Factories producing Tiffany Marble often report that up to 80% of their business is realized from repeat business from their satisfied customers. It is very common for factories producing Tiffany Marble to keep their contractor customers for many years since they are producing the finest quality of marble, onyx and granite in the industry.
If a manufacturer wholesales standard modular size sinks to stores, he will often use the cost of material, or material plus labor cost, and multiply by four to arrive at the wholesale price. A sink costing $15.00 to produce will often wholesale to a building supply store, lumber company or plumbing supply account for $60.00. A 300% profit at wholesale! And custom sizes offer an even greater profit. It is not uncommon to enjoy a 5 to 10 times mark up when you wholesale custom sizes including custom two tone sinks with fashionable inlays. We feature custom products. Companies like Koehler or American Standard only sell standard sizes! And they produce ordinary ceramic and porcelain sinks, not elegant Tiffany marble, Tiff-Onyx or Tiffany granite.
