Co-operation model · D2C

Scale Globally
via Amazon and e-commerce

D2C (Direct to Consumer) is most scalable business model: We don’t just ship your product, we buy it first and then we sell it all over the world. We sell it as the merchant across marketplaces like Amazon, eBay and our own storefronts, into 125+ countries.

How it works

5 steps. 1 accountable team.

01Intro

Send us what you make.

Category, price range, where you sell today, roughly how much you produce. No deck required. NDA on request.

02Evaluation

Partnership Agreement.

We agree on the terms to distribute the products internationally and setup the brand in multiple countries. TPL will operate as the brand official distribution point and will operate all the official websites and storefronts in each country.

03We buy

Initial purchase order.

We buy your stock and take title into our warehouse. The stock is then forwarded in multiple 3PL and Amazon Fulfillment Centers internationally to cover all regions.

04We take it live

Listings, pricing, promotion.

We sell as the merchant across multiple marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, eMAG, our own online storefronts and supplier flavored localized eshops: we run content, pricing and promotion.

05We operate

Ship, care, repeat.

We make the sale and then we ship internationally or serve via our 3PL to 125+ countries, run multilingual customer care, and handle returns and warranty, under 1 roof.

Best when You make a strong product and want everything else off your desk. You supply volume and want proven channels without building D2C. Deep catalog or made-to-order: committing stock upfront makes no sense. You keep ownership and accounts; operations are what's eating you. The operation is the bottleneck: you want it multiplied, not outsourced.
The trade-off We take it on selectively: your brand must earn repeat purchases across borders. Less brand-building than D2C. We sell where demand already exists. Slower delivery promise than stocked models; margins are tighter for both of us. Your working capital stays tied up in inventory because you keep the inventory. Your people keep the work. They don't keep their habits.
