FAQ
Questions trade buyers ask us first.
Can't see yours? Ask in the quote form.
Do you sell to the public?
No. We work with trade buyers only: wholesalers and retailers, including sole traders and startups.
What is the minimum order?
It depends on the product. Each supplier sets its own minimum, and we tell you what it is when we quote.
Can you source branded or licensed products?
Only where the supplier holds the licence and can prove it. We don't source counterfeit goods.
Who handles shipping and customs?
Our freight and customs partners. On a landed-price order, shipping and import duty are in your price, and any VAT is shown separately. On a sourcing-service order, you are the importer. We can arrange delivery or work with your own forwarder.
