FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

We’ve gathered common questions from the brands we partner with. Have a different question? Let’s connect.

How do you manage retail access?

We operate as a closed distribution network. Only verified, brick-and-mortar retailers are approved to purchase—protecting your pricing structure, channel integrity, and in-store presentation.

Do you work directly with brands?

Yes. Retail Stride partners with brand owners and authorized distributors to ensure every product is authentic, MAP-compliant, and represented responsibly across all retail channels.

How do you ensure pricing compliance?

Every SKU in our catalog follows strict MAP and authorized-sourcing standards. We maintain clear communication and purchasing controls with our retail partners to uphold brand pricing policies and consistency.

Are you a marketplace or a distributor?

Retail Stride is a modern distributor, not an open marketplace. We don’t list products publicly or allow unverified sellers—ensuring total control over how your brand is represented.

What support do you provide for new brand partners?

We make onboarding seamless—our team handles the setup, data organization, and catalog integration so your products are presented accurately and quickly to qualified retailers.

Is there a cost to partner with Retail Stride?

No. There are no fees, subscriptions, or commissions for brands or retailers. Retail Stride operates as a modern distributor—purchasing inventory directly under authorized terms and supplying it to verified retail partners through controlled, compliant channels.
