How to Buy Name Brand Sunglasses in Bulk

A quick Internet search will deliver hundreds of listings for wholesale distributors that sell sunglasses in bulk. But how do you know which companies are reputable? And how do you convince them to do business with you? Buying name brand sunglasses in bulk from a trustworthy source is not always an easy task. It takes both research and preparation in order to prove to the distributors that you represent a legitimate retail business.

Things You'll Need

• Business license
• Sales tax number
• Purchase orders
• Business cards
• Letterhead
• Business checkbook

Instructions

1. Obtain a business license and sales tax number in order to attract the attention of legitimate wholesale companies. These companies receive many requests for information, but unless you approach them with proof of your business, you won't get a response.

2. Search the Internet for wholesale companies that sell brand name sunglasses in bulk. It is important to do your research to ensure the company you're interested in purchasing from is legitimate and that its sunglasses are designer brands and not replicas. One reputable online resource that works to connect retailers and vendors is www.buylink.com.

3. Find trade shows and wholesale marts in your region where there will be name brand sunglasses distributors. Be prepared to prove yourself as a legitimate retailer before gaining entry, however. In addition to your business license and sales tax number, bring along purchase orders, business cards, letterhead and your business checkbook.
