Hi I am new to Wholesale Forum,

I am thinking of starting to sell camping accessories and equipment online via Ebay, Amazon etc. I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on where to source goods from.

Any advice on reliable wholesalers and where to start would be much appreciated

Thanks

Mark

Hi Mark,

Welcome to Wholesale Forum

Have a look at the following selection of UK trade suppliers of camping supplies:

• Sunnflair
• Dalesman
• Trade Enquiries - Camping & Outdoor manufacturers
• Thatchreed Limited - Miltary Clothing and Equipment Wholesalers

To find many more verified trade suppliers of camping supplies from the UK and the rest of the EU, try using the two largest UK online trade directories of verified wholesale suppliers eSources and Wholesale Deals. Both list thousands of verified wholesalers, distributors, manufacturers and drop shippers.

Have a look at the following results:

To obtain the best prices for your camping supplies and be able to offer a range of affordable products to a wider customer base, you should consider importing unbranded products like tents, sleeping bags and rug sacks from Chinese suppliers. Many young people who go out camping for the first time at festivals, sunny locations and at the beach are looking for cheap camping supplies in order to save money on their trip. Because of the low manufacturing cost in China, you can source at very competitive prices and be able to target the mass market. Have a look at the following Chinese suppliers:

• China Camping Supplies Wholesale Suppliers - Chinese Wholesale Camping Supply Directory
• China Travel and Outdoors Wholesale Suppliers - Chinese Wholesale Travel & Outdoor Directory

The period when camping supplies sell best is quite brief, we suggest sourcing camping products ahead of time and be prepared to sell them quickly, then once the season is close to an end start discounting your products, consider selling them in bulk wholesale, bundle them, or use them as loss leaders to attract sales for complementary or new season products.
