9 reasons vape retailers should buy factory direct 

When it comes to purchasing products, many retailers opt to buy from a cross-border trader or local distributor rather than going straight to the manufacturer. However, there are several reasons why it can be beneficial to order factory direct.
Here are our top 9 reasons why vape shops and retailers should buy vape products factory direct.

Better pricing

By eliminating the middleman, you can often get a better price on the product you're purchasing. Manufacturers typically offer lower prices to retailers who order directly from them. For retailers, there are often good cost savings as retailers don't have to pay the cross-border trader, master distributor, and regional distributor markups. Fewer fingers in the pie mean more profit for vape retailers. Check out Wotofo’s nexPod retail partner program to discover the amazing benefits and savings of buying manufacturer direct.

More options

Many manufacturers offer a wider range of products to retailers who order directly from them. This can give you more options, allowing you to find the perfect product for your customer's needs.

Faster delivery

When you order from a distributor or cross-border trader often the product has to be shipped to them first before it's shipped to you. This can add extra time to the delivery process. By ordering factory direct, you can often get your product faster, as it goes straight from the manufacturer to you.

Better warranty protection

When you order factory direct, you often have a better warranty than if you purchase from a retailer. This can provide peace of mind, knowing that you have a strong level of protection for your product.

Better communication

When you order factory direct, you have the opportunity to communicate directly with the manufacturer. This can be helpful if you have questions or concerns about the product, need help with product replacements or a host of other potential challenges as you'll be able to get answers directly from the source.

Improved customer service

Manufacturers are often more responsive to customer inquiries and complaints than distributors, as they have a direct stake in the success of their products. By ordering factory direct, you may have a better experience with customer service and have any challenges resolved in an efficient and timely manner.

Greater transparency

When you order factory direct, you have a better understanding of where your product is coming from and how it was made. This can be especially important if you're concerned about ethical and environmental issues.

Increased quality control

When you order factory direct, you can be more certain that you're getting a real, high-quality product. It’s a well-known fact that within weeks of a popular product hitting the market, there are cheap imitation manufacturers flooding the market with inferior product copies, many of which could pose health and safety threats to your customers. Sell with confidence and protect your customers from harm by buying manufacturer direct.

Customization options

For larger retailers like retail chains who may want their own branded version of the product dealing factory direct can open the door to lucrative partnership opportunities. When you order factory direct, you sometimes have the option to customize the product branding to meet your needs. Often referred to as an OEM product option*link to OEM article, this can be especially useful if you have specific requirements or preferences that a retailer may be unable to accommodate.

Overall, there are many benefits to ordering factory direct. Whether you're looking for a better price, customization options, or improved customer service, going directly to the manufacturer can often be the best choice.
