The Novique Buyer Process
A structured approach to wholesale clothing and footwear enquiries. From buyer brief to range discussion — the process is designed to be commercially focused and buyer-led throughout.
How a wholesale enquiry progresses
Each wholesale enquiry follows a clear structure. The buyer leads the process by providing context and requirements at each stage.
-
Buyer Brief
The buyer explains their retail audience, product category and intended sales channel. This forms the foundation of the enquiry. A clear brief — covering who you are buying for, what you need and when you need it — allows Novique to structure the conversation appropriately.
-
Category Direction
Clothing, footwear or mixed requirements are clarified. Whether the buyer is looking for a single category — such as womenswear or casual footwear — or a combined range across clothing and footwear, this stage defines the product scope of the enquiry.
-
Style and Quantity Requirements
Season, style direction and quantity range are reviewed. The buyer's aesthetic positioning — whether contemporary, occasion-led, casualwear or mixed — helps shape the supply conversation. Quantity ranges inform commercial feasibility. Neither is expected to be precise at this stage.
-
Availability and Supply Terms
Availability, timing and commercial supply terms are discussed per enquiry. Availability is subject to confirmation and is not guaranteed in advance. Supply terms — including quantities, pricing and fulfilment — are agreed per request and are not published as fixed commitments.
-
Range Discussion
Suitable enquiry routes are shaped around the buyer's category, quantity and commercial direction. Supply options appropriate to the buyer's brief are presented for review and discussion. The range discussion is a commercial conversation, not a fixed catalogue offer.
-
Follow-Up
Future or recurring requirements can be reviewed when needed. For buyers with seasonal or repeat buying plans, follow-up supply conversations can be structured around an ongoing wholesale relationship — subject to availability and supply terms at the time of each enquiry.
What to include in your buyer brief
A well-prepared buyer brief makes the supply enquiry process more focused and commercially relevant. Include as much detail as you can — the more context you provide, the more tailored the response.
- Target customer description
- Clothing category, footwear, or both
- Quantity range or approximate buying volume
- Season — SS, AW or year-round
- Style direction and aesthetic positioning
- Price positioning (if the buyer chooses to share)
- Sales channel — boutique, online, marketplace
- Preferred timescale for the enquiry
- Repeat or one-off buying requirement
- Delivery or fulfilment details to be confirmed per enquiry
Delivery and fulfilment specifics are confirmed per enquiry. No delivery promises or guaranteed timelines are represented on this website.
Useful points to know before making an enquiry
Availability is Subject to Confirmation
Novique does not publish live stock levels or guarantee product availability in advance. Availability is discussed and confirmed as part of each supply conversation.
No Fixed Product Catalogue
There is no fixed wholesale catalogue available for browsing. Supply enquiries are buyer-led and product options are discussed per brief.
B2B Enquiries Only
Novique Fashion Ltd supports wholesale enquiries from retail businesses, boutiques, online sellers, resellers and commercial trade buyers. Consumer enquiries are not handled.
Supply Terms Per Enquiry
Pricing, quantities, payment terms and fulfilment arrangements are discussed and agreed per enquiry. No fixed pricing or minimum order quantities are published.
One-Off and Repeat Buying
Both one-off and repeat wholesale buying requirements are welcomed. Seasonal or ongoing supply plans can be discussed as part of the buyer process.
Clothing and Footwear
Novique supports enquiries covering clothing, footwear or a combined brief. There is no requirement to separate your clothing and footwear requirements into separate enquiries.
