Trade and stockists
Stock our brands
For commercial venues, pro shops, coaching academies and retailers. We supply Aireo, Pickleball Labs and custom club merchandise to businesses around Australia.
We work with venues in more than one way, because a busy pro shop and a two-court club are not the same business. The first conversation is about which of those fits you, not about paperwork. We would rather build a handful of accounts properly than sign everybody and service nobody.
Brands your members cannot buy everywhere
We bring Aireo into Australia, and Pickleball Labs is our own line. Most of what is on your wall right now is something your members can also buy from four other websites.
More than one way to work together
We already run several different arrangements with venues around the country and they are not all the same. Which one suits you depends on your site, your foot traffic and whether you sell gear today at all. That is a conversation worth having properly, not a form to tick.
Stock that ships from Sydney
The stock is already in the country. Reorders leave Sydney in days, not the two to three weeks your members wait on a US site, and that is usually the difference between a sale on the day and a sale you never hear about.
Two people, not a distributor's rep
You deal with Ben and Chris. We play, we run the store, and we answer for what we supply. Plenty of venues hire paddles out and sell nothing, and that is the sort of thing worth talking through with someone who has actually stood behind a counter.
What happens after you send this
- Ben or Chris gets back to you personally. A real conversation about your courts, your foot traffic and whether you sell gear today, because a 4-court venue with a staffed shop and a 2-court venue with a vending machine are not the same account.
- You get the specifics in writing. Which arrangement we would suggest for your venue, what an opening order looks like and how it all works, on one page. We do not publish any of that here, and you get all of it before you commit to anything.
- If a demo makes more sense than an order, we will say so. Paddles sell when people hit with them. Sometimes the right first step is one paddle on your desk and a fifteen-minute staff briefing on who each one suits.
- Display support comes with the order, never before it. Spec and warranty cards turn up when there is stock on the shelf for them to sit behind.
- We keep selling direct. We sell online across Australia, including in your postcode. It is the thing most suppliers leave for a stockist to work out later, so we would rather put it in the first email.
Already stock something and it is working? Say so on the form. We are more interested in the gap in your range than in replacing what already sells for you, and we will tell you if we think there is no gap.
Running a not-for-profit community club rather than a commercial venue? The club programme is the one you want, and it costs you nothing. If you are a coach or a player with an audience rather than a shopfront, try ambassadors and affiliates.
