FAQs

Before discussing a wholesale purchase or supplier range, it helps to understand what may affect the arrangement. Explore the questions below for guidance on inquiries, order quantities, sales conditions, and product concerns.

Details to Consider Before a Wholesale Arrangement

Use these answers to prepare a focused inquiry. Product-specific terms, documentation, and supply conditions should be confirmed during the discussion of your proposed purchase or distribution opportunity.

Is My Business Suitable for a Wholesale Discussion?

Businesses purchasing merchandise for resale or offering a range for distribution can submit an inquiry. Tell us how your business operates and what you want to buy or supply so the proposed relationship can be considered.

What Information Makes an Initial Inquiry Useful?

Include your business profile, the products or categories involved, expected quantities, and intended sales channels. For supplier proposals, add range details and the terms under which the products are available.

How Is the Required Purchase Quantity Determined?

The relevant product, case configuration, stock position, and supplier conditions may affect the quantity required. Ask about the current minimum and pack size before finalising your purchasing plans.

What Pricing Conditions Should I Check?

Request the commercial pricing details for the products you are considering and ask whether advertised pricing restrictions apply. Any brand conditions should be reviewed alongside the proposed purchase terms.

Can I Sell a Product Through My Chosen Channel?

Channel suitability depends on the merchandise and the applicable supplier or brand conditions. Describe where you intend to sell the products so any relevant restrictions can be discussed before proceeding.

What Should I Provide When Reporting an Order Concern?

Share the order reference, affected items, and a description of the issue, with photographs where relevant. The concern can then be considered under the applicable purchase conditions and supplier procedures.
