Seed wholesale enquiries without an account or commitment

This orientation is for garden shops and seed retailers that want to explore wholesale seed supply before committing to anything formal. It explains how the Bulk Seeds International catalogue is intended for trade buyers, how far you can go without an account, and why sending an enquiry is a non-binding first step rather than an order. Use it to judge whether your shop can start with a catalogue selection or a quick enquiry by species.

Who the catalogue is intended for

The catalogue serves seed retailers, garden shops and resellers buying seeds for resale. It is a trade offer, not a consumer shop. If your business sells seeds onward to customers, you are the audience the catalogue is written for. If you are buying only for your own garden, the trade structure will not fit your needs.

No account is required to begin

You do not need to register, create a login or open an account before you can look at the range or send a request. Business contact details are provided when you submit an enquiry. This means a shop can review the offer and make a first approach without an administrative set-up step in front of it.

An enquiry is not an order

Submitting an enquiry does not place an order. The supplier reviews your selection before preparing a quotation. No payment is taken through the website. This design lets you test interest, availability and supply conditions before any commitment, which is useful when you are still deciding on range and volume.

How the catalogue is organised

The catalogue is arranged by seed group, species and variety. The main groups are vegetables, flowers, herbs, and microgreens and sprouts, with a species A to Z index as a cross-cutting view. Product pages show available descriptions, reference numbers and listed prices. You can browse a group, work through the species index, or go straight to a species you already know you need.

Listed prices and what they mean

Listed prices and quantity tiers appear on variety pages, species lists and quick enquiry pages. They are an orientation for your planning, not the final word. Final prices and shipping charges are confirmed in the quotation once availability and destination have been checked. Treat the catalogue figures as a starting point for comparing options.

Building a selection and sending it

You can select varieties and quantities in the catalogue and send them together through the enquiry basket, or use a quick enquiry for a single species. Quantities can be edited or items removed before sending, and the available pack sizes are confirmed in the quotation. The basket stores your selection in the current browser until you remove it, clear browser data or submit it; contact details are not saved in the basket.

When you only need one species

If your shop already knows which species it needs, a quick enquiry by species is the most direct route. If instead you are still reviewing your range, browsing seed groups or the species index gives you a broader picture first. Both entry points lead to the same non-binding review and quotation step, so you can choose based on how far your planning has progressed.

Unlisted varieties and scope questions

The catalogue does not have to be the limit of what you ask about. If a species or variety you want is not listed, you can email its botanical or variety name together with the quantity and destination. This keeps your range planning flexible without requiring you to wait for a catalogue update.

What to include in a first enquiry

Include the species, varieties, quantities and destination in your enquiry. These details let the supplier check availability and supply conditions rather than asking back. For a first approach, a clear list of what you want and where it is going is more useful than a broad description of your shop.

Correcting an enquiry after sending

If you need to change something after an enquiry has gone out, email with its reference. The enquiry reference is the thread that keeps later corrections attached to the right request. This is separate from agreed orders, where the order or quotation reference and a clear description of the issue are what matter.

Where destination questions lead

Destination details shape what the supplier can check, and official import guidance for a market has to be verified separately from the catalogue. The supplier publishes separate guidance notes for markets such as Australia and Great Britain, with a distinct link for Northern Ireland. Use those notes as a pointer to official sources rather than as a substitute for them.

Deciding how to start

Begin with a catalogue selection if you are still shaping your range and want to compare groups and varieties. Begin with a quick enquiry by species if you already know what you need and want a direct route to a quotation. Either way, no account and no order is required to take the first step, and the quotation remains the point where prices, pack sizes and shipping are settled.
