Wholesale shopping & vendor collaboration tools for retail buyers

FurnishNearMe makes it easier for furniture retailers to shop across multiple vendors in one place, view detailed product information, and collaborate with team members and manufacturer reps. This tool is designed specifically to support wholesale shopping between retailers and manufacturers—not for consumer use. (Consumer-to-retailer shopping tools are covered in a separate section.)


Browse products from your vendors- and discover new ones

  • Explore a centralized catalog of products from manufacturers you already do business with.

  • If allowed by the manufacturer, you can also browse products from brands you don’t currently carry- helping you explore new vendor opportunities.

  • Each product listing includes helpful details like images, groupings, specifications, dimensions, and more.


Wholesale pricing and warehouse inventory

  • When manufacturers choose to provide it, you can view wholesale pricing and warehouse stock levels directly within the platform.

  • Real-time product availability can help you make faster and more informed buying decisions.

  • Pricing is visible only to authorized retail buyers—not consumers.


Search and filter with precision

  • Quickly find the products you need using advanced filters and keyword search.

  • Filter by brand, category, style, finish, size, and many other attributes.

  • This makes it easy to find products that fit your store’s merchandising needs.


Use on the sales floor for quick lookups

  • In-store salespeople can use this tool to assist customers with real-time pricing and availability information from the manufacturer.

  • Extend your selling power by showing options that aren’t currently in stock, but are available to order.

  • Reduces the need to flip through printed price lists or log into multiple vendor portals.


Organize with lists

  • Create custom product Lists to stay organized as you shop:

    • Plan assortments for upcoming buys

    • Prepare for floor resets

    • Save items tied to specific themes or promotions

  • Add products from multiple vendors to a single list for side-by-side consideration.

  • Lists can be edited, sorted, and tagged for easy reference.


Collaborate with your team and reps

  • Share Lists with your internal team to work together on purchasing decisions.

  • Invite manufacturer sales reps to view your lists, suggest alternatives, or answer product questions.

  • Each list includes a built-in chat window, so you can collaborate in one place without email threads or external messaging apps.


What makes this tool great

  • Instead of juggling multiple vendor portals or managing spreadsheets manually, you get a centralized shopping experience across many of your brands.

  • It streamlines wholesale shopping and supports better communication between your store and your manufacturers.

  • The collaboration tools help improve alignment with your internal team and strengthen relationships with your reps.
