Is dropshipping worth starting for a pet supplies store in Kuwait?

Worth starting, yes — worth staying in, only if something changes. Dropshipping is the cheapest way to find out whether anybody wants what you are selling, and close to the worst way to make a living once they do.

The honest answer

Treat the first six months as paid research. The moment a product sells repeatedly, the margin argument flips: holding stock on that one line usually doubles the contribution per order, and the capital needed is small because you already know it sells.

Dropshipping trades margin for not holding stock, and the trade only works while traffic is cheap. For a pet supplies store in Kuwait, the answer turns on one thing in particular: Pet food is the most reliably repeated purchase in retail: the bag runs out on a known schedule.

What is different about Kuwait

A small, dense, high-income market where delivery is quick and word of mouth moves faster than advertising.

Local payment habits favour cards and instant transfer.

What is different about a pet supplies store

The part nobody plans for is returns: if the supplier will not take one back, the store is the returns department.

Where a mobile app comes into it

This is the clearest case for an app of any category. TicApp built barcode reordering into Pets Lounge for exactly this.
