Default Organic Product Suppliers?

Hi Everyone,

I'm new here, my name is Brett White and im in the process of setting up a new ecommerce store under the name Organic Island.

I actually own a design agency which has built many ecommerce stores in the past and have a proven marketing history so im very confident I can make a success of it, also I have a partner on board.

Now im wondering if any companies who are members on here may be interested in supplying me with products? Or if they do already so how their process works?

Any questions please just let me know :-)

Regards
Brett White

PS. Mike can vouch for me as I don't want people to think im a spammer or a general time waster :-)

Hi Brett

I have recently started my own organic clothing range if you are interested. Its mainly fun eco themed tees at the moment, but we have new stuff all the time. We have a range for babies and kids right through to adults...

Hi Brett,

I work for Pai Skincare - we make (in London) organic skin care products. Pai is certified by the Soil Association and we've got lots of rave reviews from beauty editors.

We do supply a few Internet sites...but unless you are turning over a good volume you may find that with minimum orders and slow sales (at least at the beginning) you are left with product for months - and if it is fresh and organic (no parabens or other nasty chemical preservatives), the quality will deteriorate over time.

Pai offers a drop ship arrangement with some Internet retailers - whereby we dispatch orders on your behalf.

Feel free to drop me a message once your site is up and running - and in the meantime you can check out our products at:
Pai - paraben-free organic skincare

Regards,

Ed

With regards to drop shipping. could anyone tell me how that works if you have someone who orders 3 different items from your website that are commiong from 3 different drop ship sites. How do you cover the P&P costs when this happens?
I'd be grateful for any advice please.
