Why I think you should buy gloves in bulk!
For the decades I’ve been in the glove business, retailers and distributors often ask me:
-Can we get a lower price?
My answer is simple. - Get the gloves in bulk”, and it’s a smart way of purchasing.?
Here are some of the reasons why I think so.
Buy in bulk = lower the cost
The most obvious benefit of buying in bulk is that, the higher the volume, the lower the price per glove. You reduce the cost to increase your margin or prepare for sales campaigns, selling gloves at a lower price but with the same profit. Additionally, gloves have a long shelf life, and they will stay in good condition when you store them in the right conditions. To me, it is a low-risk investment.
You will save a lot of time
I think shopping is fun, but shopping for PPE takes time from your other tasks. You don’t have to place orders that often when you buy in bulk. The time you save, you can use it on other things that can generate income instead.

Make sure you have stock ready for delivery, no matter what
Even if the global logistic situation is extreme, it demonstrates how important it is to be able to deliver on time. Buying in bulk is an easy way to safeguard from any market changes. Whenever there’s a request from a customer, you can make sure they always get their product on time.?
That’s how most of my bulk purchase customers gain confidence from their customers, and they will continue to do that. Shouldn’t you?
Bulk buying differently - Private brand
I have worked with white label gloves for many years. Our gloves with our customer's brand or logo are working well. If you can offer white label gloves to your customers with their logo, you could even keep some stock for them when you buy in bulk. That way you have pretty much a guaranteed returning customer since you will be the only one with immediate stock when they need more gloves.
On our website is more information about the concept we call "Private Brand"
In my opinion, buying in bulk should be part of any healthy purchasing strategy. These are my thoughts. What do you think? Drop me a comment.
