In the head of Ahmed, 34, the dream was born in a click. Freshly arrived from the Comoros, this catering employee embarked on online entrepreneurship in 2022. His ambition? Become rich and “free”, by becoming an e-commerce pundit, more specifically dropshipping, which consists of selling trinkets on the Internet at very low prices from China, via Aliexpress, without managing stocks (it’s is the factory that takes care of the shipments), and ensuring a nice margin in the process.
