Authorized product information direct from manufacturers

IDEA is a conduit for product information directly from manufacturers to the wholesale industry. We have licensing agreements with our manufacturers authorizing us to redistribute the product data to wholesalers. This ensures that IDEA’s product data is pure and provided as manufacturers intended.

Because of this, distributors can trust that this information is coming directly from their authorized manufacturers, mitigating risk and liability from unauthorized data. IDEA is unique in its mission to protect and maintain the integrity of manufacturers’ provided data as it is transferred to authorized distributors.
