Starting my own business.

tiles · 2014-01-16 21:33:48

Hi all, I'm thinking of starting my own business, (gift shop-frames, cutlery,lamps, homeware). I'm just wondering where I would source merchandise. Is there wholesale warehouses in Ireland or would I have to go elsewhere i.e Britain even China. Cheers

Where are you looking at opening? There are a few places in Ireland but you would mainly be buying from the UK. Birmingham & Paris are the main ones everyone of our major suppliers are at both of those. Birmingham also sees a lot of Irish designers and is probably as good as Showcase for finding local designers.
