Simple by design
First conversation to first order in 5 steps.
We’ve kept the onboarding process straightforward on purpose. Your time is valuable.
01 - First Conversation & Placing Test Order
Initial call Or Email
A quick 15-minute call or a few emails is all it takes to get started. Some brands simply share their price list and we place a test order straight away no lengthy process needed. We work at whatever pace suits your brand.
02 - Agreement
Agreement
We make this as flexible as possible. If you prefer a formal signed agreement, we have one ready. If you prefer to keep it simple, a clear written email covering the key terms works just as well to start. We adapt to what your business is comfortable with.
03 - First Bulk Wholesale Order
First Bulk Wholesale Order
After the test order confirms everything runs smoothly, we place our first full bulk wholesale order. This is where the real partnership begins consistent volume, reliable purchasing, and a channel you can plan your inventory around.
04 - Listing Setup
Listing Setup
This is where SAFA goes beyond what most distributors offer. While inventory is in transit, our design team builds a fully professional Amazon listing including A+ content, lifestyle imagery layouts, and brand-standard copy. Nothing goes live until you’ve reviewed and approved every element.
05 - Ongoing Growth
Ongoing Growth
This is where the real value of working with SAFA shows up. Once we’re live, you have a reliable, professional Amazon distribution channel running in the background without demanding your time or attention.

partnership agreement
We sign a clear, straightforward partnership agreement before any money or product changes hands. This protects both of us — and makes our commitments to you legally binding, not just verbal promises.
- MAP policy: Your minimum advertised price, agreed and signed
- Brand guidelines: How your brand is to be presented — your rules
- Authorized products: Exactly which SKUs we are permitted to sell
- Communication terms: How often we report, who approves what, and escalation contacts
- We provide our full documentation: EIN, VA resale cert, Amazon credentials
- 2–3 business days to review and sign
first wholesale order
Once the agreement is signed, we place our first wholesale purchase order — using your standard wholesale process, at your standard wholesale terms. No special demands, no negotiating your pricing down.
- We submit a formal PO through your existing system
- First orders are typically modest — we scale as we prove the channel
- We inspect every unit on receipt and flag any quality concerns immediately
- Payment on your standard net terms — no special treatment required from your end
- PO submitted within 1 week of signed agreement

- Title, bullets, description written to your brand voice and guidelines
- Your approved photography and brand imagery — no stock photos
- Proper categorization, keywords, and backend attributes
