Independent Pet Trade Sales Agent – Premium Pet Brands | UK & Ireland

Ideal Profile

We are looking for experienced, self-employed independent sales agents who already have an active B2B call cycle and established relationships with buyers in the pet, garden, outdoor or related specialist retail sectors.

The ideal agent will already represent complementary, non-competing product lines and will be able to demonstrate genuine buyer access and a track record of opening and developing retail accounts. Existing relationships and territory knowledge are more important to us than a conventional CV.

This opportunity is particularly suited to established multi-line agents who want to add a portfolio of premium international pet and dog lifestyle products to their existing customer offering without giving up their current non-competing brands.

IPW provides the commercial and operational support needed to help agents sell effectively, including product training, trade pricing, product information, marketing materials, samples or demonstration stock where appropriate, central quoting and account support, stock fulfilment and B2B ordering.

The commercial model is self-employed and non-exclusive, with an attractive commission structure, opportunities for recurring commission on eligible repeat business and additional incentives for developing new accounts. Territory protection may also be considered for agents who demonstrate strong performance and consistent account development.

We are looking for long-term commercial partners rather than short-term lead generators, and we particularly welcome agents who can show which retailers they currently call on, which complementary brands they represent and examples of new accounts they have successfully opened.
