Homayla Trade, wholesale and distribution

Premium boucle sofas, shipped flat in a box.

Homayla is opening its wholesale channel. Sofas and armchairs compressed into a carton, so a container carries far more units and your landed cost per piece stays low.

Shipped flat
Every sofa and armchair is compressed into a carton. Less space in your warehouse, a simpler last mile.

Produced and held at our partner factory in China. We ship to your port, not from a European warehouse.

15 to 20 days
Sea freight to Jebel Ali. 20 to 28 days to Dammam, about 50 days to Europe.
Range
Up to 9 colourways
Boucle and corduroy on the current Cloudy and Luneo Bubble lines.
Why carry Homayla

Easy to import. Easy to sell.

Most premium sofa brands are heavy to move and slow to deliver. Homayla was built the other way round, because the product travels compressed and the factory is our direct partner, not a broker.

01

Volume economics

A compressed carton fits many more units in the same container than an assembled sofa. That is what makes a thin margin per unit work at volume, and it is the whole point of this programme.

02

Price parity, protected

The recommended retail price is the same everywhere, online and on your floor. The official site will not undercut you, and that rule is written into the agreement.

03

A marketing kit on day one

Photography, video, social assets and product data. You communicate from the first week without producing anything yourself.

04

Premium look, mid market price

Boucle, corduroy and contemporary volumes, priced well under the luxury names and well above entry level. It converts on a showroom floor.

The product argument

A sofa sells when someone sits on it.

Three ways in

Pick the door that fits you.

Distributor, retailer or trade professional. Same brand, same public price, three different levels of commitment.

01

Distributor

Importers, wholesalers, national distributors

You buy by pallet or by full container, you import, you hold the stock and you supply your market. This is the route we prioritise for the Gulf, where a container reaches Jebel Ali in 15 to 20 days.

  • Territory agreed market by market
  • Best landed cost per unit
  • Container programme, sea or rail
  • Full product data and marketing assets
Entry at pallet level, target a 40ft container
Apply as a distributor
02

Retailer

Furniture stores, concept stores, showrooms

You display, you sell, and you decide how much stock you want to carry. Three formats, from zero risk to full margin, and you can move from one to the next.

  • Showroom and direct shipping, no stock on your side
  • Consignment, we place the pieces, you sell them
  • Outright purchase, best margin, stock on your side
  • Display set financed or placed, case by case
Entry at one display set plus a first reassort
Apply as a retailer
03

Trade and contract

Interior designers, decorators, home stagers, hospitality

A professional discount on your client projects, with no volume commitment. It works for a single apartment, a staging job or a full residence.

  • Project by project pricing
  • No minimum order
  • Fabric samples on request
  • Delivery to the project address
No minimum, account reviewed on your portfolio

How the goods move

From the factory to your floor.

There is no European warehouse in the middle. Goods are produced and held at our partner factory in China and shipped to your port. That is why the Gulf is faster to serve than Europe, and why the transit figures below read the way they do.

01

Production

The factory is our direct partner, not a trading company. Production and finishing happen there, on the colourways you order.

02

Compression

Each piece is compressed and cartoned, then your order is consolidated into pallets or a full container.

03

Sea or rail

Sea freight by default. Rail to Europe is available when speed matters more than cost.

04

Clearance and delivery

In the standard programme you import and clear locally. Landed arrangements are possible and discussed case by case.

Route
Sea transit
What it means
China to Jebel Ali, Dubai
15 to 20 days
Our fastest route. Jebel Ali also transships to Saudi Arabia and the wider Gulf.
China to Dammam, Saudi Arabia
20 to 28 days
Routing through Jebel Ali often saves 5 to 10 days compared with a direct call.
China to Europe
About 50 days
Rail is an option at roughly 18 to 25 days when the calendar matters more than the freight cost.
China to the UK and Australia
On quotation
Confirmed with the forwarder at the time of the order, since schedules move.
Markets

Where we open, and in what order.

The order below follows how easy each market is to enter, not how much we want it. Duty and tax figures were checked in August 2026 and should be confirmed by your own broker before you commit.

Market
Duty and tax
What it means
01
United Arab Emirates
Priority
5 percent duty on CIF, 5 percent VAT
The simplest of the five. No furniture specific certification, and Jebel Ali sits 15 to 20 days from the factory.
02
Saudi Arabia
Priority, with a local partner
5 to 12 percent duty on CIF, 15 percent VAT
SABER and SASO certification is mandatory on regulated goods, and upholstered furniture falls under fire safety rules. Best entered with a registered local importer.
03
Europe, France, Switzerland, Belgium
Home market
Local rates, Swiss VAT 8.1 percent
The brand's base, in Geneva. Sea freight runs about 50 days, so we plan volume with partners instead of promising short lead times.
04
United Kingdom
Open
Low duty, 20 percent VAT
Light customs and a shared language, a natural market to open alongside the Gulf.
05
Australia
Open
Light duty, 10 percent GST
Reachable directly from the factory, best served by a distributor holding local stock.
06
United States
Later
Anti dumping and Section 301 on Chinese upholstered furniture
The heaviest market to land. We say so plainly rather than sell you a landed cost we cannot hold.

Checked on 18 August 2026 against the GCC common external tariff, UAE VAT rules, Saudi customs and SABER requirements, and published sea freight schedules from China. Figures are indicative and must be confirmed by a freight forwarder before any commitment.

One public price. Everywhere.

This is the part most direct to consumer brands get wrong when they open a wholesale channel. If the official site can undercut you with a promotion, your margin is never safe and the partnership dies within a season. So we fixed the rule before opening the channel, not after.

  • The recommended retail price is identical online and in store
  • No aggressive online promotion is run against the network
  • Price parity is written into the partner agreement
  • Territory and channel are agreed before the first order

Trade questions

Straight answers, before the call.

It depends on the door you come through. There is no minimum for a trade professional working project by project. A retailer starts with a display set and a first reassort. A distributor starts at pallet level and moves up to full containers.

We do not publish net prices. The discount grows with the account level, from a first order through to a container programme. You receive the full price list after a first call, once we know your format, your market and your volume.

Sea freight from the factory runs 15 to 20 days to Jebel Ali, 20 to 28 days to Dammam and about 50 days to Europe. Rail to Europe is roughly 18 to 25 days when speed matters. The exact schedule is confirmed with the forwarder when the order is placed.

Not today. Goods are produced and held at the factory, with no buffer stock elsewhere. For partners committing to volume we pre position stock in market, and that is precisely the kind of programme we want to build first.

In the standard distributor programme you import and clear. Landed arrangements are possible case by case. Certification differs sharply between markets, and Saudi Arabia in particular requires SABER and SASO on upholstered furniture, which is why we recommend entering it with a registered local importer.

Homayla sells direct in Europe through homayla.com, at the recommended retail price. Territory and channel are agreed before the first order, and price parity applies on both sides of the agreement.

The factory is our direct partner, so colourway and format requests are possible on volume. Raise it on the first call and we will tell you honestly what is feasible and what is not.
