Default find a wholesaler

Has anyone had experiance with using "wholesale assistant" they claim that they will find and source any product for you (for £19.99 a mth) thay also claim that the suppliers that they find have been verified and authentic, I did email them and asked if they had a supplier for a few items and a rough idea of what I could get the products for, they did get back to me and said they did have the suppliers for the items I asked for but because I wasn't a member they couldn't give me any sample prices, so if anyone can shed some light on this subject than thankyou

Hi there,

That is great advice, when ever I have look for big wolesalers that they might not even have a site! Some of the printers I use for work don't even have a site.

There is a UK magazine called Tader or The Trader I would look in there.

Doug

I believe it depends entirely on the products you are trying to source.

If you don't have a product yet, do some ground research and perhaps try to frequent a trade show or two, it really helps to get an idea of the products you are attempting to source before you go chasing suppliers.

Most wholesalers I use do not have a website. They do advertise on websites often but really just operate out of farm buildings etc.

All you need to do is get in contact with them. Sometimes it really is blindingly obvious.
