You have decided to start your own business, and one of the first questions that you will face is the question of finding reliable suppliers. Despite the fact that there are a huge number of offers for the sale and supply of goods, it is a big problem to find a supplier who will provide you with the necessary assortment on conditions convenient for you and at reasonable prices.
Instructions
Step 1
In our country, word of mouth is one of the most common ways to find anyone, including business partners. Therefore, ask familiar businessmen, friends, relatives, maybe they know reliable suppliers in your region.
Step 2
Browse the media for advertisements. Many wholesale companies distribute their advertising products not only in newspapers and magazines, but also in offices. These printouts and brochures will also give you the information you need.
Step 3
Contact your local government. Nowadays, organizations have been created in each prefecture to support small businesses. There they will tell you which wholesale organizations exist in the district according to the profile of your business.
Step 4
Look for a supplier who is as interested in you as you are in him. Build only mutually beneficial relationships with business partners.
Step 5
Pay attention to the following points: does the quality correspond to the price of the offered products, is the full range always available, what discounts the supplier offers, what is the speed of delivery of the ordered products, what are the payment terms, what additional services the supplier provides.
Step 6
Whichever way you choose a supplier, be sure to check their reputation. Feel free to go to business people who are already working with your potential partner with questions.
Successful partnership!
