    Hi everyone!

    My current supplier of goods has not been up to standard recently, so I am looking for a new wholesaler/supplier.

    I deal in Sporting Goods, mainly official football kits and training wear. I am only a small store at the moment so don't have the funds to buy direct from the brands. Can anyone recommend a supplier/wholesaler who is good for small businesses that sell official football shirts, preferably this years?

    Any help would be great thanks!

    I suspect anyone that has a good wholesaler is not going to ruin their own business by giving information to a competitor.

    Ask the brand owners who their distributors are near to you. As above no one is likely to give that info if they're competitors.

    Or go to a trade show that includes sporting goods.

    Actually I think this is the right answer to a lot of these queries- go to a trade show.
