The useful contrast
Raw count is a US story. Per million people is an AU / NZ / NL story. Median revenue estimate is a Japan and Philippines story. India has 56,821 stores and a $263 median - the US median is $8. The US mean is about $15,650. Sample at random and you hit the tail.

Eighteen countries with a Neonjelly market page. Country totals are unfiltered. Apparel is the ≥500-visit board where that vertical made the pulled chart - a dash means it did not, not that the country has zero apparel shops.

Search volume vs store count
Pakistan searches “shopify stores” about 1,500 times a month with 12,095 shops in the catalog. Canada searches about 1,700 with 66,013 shops. Same-order demand, very different lists. South Africa’s tactic query (“dropshipping south africa”) is 6,300/mo on an 8,827-store catalog - that is a course SERP, not 6,300 dropship shops.

What moved in 30 days
Category hub on EcomScout, 2026-08-06 → 2026-09-05. English rows only - multilingual gift-card dupes dropped. These are catalog diffs (bestseller entries, rank-ups). Last 100 recorded markdowns on 2026-09-03: median 22.2% off; 33% were 30% or deeper.

What these numbers cover
Country store lists live on /markets. Platform GMV is not in this catalog. Modeled revenue is traffic × vertical benchmarks - a band, not merchant-reported sales.
Japan’s median is $6,277 with a 1.0% dropship flag. That is a floor on the shops we can model, not a growth slogan.
