What a distributor is for

Moving boxes is the easy part of this business

Anyone with a warehouse and a freight account can forward a container. What a buyer is actually paying a distributor for is judgement about what to stock, discipline about what to reject and consistency about what arrives next month.

A store owner running a counter does not have a buying office. There is nobody whose full time job is to watch which handsets are selling in that neighborhood, track which charging standard is about to become mainstream, test a sample before it goes on the wall or notice that the item on peg fourteen has not moved since spring. In a chain, a team of people does that work. In an independent store, it either happens between customers or it does not happen at all.

That is the gap Higa Trader LLC was built to fill. Every program on this page exists because a customer asked us to take one more piece of that work off their desk. Assortment planning came from buyers who did not know how to split an eight foot wall. Replenishment came from stores that kept running out of the same four items. Private label came from accounts that had grown large enough to want their own name on the packaging rather than ours.

None of it requires a contract, a portal login or a minimum annual commitment. You can buy a single mixed pallet and never speak to us about anything else, or you can hand us the whole accessory department and let it run on a standing schedule. Most accounts start with the first and end up somewhere near the second.

Eight ways to buy from us

Nothing here is exclusive of anything else. A repair chain opening a second location might use bulk supply, opening packages and replenishment at the same time, on one account and one invoice.

Program 01

Bulk Wholesale Supply

Case quantity and pallet quantity supply across all sixteen accessory categories, priced on landed cost with volume breaks that reward consolidation.

What is included

  • Mixed pallets so a small buyer can still reach a volume tier
  • Published case counts and inner packs on every quote
  • Volume breaks at case, half pallet and full pallet levels
  • Blind price protection on quoted items for thirty days
Program 02

Assortment Planning

Tell us your store format and shelf space and we will build a starter assortment sized to your footprint, your customer base and your budget.

What is included

  • Planograms sized for four foot, eight foot and twelve foot accessory walls
  • Device model coverage matched to the handsets your market actually carries
  • Good, better and best price laddering inside every category

  • Adjust quantities up to forty eight hours before each ship date
  • Automatic substitution rules for temporary out of stock items

Order flexibility

We are small enough to say yes to the awkward request

Large distributors run on systems that were designed for large customers. When a buyer asks for something the system did not anticipate, the answer is usually no. Here, the answer is usually a question about when you need it.

Mixed pallets

Almost nobody needs a full pallet of one item. Build a pallet from cases across cables, cases, glass, audio and impulse gadgets and it still counts as a pallet for pricing. This single policy is why a store doing four thousand dollars a month can reach a tier that a category by category supplier would never offer them.

Split cases on select items

On slower moving lines with a high case count, such as laptop chargers, docking stations or specific handset models, we will break a case rather than force you to own thirty units of something that sells four a month. Items eligible for splitting are marked on your quote so there is no guessing.

Staged delivery

Buy the whole program at one price and take it in scheduled releases. Store build outs, seasonal resets and cash flow all benefit from separating the buying decision from the receiving date. We hold the balance in our warehouse rather than in your stockroom.

Custom packing

Cartons packed by store, by department or by planogram section rather than by item, with your labels on the outside. A multi location account can send a shipment straight to each store instead of paying somebody to break down a bulk delivery at a central point.

Ask for the thing you assume is not possible

Unbranded polybags for a bench, retail blisters for the same item on the wall, your barcode printed at the factory, a delivery appointment on a Tuesday morning because that is when you have staff. We have done all of these. The worst outcome is that we explain why a particular request would cost more than it saves you.

Pricing philosophy

Quoted backward from the shelf price you need to hit

Most distributor pricing starts at landed cost and works forward, which tells you what the item costs but not whether it will work in your store. We prefer to start at the other end.

When a buyer tells us the shelf price they need, the conversation becomes much more useful. If a nine ninety nine retail on a braided cable needs a landed cost under a certain number and the item you asked about cannot get there, we would rather say so and propose the item that can. Selling you inventory that has to be marked down in four months is a bad trade for both of us, and it costs us an account we would otherwise keep for years.

Everything is quoted line by line. There is no blanket percentage off a list price that nobody pays, because that structure hides which items are actually competitive. Your quote shows unit cost, case count, inner pack, extended cost and freight, separately, so you can see exactly where the money is going before you commit.

Freight is stated up front rather than added at invoice. Buyers who have been burned by a surprise freight line understand why this matters. If a quote qualifies for prepaid freight at a certain order value, the quote says so and tells you how far away you are.

Quoted pricing is held for thirty days. Component costs and ocean freight rates do move, sometimes sharply, but a buyer cannot plan a season against a number that changes while they are thinking about it. Inside that window the price is the price, and we absorb the difference if the market moves against us.

1

You send a target

A product list, a competitor invoice, a photo of your wall or simply the retail price points you are trying to hit. Nothing formal is required to start.

2

We price the line

Each item is quoted at your quantity with case count, inner pack and lead time shown. Volume breaks appear at case, half pallet and full pallet levels so you can see what the next tier is worth before you decide.

3

We check the margin works

If the landed cost will not support your shelf price at a healthy margin, we flag it and offer the alternative that will. This is the step other suppliers skip.

4

The price holds for thirty days

Plan the buy, walk the wall, talk to your partner, come back in three weeks. The quote is still valid and the freight number has not moved either.

What every quote states

  • Unit cost quoted per line item at your actual quantity
  • Volume breaks shown at case, half pallet and full pallet
  • Case count and inner pack so you can plan shelf replenishment
  • Freight stated up front, including any prepaid threshold
  • Lead time on anything that is not in stock today
  • Thirty day price hold from the date the quote is issued

Who this is for

Ten channels buy these programs, and each one uses them differently

A convenience store and a marketplace seller can order the same charging cable and need almost nothing else in common. Packaging, case pack, delivery cadence and merchandising support all change to match the channel.

Independent Electronics RetailPhone and Device Repair ShopsConvenience Stores and Gas StationsEcommerce and Marketplace SellersDiscount and Dollar StoresWireless Carrier and Authorized DealersGift, Travel and Airport RetailGaming and Entertainment RetailCorporate and Promotional BuyersSchools, Offices and Institutions

If your channel is not on that list, it usually still fits. Museums, hotels, vending operators, cruise terminals and municipal fleets have all bought from us without ever appearing on a page like this one.
