i'm just in the planning stages and i'm having a difficult time finding information. i've looked at the websites for some of the companies that i'm interested in but have found nothing on how to buy their product as a distributor. is there a set protocol for doing this? any advice would be much appreciated.

Where are you looking to purchase from?

Japan? China? Taiwan? Others...?

Thanks...!

most likely in the u.s. from places johnson & johnson and pampers etc...

Ahh okay...

Not sure on that one...do they not have a corp. mailing address/contact info on their website?

Thanks.

Yes. You need to have all your ducks in a row first.

Incorporated company or LLC.
Bank reference.
Tax ID number.

Then practice approaching a few companies you have no intention of doing business with for info on opeing an account and obtaining pricing lists. That way you get to make mistakes with people you will never have to deal with again.


Once you are confident of your professionalism, contact the companies you do want to do business with.
