Vileda is one of the best-known names in household cleaning products, with products manufactured by the Freudenberg Group and sold internationally.
p Handels GmbH works with Vileda under licence and is now looking to significantly expand the range through physical retailers across the UK.
Current UK distribution for this range is limited, with Lidl and Aldi among the existing physical retail accounts and products also available online through Amazon. This leaves a substantial number of major retail groups and buying organisations still open.
p already works successfully with independent sales agents in Europe and sees the same model as an effective way to build its UK retail presence. The company has set a realistic six-month timeframe to establish wider distribution and is actively seeking to recruit sales agents across the UK.

The Vileda name is already familiar to millions of consumers and covers practical household products designed for everyday cleaning, organisation and home care.
The licensed range being developed by p includes products across areas such as kitchen and sink organisation, waste management, storage and laundry care, giving retailers the opportunity to offer practical household products backed by an established consumer brand.
The opportunity in the UK is straightforward: take a recognised international brand that currently has limited physical retail distribution and introduce the range to suitable retail groups across the country.
Earn 10% commission on both initial and repeat orders, with the potential for an additional 3% bonus on large orders. With a £1,000 minimum order value, even the smallest qualifying order generates £100 commission at the standard rate.
There are no existing accounts to inherit and very few retained accounts. Lidl, Aldi and Amazon online sellers are excluded, but the wider UK retail market remains open, creating genuine scope to build a valuable portfolio of accounts.
The company is looking for a small number of agents to provide coverage across the whole of the UK. Exclusive territories will be available, giving successful agents the opportunity to develop their own region rather than competing with multiple representatives for the same customers.
Agents will receive sales presentation packs, product training where required and a formal agency agreement. The company understands that gaining listings with major retailers takes time and has allowed an initial six-month period to establish the range in the UK.
The primary target market is established physical retailers with the scale and customer base to stock consumer household products.
Potential customers include:
The strongest opportunities are likely to come from retailers where household cleaning, kitchen, laundry, storage or home organisation products are already established categories.
This opportunity is particularly suited to experienced independent sales agents with existing relationships with retail buyers.
You may already represent complementary household, homeware, kitchen, cleaning, FMCG or consumer product brands and be looking for a recognised name to add to your portfolio.
The ideal agent will:
If you already have access to major UK retail buyers, this is an opportunity to introduce a recognised international household brand into accounts where the range is not currently represented and earn commission on both the initial listing and the repeat business that follows.
