Process
How wholesale works
Everything a purchasing team needs to know before opening an account: approval, pricing structure, minimums, quotes and reordering.
Apply
Submit the trade application with your business details, expected volumes and the categories you are interested in. Applications are logged with a status you can be updated on.
Review
Our trade desk verifies the business. Statuses run submitted, under review, then approved, rejected or suspended.
Activate
Approved businesses are issued an account tier and can create their secure login using the business email on the application.
Order
Use the catalogue, quick-order sheet or request a quote for larger and custom requirements. Reorder previous orders in one click.
Quantity breaks
Every catalogue line carries four standard bands. The band applies per variant, per order line.
