Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Carry a wide selection of hammock stands


In today's market, customers who wish to own a hammock don't have to rely on conveniently placed trees to hold up their hammocks. You can provide them with a diverse line of hammock stands.

I recommend: Purchase a sturdy steel hammock stand from BJ's Wholesale Club, Inc. Corrugated Plas-Tech Inc., carries a hammock stand that is coated with a durable finish that will protect this product from the elements, including sea air.

Include hammock chair stands in your inventory to increase sales


Hammock chairs provide the same relaxation that a regular hammock affords, except the consumer sits upright. These hammock chairs are made specially to support the weight of the person in the chair. Heavy-duty chair stands can usually hold up to 350 pounds.

I recommend: Bliss sells a C-Frame hammock chair stand with an enamel finish that will resist the weather. Also, look at chair stands offered by Hammocks.com, which offers volume pricing for businesses, so request a free quote for the products in which you are interested.

Obtain dealer or wholesale pricing on hammock stands for your business


Many hammock and hammock stand manufacturers offer their products at wholesale prices for dealers like you. Often, you will need to fill out an application to either receive the discount or become a dealer for the company's products.

I recommend: The Outback Chair Company, Inc., offers a nice selection of hammock stands and hammock chair stands in addition to the opportunity to become an Outback Chair Company dealer. VIFAH Wholesale offers a triple arc design hammock stand that surpasses many other hammocks in stability. You can receive a large discount when you apply for a wholesale trade discount with the company.
