Document background
The Wholesale Supplier Agreement is a fundamental commercial contract used to establish and govern the relationship between suppliers/manufacturers and wholesale purchasers in Canada. This agreement is essential when parties enter into ongoing bulk supply arrangements and requires careful consideration of both federal and provincial laws. The document typically includes detailed provisions for ordering procedures, pricing mechanisms, quality standards, delivery terms, and risk allocation. A well-structured Wholesale Supplier Agreement helps prevent disputes by clearly defining parties' rights and obligations, while ensuring compliance with Canadian commercial law, including the Sale of Goods Act, Competition Act, and industry-specific regulations. It's particularly important for businesses engaging in regular, high-volume transactions where consistent supply and quality standards are crucial.
