Connecting Your Products with retail

The IND!E Model

At IND!E, we’ve built a single-source solution that simplifies how retailers access relevant, innovative products while empowering SME brands to scale and thrive. Our distribution model acts as both a brand incubator and a seamless distribution channel, enabling retailers to source exceptional products effortlessly and, when ready, transition those brands into direct relationships.

We also provide retailers with a unique opportunity to test and trial brands they’re interested in working with through IND!E, before deciding to take them on directly. This allows retailers to minimise risk while still exploring new, exciting product opportunities.

What is it?

The IND!E distribution model connects SME brands with major retailers by integrating them into established physical and online retail spaces, including platforms like Ocado. Acting as a distributor, we manage everything from sourcing to compliance and logistics, providing retailers with a seamless, scalable solution for offering unique products.

For brands, it’s an unparalleled opportunity to showcase products, gain retail experience, and build credibility while benefiting from IND!E’s end-to-end support.

Why OUR MODEL STANDS OUT

  • End-to-End Distribution: From sourcing to delivery, we act as a seamless distributor for retailers.

  • Flexible Commercial Model: Our unique commercial structure benefits both brands and retailers— contact us to learn how it works.

  • Scalable Opportunities: Brands can grow their market presence while retailers can easily adopt new, innovative products.

join the IND!E SHOP ON OCADO

We’re curating a selection of standout, independent brands to sit on Ocado. This is an incredible opportunity to get into retail and get in front of Ocado’s vast and engaged customer base, giving your brand a presence on one of the UK’s leading online grocery platforms. 

Following a highly successful first selection round, we are going to be shortlisting brands for round 2 with Ocado at the end of March 2025 and we’d love to explore how your products could be part of this.
