UK Wholesalers
- Layered markups: paying 3–4 commissions before the goods reach you.
- Lack of choice: your options are limited by the wholesaler, and unique products are hard to buy.

The problem
Why your margins are shrinking
Most UK businesses pay a "convenience tax" by buying from UK wholesalers or unverified online agents.
Online Agents
- Quality lottery: risking your reputation on unverified "Gold Suppliers".
- Logistics friction: managing the nightmare of duty, VAT and customs.
- The 70% reality gap: up to 70% of "manufacturers" on global B2B platforms are actually trading companies.
