Requirements for Distributorship:

Because of our special rates with the airlines it is required that we ship a minimum amount either consolidated in several large orders or as a single shipment to one customer. This allows us to bring you the very best live fish, live coral and premium live rock at the most economical prices available in the industry today. However, it is necessary to establish a minimum amount purchased per week to keep our rates from fluctuating with the airlines.

For new customers who wish to order for the first time we require a minimum amount of 70 boxes of premium live rock which is the equivalent of one LD3 shipping container containing approx. 3000 lbs.

If you wish to order corals and fish the required minimum purchase would be 25 boxes of these items which average 15 – 25 corals per box and fish varies greatly depending on species and size. In addition, live rock must be considered as part of your order but the amount can be reduced to approx. 30 – 40 boxes depending on the size of the live fish and coral order.

We ship for arrival into Los Angeles International Airport four times per week on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. After your relationship with our company has been established we could consider multiple weekly shipments to support your volume but only after demonstrating the required minimums for several shipments.

All new customers are required to place a bond in our bank account that would equal the estimated amount of your needs. Once the order has been shipped the amount of the invoice will be due within 7 days or before another order is dispatched and your bond will remain in place as a security deposit on all future orders.

We greatly value your business as well as that of our already established customers. Because of this, we are very careful not to compete against our loyal customers by shipping to their customers. I hope you understand our need to protect those that have supported us through the years and welcome you if you are considering distributing our products on the level we require. It is the only way we have to keep things fair and I am sure that you can appreciate this stand if you are a distributor yourself.

If you feel that you would like to distribute our products and agree with all of the above please feel free to contact us at  sales@waltsmith.com or phone 679-666-5045, fax 679-666-7106 or mail to:
PO Box 4466 Lautoka, Fiji islands South Pacific.  Welcome to our family.

If you feel that this is a little over you head at this time please email me and I will be happy to provide you with the names of the distributors whom I know will give you good service and price.

In any case thank you for you interest in our products and I hope to hear from you soon!

Kind Regards,

Walt Smith
