Category Positioning
Your line is presented within its specific trade category with editorial context — not buried in an alphabetical product list. Contractors see your equipment in the context of their work.
The Partnership Program
Supplier Partnership
A focused B2B sales channel for commercial equipment suppliers. We connect qualified manufacturers and dealer reps with an established network of contractor buyers who are actively specifying and purchasing.
What Supplier Partners Get
Verified Contractor Access
Every contractor in the Drain & Dry Supply network is a verified commercial professional. No retail browsers, no consumer comparison shoppers — only active trade buyers.
Contextualized Inquiries
When a contractor reaches out about your product, they come with context — what they're working on, what category they need, and what they're comparing. Not a cold inquiry.
Named Account Contact
You have a dedicated contact at Drain & Dry Supply who manages your onboarding, catalog updates, and ongoing platform relationship. A partner, not a support ticket.
Who Qualifies as a Supplier Partner
We work with manufacturers and dealer reps whose product lines serve the contractor trades in our network. Strong supplier partners share these characteristics.
Commercial-Grade Product Lines
Your equipment is designed and specced for professional contractor use — not consumer-grade or retail-positioned product.
Relevant Trade Category
Your product line fits within drain & sewer, restoration, inspection, or hoses/fittings. We don't carry general hardware or unrelated trade categories.
Distribution Capability
You have the fulfillment capacity and logistics to support contractor orders in our service area. We don't require exclusivity — your current distribution model works.
The Partnership Process, Step by Step
Apply
Complete the supplier application with your product line details, category, and distribution information. We review every application within 5–7 business days and reach out to qualified suppliers directly.
Onboarding
Approved suppliers go through a brief onboarding call with your dedicated Drain & Dry Supply contact. We collect product information, establish catalog positioning, and confirm how contractor inquiries will be routed to you.
Go Live
Your product line goes live in the Drain & Dry Supply catalog. Contractors in our network can view your equipment, and qualified inquiries are routed directly to you to manage as commercial accounts.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Drain & Dry Supply take a commission on sales?
Partnership program terms are discussed during the application and onboarding process. Pricing and commission structures are confirmed before any agreement is signed. Contact us if you'd like to discuss specifics before applying.
Do I need to change my current distribution setup?
No. We work with your existing distribution model. Whether you sell direct to contractors, through distributors, or both — the partnership integrates with your current approach. We route inquiries to you; you manage fulfillment your way.
How many contractor buyers are in your network?
We don't publish specific network size numbers publicly. What we can tell you: every contractor in our network is a verified commercial professional across five trade disciplines. Quality of buyer relationship matters more to us than raw count.
Can I supply in more than one category?
Yes. If your product line spans multiple categories — for example, a manufacturer who makes both inspection tools and drain cleaning equipment — you can be positioned in both. Note this in your application and your dedicated contact will handle the multi-category setup during onboarding.
How long does the application review take?
Applications are reviewed within 5–7 business days. Qualified suppliers receive a direct call or email from their assigned Drain & Dry Supply contact. If your application is not a fit at this time, you'll receive a brief note explaining why.
