UK Market Entry
Importer · Distributor · Sales & Marketing Partner
If we're excited about your brand, we make it simple to get started. Our catalogue application includes a compliance and technical appraisal of your products — the groundwork that makes UK retail entry possible. Beyond that, there's no long-term commitment until we've both seen what's possible. If the fit is right, we'll know quickly. And so will you.
What we bring
Importer of record
We collect EXW and manage all UK customs, VAT, and regulatory compliance. You hand over at the factory gate — we handle everything from there.
Specialist distributor
Established relationships across a national network of natural product distributors and direct-to-retailer routes. 2,000+ independent and specialty buying doors within reach from day one.
Sales & marketing agency
For brands with ambition and budget: full channel deployment, joint business planning, curated trade marketing, Amazon Brand Registry and buyer event management.

What we need from you
A workable net price (EXW)
We collect from your factory or warehouse on EXW terms. A workable net price — with enough margin for the UK channel — is essential for the relationship to work for both sides.
Full UK exclusivity
Across all channels including Amazon and D2C. This protects your brand, controls pricing across all routes to market, and prevents channel conflict that can undermine retailer relationships.
Shelf life on collection
Minimum 10 months (ideally 12–18) remaining on all stock at point of collection. This is a firm requirement of our retail partners and wholesale network across all tiers.

Agreement & first stock
Once there's something real to agree on, we formalise the relationship. Terms are structured around what we've both proven — giving each side the confidence to invest for the long term.
