Case study
Taking a premium supplements brand to retail.
A high-end supplements producer selling mainly direct wanted to reach more retail customers without diluting its premium positioning. We mapped the routes to market, set out channel pricing, and prepared the brand for marketplace and retail distribution.

Questions
Distribution with Starla.
Do you take exclusive distribution?
Both are possible. We agree exclusivity by territory and channel, based on the commitment each side makes.
Which markets do you cover?
The UK, Amazon's European marketplaces and the US, where we already sell a number of products. We'll tell you where we think there is demand for yours.
Do you buy stock or sell on consignment?
We discuss the model case by case. Most partnerships start with Starla buying an initial order.
What do you need from us to start?
Your product range, trade prices, any existing channel agreements and product compliance documents.
