stuff like that

It's called targeting. You run ur ads only to the right audience.
In your case you can scrape the FB ids of moroccan car owners ( try FB groups, i'm sure i already found some local groups about X brands of cars ) and run ur ads to those specific people.

hi, did you try there in local sites?

 

[Med sabri]

hi, did you try there in local sites?

yes i do
more the 200 calls and zero conversion
people only wants to ask they have nothing to do
i want to target people that own 50k£ cars becuase they are the only ones that can affoard to buy genuine parts
and it seems that those kind of people in my country dont visite facebook marketplace or buy/sell groups
i will try with facebook ads and see

Does it come with hasj?

Tbh I don't think it's worth the effort in your region, pretty much Marocco and neighbouring countries in Africa are tier 3 so a very small market for this niche.

You speak French? If you get good prices from Belgian then why not focus on the Belgian and French market? And if you don't partner up with somebody.

No hasj i’m not looking for troubles hhh
My normal way of work is when a costumer came to my auto parts store and asked me for a part thats not available in (mercedes/bmw...)garages
I order them from belguim and i freind of mine go to mercedes house take them and send them to me
I ask him now to see shipping rates for all around europe and if it cheap i will start do dropshipping model for genuine auto parts
