What Are Wholesale Lots?
Using DVDs as an example, let's take a look at what wholesale lots are. Quite simply, wholesale lots are large quantities of any sellable item (in this case, DVDs) that retailers buy from wholesale product distributors.
The supply chain goes like this: the manufacturer makes the product (the DVDs). In most cases the manufacturer does not sell to the general public because there are specialists (retailers) who exist to do this. The manufacturer can directly sell the product to the retailer, but usually, as a service to the manufacturer a wholesaler or wholesale distributor makes the product available to retailers. The retailer in turn purchases the product (the DVD wholesale lots) at a wholesale price which is typically lower than what it would be to the general public. It’s lower because large quantities (a lot) are purchased. Wholesalers always discount the cost per item when a retailer buys them in these large lots.
Simple enough.
So now it would be good to have some targeted information, namely some wholesaler names that can supply a retailer with these DVD wholesale lots they desire to sell to the public.
There are many, but how do you find them? In this age of the World Wide Web it has become a bit easier. The best way in this specific case is to use a search engine like Google. For the search criteria, type in " wholesale lots," where " " is the product you are interested in. In this case it would be DVD wholesale lots (or dvd wholesale lots because search criteria is not usually case sensitive).
