Wholesale Hookahs Online – How To
Finding wholesale hookah companies online isn’t very hard, there are several reputable companies that specialize in making and bringing hookahs to retailers. Some of the biggest hookah sellers online have a wholesale program that you can access through a simple application process. Depending on where you like, they might require you to have a registered company or corporation.
We have applied to become a retailer for several hookah manufacturers and the only thing we needed is an EIN, or a tax ID number for corporations. The US government uses these numbers to track the amount of money the company makes and charge taxes accordingly.
Like mentioned above, hookah wholesalers are all over the world. There are two types of wholesalers that currently operate:
- Manufacturers: Hookah manufacturers are the ones that actually make the hookahs in their factories with raw materials and sell them in bulk to registered retailers or wholesalers/importers/exporters around the world. These companies have no store front for small stores or consumers to buy from, they rely on wholesalers/retailers and exporters to buy their product and re-sell it at a profit. They usually require a large down payment to start production and a line of credit from a bank to continue the work. Hookah manufacturers are responsible for keeping quality in the hookah as high as possible, while maintaining costs as low as possible so retailers can sell them. The ideal thing would be to deal with the hookah manufacturer directly and avoid high costs. You’d make the most money if you were able to deal with the hookah manufacturer directly.
- Importers/Exporters: Companies that import or export hookahs to other countries from manufacturers are the guys you would want to deal with if you don’t have much capital to buy alot of inventory. Hookah importers bring hookahs from the Middle East into America and re-sell them for a small profit, they want to sell alot of hookahs for a little bit of profit. Exporters take hookahs outside of the country they were manufactured in and sell them somewhere else. Once you find an importer of hookahs, you’ll want to start their process of verification. They usually are hard to trust and I recommend you deal with an established importer that has previous happy clients.
Finding a company to supply you with wholesale hookahs to start a business isn’t hard, but you need to make sure the wholesaler is reputable and has quality product. Otherwise you could have a shipment of hookahs that is damaged and cannot be sold to the consumer, ruining any opportunity to profit.
The higher quality your shipment is, the more profit you will make in the end. Just remember to ask for references and check them out throughly. Wholesale hookahs are not hard to come by and are a great business to be in!
