  9. How EGEXO helps

Online loofah shop in the Netherlands, in short: Three products, 500 pieces each, cost $2,330.00 at EGEXO prices and about $2,982.95 landed in the Netherlands by express, or $1.99 a piece. The example uses a small range, so photos and descriptions are easy to finish.

Example numbers. EGEXO prices are the public tier prices (USD, EX-Works Damanhour) at the quantity shown, read from the EGEXO price list on 23 Oct 2026. Selling prices and ad costs are example numbers, checked Oct 2026. Duty, VAT, platform fees and your own costs are not included.

Who this is for

You run, or plan to run, an online shop in the Netherlands. The example uses a back scrubber belt (L1008, 70 x 12 cm), a back scrubber (L1017, 40 x 12 cm) and a round body scrubber (L1003, 14 x 14 cm). The cotton towel parts, edges and straps are 100% cotton.

Your start order

Product Size Pieces Price tier EGEXO price each Total
L1008 Loofah Back Belt Scrubber 70×12 cm 500 2 $2.02 $1,010.00
L1017 Back Loofah Scrubber 40 x 12 cm 500 2 $1.78 $890.00
L1003 Round Body Loofah 14 x 14 cm 500 2 $0.86 $430.00
Total 1,500 $2,330.00

What it costs to land in the Netherlands

Cost Amount Note
Loofah products $2,330.00 Public tier prices
Express shipping $652.95 3 cartons, each carton shipped as its own parcel, door to door. About $0.42 to $0.44 per piece. Part-full cartons cost more per piece
Landed total $2,982.95 About $1.99 per piece on average. Before duty, VAT and local costs

Sea freight is quoted per order. For repeat orders, ask for a sea quote and compare it with express.

Selling price and profit

Body sponge. Landed cost per unit: $1.14.

Your selling price Gross profit per unit Gross margin
$3.00 $1.86 62%
$4.00 $2.86 71%
$5.00 $3.86 77%

The example prices per sponge sit inside the range we saw for natural loofah in online listings in Oct 2026. Check the shelf prices in your own market before you decide.

Back scrubber. Landed cost per unit: $2.23.

Your selling price Gross profit per unit Gross margin
$4.47 (cost x 2) $2.23 50%
$5.59 (cost x 2.5) $3.35 60%
$6.70 (cost x 3) $4.47 67%

We did not find a reliable online price check for this item, so the table shows what happens at three markups. Use the price your own buyers pay.

Ad cost

Example: clicks in this category cost about $1.50 to $3.00 each, and the benchmark ad cost per sale is about $13.19 (example numbers, checked Oct 2026).

On the middle price above, one body sponge earns $2.86 before ads. That is less than the example ad cost per sale, so paid ads alone will not pay back here. Use ads to test one product, and build sales with a good page, reviews, bundles and repeat buyers.

Steps

  1. Open the shop page with three products only.
  2. Order samples and take your own photos on a plain background.
  3. Write each description from the product facts: size, plant fibre and 100% cotton parts.
  4. Place the first order. EGEXO ships directly to the Netherlands; the time is confirmed in your quote.
  5. Review sales every month and add products one by one.

Checklist

  • Photos taken
  • Descriptions written
  • Shipping terms chosen
