How to Join the Barkridges® Exclusive Partner Program: Wholesale Opportunities for UK Pet Boutiques

A sleek, minimalist map of the United Kingdom featuring 20 gold markers. 16 markers identify major regional city hubs from Belfast to Sheffield, while 4 markers are clustered in London's hubs. The text overlay reads: '1 British Brand. 16 cities & 4 London hubs. Now Appointing Partners.

At Barkridges®, we’ve always believed that the perfect walk is a blend of precision engineering and effortless style. From our TruFit Freedom harnesses to our Home Compostable cornstarch poop bags, our mission is to provide gear that respects a dog's anatomy and the planet’s future.


As we move through 2026, we are ready to take the next step. We aren't looking to be in every shop—we are looking for the right partners.


Our Vision: The "One City, One Partner" Promise

We are officially launching the Barkridges® Exclusive Partner Program. To maintain the exclusivity and premium nature of our brand, we have mapped out 16 key cities across the UK and 4 London hubs. We will be appointing only one exclusive partner per city or hub.


When you become a Barkridges® stockist, you aren't just a retailer; you own your city or territory. We will drive our local customers to your door, and we will never "crowd" your shop with a competitor down the street.

What We Look For in a Partner

Barkridges® is more than just a product on a shelf; it’s a commitment to "Harness the Happiness." Because we offer full territory exclusivity, we seek partners who are as invested in the brand as we are.


Our partnership criteria include:

  • Active Representation: We prioritise "Active Stockists" who maintain a comprehensive, "always-in-stock" presence of our core range (sizes XS through XL).

  • Seasonal Commitment: Exclusivity is maintained through consistent investment. This ensures your boutique is always the first to showcase our latest innovation and colour drops.

  • Brand Alignment: We look for boutiques with beautiful physical spaces that prioritise living the best life with their pet, pet health, owner education, and premium aesthetic.


How to Apply

We are reviewing applications on a first-come, first-served basis for the remaining 2026 slots. To apply to become the exclusive home of Barkridges® in your city or hub, please send us a message using the Contact Us form on the website with the following details:


  1. Shop Name and Full Postcode.

  2. A brief description of your shop’s "vibe" and other brands you stock.

  3. Your Instagram handle or website URL.


Once received, our team will review your location against our current map and, if successful, send over our full Trade Pack and Terms.


Join the pack. Let’s harness the happiness, together.
