I know this is not the right place to ask, but i have ask some vendors in lowyat but they do not reply, ofcourse they wont tell...

so i need to know where can i get suppliers that's reliable and sells cheapest bodybuilding supplements...

I think you can send emails to the supplement manufacturers such as ON, Gaspari, Dymatize, etc to ask whether they can direct you to their marketing department for the details or local distributor (if any).

As a buyer point of view, of course I hope that you can bring in more choices of product range and cheaper price.

That is wat i can think of.

if u can bring in stuff like clothing, accessories,shaker bottles etc at a cheaper rate then i think maybe theres a market for that..

supplement seems to be saturated..unless u can offer low prices

I think as far as customers are concern, price is the most important thing
considering got many supplement sellers (in LYN alone, not include blog,fb,website and normal shop out there), it wont be easy to compete

but honestly, I dont think market have saturated yet

Have you checked the Food Market section?

I'm talking about sports nutrition/supplement in msia in general
as you notice most of the "big gun" here like eji, bodybuildingasian, ego, muscleup...blabalblabla always out of stock
which mean that the demand is good and exceed supply
therefore, there's room for another seller...as long as price is competitive

Yeah, most of the time cheap suppliers are out of stocks. If you can supply cheap whey protein, I can be your 1st customer.

Me and my wife are having protein shake every morning, consider it as my staple food

ptcliff has great pricing and has a decent stock

try to get wholesale price from 4Rings... buy in bulk from him

for starting things i suggest you to pre-order your products from ejinutrition. he is taking pre orders now with good prices.

im also interested in supplement business btw. of course not here but my home country.

what is a decent budget to start this business? what stock to buy and how much stock needed to keep per supps?

Not sure about the budget, try to bring in popular products, you can't go wrong with ON whey, myofusion, syntha-6, xtend and some pre-workouts, also some accessories as well.

what is the point if u're getting supplies from local suppliers when all stock comes from oversea? if u can, LCL bulk shipment from US. much much cheaper. but of course u need a bigger initial capital and working capital.

If u dont have basic in business, i think it quite hard for u to compete. Anyway, dont give up. Learn more bro. Maybe u can learn or get a kickstart from other seller here.
