Scale through Cadena Ehlis is the leading wholesale distributor with a logistics center near Barcelona and five cash&carry centers across major regions, presenting a strong opportunity to upsell distribution services, cross-regional product lines, and faster replenishment for prospective clients in multiple markets.

Independent Network As manager of Cadena 88, a buying group of 1,350 independent ferreterías, Ehlis enables collective purchasing and services, creating a sales opening for suppliers to access a broad, consolidated customer base with streamlined onboarding and centralized procurement potential.

Tech-Driven Ops With a technologically advanced logistics center and digital foundations ( Drupal stack, Analytics, multi-site hosting), there is an opportunity to offer integrated e-procurement, real-time stock visibility, and data-driven merchandising solutions to improve stock turns for retailers.

Market Reach Multiple strategic locations and cash&carry formats cover Spain’s key regions (Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Mallorca, Tenerife), enabling targeted sales campaigns, localized promotions, and partner programs to capture regional hardware, plumbing, heating, and DIY demand.

Financial Thresholds Current revenue range suggests mid-market scale with growth potential; engaging Ehlis for tiered supplier programs, exclusive SKUs, and volume-based incentives could drive higher ASP and expanded product categories into Cadena 88 members.
