How it works

1Tell us what you go through in a month, or send last quarter’s invoices for any of the three categories.
2We price each line against what you pay today and send the numbers back the same day.
3Each factory ships to you direct on its own invoice. You deal with one person, Nick, for all three.
No contract, no minimum across lines. Floor Chem ships by the pallet, Bella Bagno by the case, machines one at a time.
