Find and Connect with the Right Wholesale Partners Using JOOR Discover

One of the biggest struggles that fashion businesses trying to expand today face is identifying and connecting with well-suited partners. The right partner can be the difference between success and stagnation, but researching for new stockists or suppliers is extremely time-consuming.

‍

Our latest industry survey revealed that the vast majority of retail buyers (approximately 66%) are looking for new brands all year round. Given the increasing industry-wide need for easier connection-making, we recognized that as the fashion industry’s leading wholesale management ecosystem, we were uniquely positioned to offer a solution. 

‍

We are proud to be the home of an expansive fashion network that includes the industry’s most powerful players, most of whom are often open to establishing new wholesale relationships—they just needed software to make it easier for them to seek out the right business partners. Which led us to create our newest launch.
