LEADTOP · STEEL FURNITURE B2B

Wholesale steel furniture supply

Wholesale buyers do not need a catalogue of everything; they need a supply base that repeats the same specification, packs for container economics and answers quickly when a dealer asks for something new. This page is about how LEADTOP supplies importers, distributors and dealer networks at wholesale volume.

What wholesale buyers actually order

In practice, a wholesale account starts narrow and widens. The first order is usually two or three categories that sell reliably in the buyer's market, and the range grows once packing, documentation and lead time have been tested on a real shipment.

Mixed container loads are common at wholesale: several models and colours in one shipment, packed so that each carton is identifiable at the destination warehouse.

Container planning is part of the price

Two suppliers can quote the same unit price and land at different costs, because the container decides how much of that price is freight. Wholesale planning therefore starts from packing data:

Loading is calculated from the approved carton size for the actual model. It is not taken from a generic figure, because a small carton change can move the per-unit freight cost more than a small price negotiation.

Repeatable specification across repeat orders

The hidden cost in wholesale supply is drift: the second order arrives with a different handle, a slightly different grey, or a carton that no longer fits the racking. The counter is a fixed specification record per model — dimensions, steel grade and thickness per part, hardware schedule, colour reference, packing and labelling — kept with the order history so a repeat order is built to the same document.

When a change is necessary, it is proposed and approved in writing before production, and the record is updated so the next order matches the new baseline rather than reverting to the old one.

Commercial terms for wholesale accounts

No general price list, discount grid or lead-time promise is published on this site, because both depend on the model, the volume and the schedule at the time of the order.

Working with a dealer network

Distributors often need more than product: consistent carton marks per dealer, drop-ship documentation, and a specification sheet they can hand to their own customers. Those can be produced for the confirmed model, and the level of support is agreed per account rather than assumed.

For buyers running several markets, keep the destination in the inquiry. Labelling, documentation and any market-specific requirement are easier to build in at quotation than to retrofit after production.

Wholesale supply questions

Do you supply wholesale quantities only?

The range is aimed at importers, distributors and dealers buying at container or multi-pallet level, but a first trial order for a new account can be discussed. The minimum is set per model and confirmed in the quotation.

Can I mix several models in one container?

Yes. Mixed loads are normal at wholesale. The loading plan is built from the carton data of each confirmed model, with heavy items placed so they do not load onto lighter cartons.

How is wholesale pricing structured?

Price is quoted against the confirmed specification, packing and quantity. Tooling, sample and packaging development costs are shown separately where they apply, so the unit price is comparable between suppliers.

Do you publish a price list?

No. A published list would be misleading because price depends on steel thickness, finish, hardware, packing and volume. An indicative range can be discussed once the model and quantity are known.

What documents come with a wholesale shipment?

The document set is agreed per order and depends on the destination market. Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and any certificate required for the specific product are confirmed before shipment.

Can you support our dealer network with packaging marks?

Dealer-specific carton marks, barcodes and labelling can be produced for the confirmed model. The format is agreed per account and approved on a printed proof.

How do repeat orders keep the same specification?

Each model has a specification record covering dimensions, material, hardware, colour and packing. A repeat order is built to that record, and any change is approved in writing and then written back into the record.
