UK Wholesale Sourcing Guide

Primary Distribution Hubs

Wholesale distribution in the UK centres around major transit nodes. The Midlands Golden Triangle provides next-day logistics access to over 90 percent of the UK population. Greater Manchester and Leeds serve as Northern distribution hubs, while London and the M25 ring supply retail storefronts across the South East.

Trade Accounts & Documentation

Opening a British trade account typically requires a Companies House number, sole trader status proof, or a business bank statement. Small retailers operating below the £90,000 threshold can trade without a VAT number. Learn more in our guide on how to buy wholesale without a business in the UK.

Marketplace Sellers (FBA & eBay)

Amazon FBA and eBay sellers require official trade invoices that confirm brand ungating criteria. British distributors dispatch goods directly to local prep centres and regional fulfilment hubs. Read our vetted directory of UK wholesale suppliers for Amazon FBA and eBay.
