How to open a wholesale account with Southern Ice
- 1. Check the fit. Confirm the product types and price range match the store you are building, and that the minimum order is within your working capital.
- 2. Look legitimate first. Most distributors want a real website, a business email on your own domain, and a resale certificate before they open an account.
- 3. Ask which brands are actually available to you. A distributor carrying many brands does not always have all of them open to new resellers in your territory.
- 4. Ask about MAP. Knowing whether pricing is enforced tells you whether your margin is protected from being undercut by other resellers on the same catalogue.
