Wholesale Readiness Small-scale operation (0-1 employee) suggests capacity for select wholesale partnerships with boutique retailers and museum shops. Consider offering a dropship or white label program to reduce fulfillment burden and enable rapid onboarding for partners. Prepare a simple wholesale catalog, pricing, MOQs, and sample pack to accelerate discussions.
