Distribution partners
Geodesic Dome Distributors & Wholesale — Factory-Direct Terms
Wholesale polycarbonate domes from two units, factory direct. A workable partnership needs market fit, training, spares and ownership of after-sales — not only a price list.
Define the market you can serve.
Identify target countries, customer segments, current channels, installation capacity and the reason this range fits your portfolio.
Move from an idea to a visible configuration.
Select a launch range, not every SKU.
- Compact samples for demonstration and home leads
- Core commercial round sizes for hospitality
- Oval and extended formats for project-led selling
- Accessories selected for the local climate and channel
Plan how prospects will buy.
- Sample or showroom configuration
- Lead qualification and quotation ownership
- Local site survey and installation path
- Freight, storage and last-mile handling
Local knowledge decides the recommended bundle.
Document sun, rain, wind exposure, seasonality and typical operating use. Recommendations must stay within confirmed compatibility and evidence.
Agree responsibility before territory.
- Sample and volume terms require a written quotation
- Sales and installation training scope must be agreed
- Define warranty intake, diagnostics and spare-parts flow
- Territory or exclusivity is not implied without a signed agreement
Equip the channel with controlled claims.
Partners receive verified product records and labelled visual assets. Unverified performance claims and anonymous images should not enter local sales materials.

Volumes are United States figures, shown to help you size a market — not a forecast of your sales. Ask us for the same data for your own country before you commit to a launch range; we will run it and send it with your quotation.
Four revenue lines, not one.
- The dome itself — factory direct from two units. Retail anchors are published on this site, so you can see the level you are selling against before you quote.
- Configuration — ventilation, shade, screens, locks, lighting and extension modules are chosen per project, and each one is a line on your invoice.
- Installation and site work — foundation, platform, power and fit-out sit outside our scope, which means they sit inside yours.
- Spares and service — the shell is modular. Panels, seals, hardware and seasonal servicing become a recurring line as your installed base grows.
Distributor pricing applies from two units. Margin, payment terms and territory are agreed in writing against your market plan. We do not publish one global discount table, because a market with its own installation team is not the same business as a market without one.
Volume first, territory second — both in writing.
- A sample or first unit, so your team has something to show and something to practise installing.
- An agreed launch range — two or three sizes that fit your market, not the whole catalogue.
- Product records, dimensioned drawings and labelled image assets for your own sales material.
- Installation and after-sales training scope agreed before the first shipment leaves.
- Territory reviewed against the first-year plan and confirmed only in a signed agreement — so it means something when you have it.
Partnership terms
What is available, what is negotiated.
Some terms are fixed for every partner; others are agreed per programme. This is what a workable conversation starts from.
| Topic | What is available | What is negotiated |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum order | From two units at wholesale terms | Sample / first-order programmes |
| Samples & display | Sample and display-unit programmes | Terms, timing and freight for display units |
| Territory & exclusivity | Territory-based programmes | Exclusivity, targets and review periods |
| Annual targets | Volume-based tiering | Targets, tier boundaries and renewal |
| Lead time | Confirmed per order and production schedule | Reserved capacity for committed programmes |
| Private label / OEM | Private-label and OEM scope defined per programme | Branding, packaging and documentation scope |
| Marketing support | Product assets, specification sheets and photography | Co-marketing and launch plans |
| Spare parts | Replacement panels and spares identified from packing lists | Local stocking arrangements |
| Warranty responsibility | Factory warranty terms in the purchase agreement | Local service and claim-handling roles |
| Training | Product and installation guidance | On-site or structured training programmes |
| Pricing protection | Published price list with revision date | Fixed-price windows for committed orders |
| Lead ownership | Referral and territory lead handling agreed in writing | Assignment and reporting |
This summary states what is available and what is negotiated — it is not a commitment. Terms are confirmed in the distribution agreement.
