Distribution
Become a Distributor of Our Products
Thank you for your interest in the products offered by Domaine des Nobles Alpagas Inc. (DNA).
We work with alpaca farms and specialty retailers across Canada to offer their customers a selection of quality alpaca products, as well as our alpaca socks manufactured in Quebec.
We place great importance on the quality of our distribution network and on building long-term relationships with our partners.
Apply to Become a Distributor
We particularly welcome applications from alpaca farms, whose expertise and clientele naturally align with our products. We also consider applications from other retailers whose activities and positioning are compatible with our product line.
Each application is reviewed individually. Access to our distributor program is therefore subject to approval in order to maintain a distribution network that is consistent with our products and values.
To submit your application, simply use the form available on our Contact Us page and provide the following information:
- name of the contact person;
- company name;
- complete mailing address;
- shipping address, if different;
- telephone number;
- email address.
We will contact you once we have reviewed your application.
Access to Our Distributor Area
Once your application has been approved, we will provide you with the information and access code for our distributor area.
This access will allow you to view directly through our online store:
- your distributor pricing;
- available products;
- available sizes and colours;
- minimum quantities applicable to each product;
- and place your orders online whenever it is convenient for you.
Depending on the product, some items are available individually, while others are sold in minimum quantities specified directly in our online store.
Minimum Order
The minimum order for our distributors is CAD $300 before taxes and shipping costs.
Volume Discounts
Volume discounts are automatically applied based on the value of each individual order:
- $2,000: 3% discount
- $4,000: 4% discount
- $6,000: 5% discount
Volume discounts are calculated on each order individually. Separate orders cannot be combined to qualify for a higher discount level.
Payment
All distributor orders must be prepaid before shipment. We do not offer credit accounts.
Both the merchandise and shipping charges must therefore be paid in full before the order is shipped.
Shipping
We select the carrier offering the most competitive rate based on the destination, number of packages, dimensions and weight. The carrier used may therefore vary depending on the region and the specific characteristics of the shipment.
Shipping charges are calculated separately once the order has been prepared and must be paid before shipment.
Pickup at the Domaine
Would you prefer to pick up your order directly at the Domaine?
When completing your order, simply enter “pickup” in the appropriate field at checkout.
Once your order has been prepared, it will be placed on our pickup shelf and will be ready for you when you arrive.
