Interior designers thrive when they’re free to create. The vision boards, mood palettes, and curated furnishings they bring to life reflect their passion and precision. But what often gets buried is the behind-the-scenes slog—sourcing products, negotiating quotes, chasing vendor responses, and tracking deliveries.
Enter Coco to the Trade: your silent purchasing powerhouse. We offer streamlined access to over 200 trade-only vendors, through a single intuitive account. Here’s how we make procurement effortless for designers—from account creation to final delivery.
Step 1: Setting Up Your Account
Instead of juggling dozens of vendor registrations, designers simply apply to join! Instantly, you can tap into our curated vendor ecosystem—no waiting, no admin, no hassle.
Step 2: Explore & Source Vendors
With your account live, unlock our full Vendor List—a beautifully organized and ever-expanding directory of trade-only partners. It’s your insider’s Rolodex of:
- Top-tier furniture brands—from crafted case goods to bold statement pieces.
- Designer-grade lighting—pendants, sconces, and fixtures that elevate any room.
- Premium textiles & upholstery—exclusive fabrics and trims.
- Elegant accessories & accents—the finishing flourishes that make spaces memorable.
This expansive list is exactly what sets Coco apart. Many of these vendors don’t sell direct to the public or independent studios—so your designs remain fresh, exclusive, and competitive.
Plus, you’ll never juggle multiple logins or rejections ever again. Coco acts as the single point of contact, keeping your sourcing experience smooth and organized.
Step 3: Place Orders Through Coco
When you’re ready to bring selections from your Vendor List to life, everything flows through one smart system:
- Accurate procurement—we verify specs, styles, and SKUs before the order ships.
- Consolidated invoicing—one bill, not dozens.
- Time saved—no more chasing vendors or managing disparate orders.
Think of Coco as your in-studio purchasing team—only with less overhead and more efficiency.
Step 4: Project Delivery Made Easy
Once orders are placed, we manage the heavy lifting:
- Delivery coordination—We oversee schedules and logistics to keep you informed of expected shipping dates.
- Issue resolution—from shipping delays to claim forms, we handle it all.
By handling every logistical nuance, Coco allows you to focus on what matters: designing, refining, and delivering exceptional client experiences.
