Brands Testimonial

Sisuu

To join PREP, was an easy decision and one I have not looked back on. The guidance, vision, and genuine passion from the PREP team, has been phenomenal, along with the platform itself. It has made a scaling my business, achievable and enjoyable

Saturday Night Pasta

Prep Local has been a game changer for my business. It has helped take Saturday Night Pasta from a side hustle to a professional small business. Their dedication, passion and transparency has made them feel part of SNP, rather than a disconnected, external partner. This has allowed me to focus on what I do well, rather than try and do it all. We’ve got big plans together and I can’t wait to see Saturday Night Pasta grow

Dayse

Prep Local has simplified Dayse expansion from a start up to a scale up, from transparent deliveries to invoices and new stockists all in the one place

This includes straightforward ordering processes, logistics, consolidated deliveries, invoicing, collecting payments, facilitating reorder requests, customer support, and more.

Nonetheless, the responsibility of initiating sales with stores lies with you.

No, we do not require exclusivity. However, we are unable to accommodate exclusivity agreements with other parties, which means we cannot restrict the retailers that have access to purchase your products through our online catalog.
