Re: Need a non B2B Supplier

Post by Cas »

Help!! As I am fairly new to the sublimation world I would consider myself to be at the hobby stage. I am getting loads of enquiries from friends, family, neighbours, schools etc and am coping well at the moment. I am hoping to develop this ‘hobby’ into a small business in the near future but want to learn to walk before running.
I have had a request for some polo shirts and have identified KK444 as the perfect product; thanks to advice on a previous post. My main suppliers for clothing at the moment are Xpres & MDP, both of which are unable to supply this product.
Can someone please point me in the direction of a supplier that would be able to supply without the requirement of a business account. Obviously I’m looking for as close to trade prices as possible. Thanks in advance for any advice offered.

Prestige Leisure stock them and I am sure most of the other trade suppliers. Ralawise, BTC, Pencarrie

Unfortunately this is my issue. Ralawise, BTC, Pencarrie all state Business to Business only. The account setup documentation ask that I supply a company number; trading name etc. As I am not quite ready to register a business yet they aren’t likely to set up a business account without the aforementioned information.

I have an account with Ralawise, if you need anything ordering I would be happy to help.

KK garnets are Kustom Kit who are joined to Xpres so if Xpres don't have them most suppliers probably won't.

Thanks Justin, I might have to take you up on that offer if I’m unsuccessful on Monday. Ironically I have an account with Xpres and have bought quite a lot off them since buying my SG800 from them 6 months ago. They tell me that they are unable to supply KK products as they are not an official distributor for the sister company. They said that they occasionally sell off excess stock for KK but in limited quantities. They also suggested Ralawise.

Pencarrie are literally a half mile away from me so I collect.
you can open a non credit account I have an account and I’m not a ltd company.

Drop them an email or call them they are really friendly and helpful.
