Retail Trade FAQs

What is 3M Select - Retail Trade?

It's an e-commerce site that allows easy access for qualifying dealers to our ranges of retail ranges and retail display products. You're buying direct from 3M, with no need to apply for a credit account.


Why should I use it?

If you're a retailer, 3M have many custom retail and retail-packaged lines which are generally not available in the regular wholesale channel. We were asked by dealers to make these products available in an easily accessible way, hence a web store where you can help yourself from a range of products at best trade pricing You can also buy in smaller, more retail-friendly quantities rather than needing to buy in large case quantities. And its the ONLY way you can get hold of some of our latest products or clearance deals.


How does it work?

Only approved dealers will be given access to the site, so they can then buy at competitive trade pricing and choose certain lines in retail-ready packaging. We aim to extend the range over the next few months and include exclusive clearance offers and special offers when available. The products listed are generally not available through the regular wholesale channel.


How do I pay and receive my order?

Payment is by credit card, so there's no need to go through the process of opening a credit account with 3M. Place your order by adding products to the shopping basket, then checking out. We typically ship orders placed by 1pm that same day - so 2 days is usually the longest you'll need to wait.
