I was wondering the process of trying to sell your shirts wholesale to stores with the same target market.

If so can anybody offer any advice to myself that would be great! I have a hiphop apparel line and want to contact hiphop stores. What kind of prices do you sell the shirts to them? Ways to go about it etc. etc.

Thanks!

Hi Nate, here's a good past thread with information on selling wholesale to retailers:

50% wholesale is pretty standard, i think?

half of what you intend to retail them for

That's usually the rule of thumb, but I'm trying to deal with a company right now that wants to buy for LESS than 50% retail. The thing is, it depends on how badly you want to sell your product.

With the one I'm working on, it's a trademarked design, so I can't just go and sell it anywhere. We're basically just a contractor for a company that has a license to use this design.

keep in mind you can bargain, and you can take, let's say 35% for a larger order.

what kind of design are you working with, just out of curiosity?
