Want to start a brick and mortar store selling garden and home decor.?
What specific type of items are you looking to sell. Home Garden makes me think of paints, wallpaper etc. Many manufactures don't often sell direct you buy through a vendor. Usually they price according to quantity of items like masking tape for example, a case will be less then if you intermixed numerous sizes. I don't know if 5 Star or Pecoa deliver to Canada, those are 2 co's we dealt with. Some items can have a big mark up while others are marginal, having a good POS set up for pricing, inventory can show you the cost when scanning can even block an item from being discounted if its a marginal mark up.
Contact the various manufacturers directly and ask for a list of their authorized distributors/wholesalers. Honest reliable drop shipper is an oxymoron. You will not be buying at wholesale, but close to retail and make no money.
