Hi
I am currently in employment and trying to make the push to become a fully fledged startup.
I sell high value sourced clothing fashion / accessories to wholesale and independent retailers small scale as it is part time only.
How do i find information, obtain listings addresses, contacts for other wholesalers independent retailers other than thompson local / Yell, local library as i want to sell across the UK.
I can obtain further stock but i need to push the stock out. I am having difficulty finding new customers to approach. trade show a bit expensive at the moment.
Surely similar type of information has been obtained before ?.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks.

Business link may be able to help you out but you may have to pay.
I have found the simplest way, actually, is just to plough through Yell or similar and just copy and paste details into a spreadsheet!!
I know what you mean though and I could do with the very same myself!!! Let me know if you find anything!

You can get a lot of good information by looking at clothing brands websites on the internet.
I suppose its only relevant for independent retailers- but try looking for a similar brand who have a strong retail presence and look at their stockists list.
For example Jonny there are loads of surf brands who list every shop who carry their label (pm me if you want any names - save you trawling though them all). It wont be a perfect match but its a good start.

I may have to give business link a go, or after a cash injection look at research or marketeer agencies.
Does anybody know any good ones or have any experience of these for this kind of work ....?
