Drygoods Wholesaler Needed

[FaviaSteve]

I am looking for contact info (web address or phone #) for a few good drygoods wholesalers. I am starting a setup and maintenance business of reef tanks in luxury homes, doctors' offices, etc. I won't have a retail location and I can get livestock from a local store. I'm in Utah.
What is the markup % on most drygoods (wholesale price compared with an online retailer like marine depot)?

Thanks,
Steve

You could probably contact the American Pet Products Manufactuers Association for a list of distributors that serve your area.

Unless you have a store front, many wholesalers won't deal with you.

If you are dealing with a local shop for livestock, why not see if you can strike a deal for dry goods?
