Manufacturers & brand owners
Direct programs with the companies that make the product, including brands opening a controlled online channel.
Vendor Partnerships
What we buy, what we need from a supplier, and how a wholesale account with us gets started.
Who we buy from
Three kinds of supplier relationship
We are opening wholesale accounts in the categories we sell in. If your business fits one of these, we would like to talk.
Distributors & importers
Authorized distributors and importers with consistent supply and documentation for the brands they carry.
Wholesale suppliers
Established wholesalers, including overstock and closeout sellers who can evidence the origin of their stock.
What we ask for
Catalogs, price lists and order requirements
The fastest way to start is to send the commercial basics. We review every submission ourselves and reply either way.
- Line card or catalogThe brands and categories you supply.
- Wholesale price listUnit cost, plus any tier or volume breaks.
- Case pack and MOQInner packs, master cartons and pallet configurations.
- Product dataUPC or EAN, dimensions, weights and images we may use.
- Lead times and stock positionCurrent availability and your restock cadence.
- Channel and pricing policyIncluding MAP requirements where they apply.
What we provide
For a qualified vendor application, we can supply the standard business documentation a wholesale account requires, including entity details for Terry Pet Lovers LLC and the tax documentation applicable to the account.
- Completed vendor account application
- Entity and business verification details
- Tax documentation required for the account
- A single, named purchasing contact
- A designated ship-to confirmed at account setup
Documentation is shared directly with the supplier during the application process — never published on this website.
Orders, shipping and payment
How we prefer to run an account
Nothing here is fixed. These are the arrangements we work well with, and we will adapt to your standard terms.
Minimum orders & case packs
We buy in your standard case-pack structure and work within your stated minimum order quantity. Where an MOQ is high for a first purchase, we will ask whether a trial order or an assorted pallet is possible, then scale the account as sell-through supports it.
Shipping & receiving
Deliveries are arranged to a designated receiving location confirmed during account setup, by parcel or LTL freight. We will follow your routing and packaging requirements, and we do not ask suppliers to hold stock on consignment.
Payment
We are set up to prepay initial orders by company card or bank transfer. Standard net terms can be discussed once the account has an order history, or on whatever schedule your credit process requires.
Growing the account
Where a line performs, we come back for it, share what we are seeing in sell-through, and look at seasonal planning, new releases and wider assortment with you.
Product restrictions
What we decline
Being clear about this early saves everyone time. We pass on:
- Gray-market or parallel-import stock
- Expired, short-dated or improperly stored goods
- Repackaged, relabelled or bundled items presented as original
- Products with removed, obscured or altered UPC or serial identifiers
- Recalled products, or items subject to an open safety notice
- Goods requiring handling, licensing or certifications outside our current scope
Brand policy
Where a brand restricts who may resell its products or on which channels, we respect that. If you represent a brand and need a line removed from our channels, contact us at purchasing@terryretailventures.com and we will act on it promptly.
Vendor relationships and product authorizations are established directly through written agreements where applicable.
