how the Crate & Barrel Trade Program works
The Crate & Barrel Trade Program is designed to make sourcing pieces for your commercial projects as smooth as possible. When you join, you gain access to exclusive sneak peeks at new collections and a 20% professional discount across Crate & Barrel, CB2 and Crate & Kids. And there is no minimum order! But the real value lies in the personalized service. A concierge team provides expert guidance, from product selection to white-glove delivery and installation. This means I can focus on the creative aspects of my commercial projects, knowing the logistics are handled with precision.
meeting commercial demands
When curating furniture for commercial spaces, durability is just as important as aesthetics. You want pieces that can withstand high traffic and frequent use. That’s why I appreciate Crate & Barrel’s commitment to quality. Many of their furniture designs are BIFMA Compliant®, meaning they underwent rigorous testing to ensure durability, safe use in commercial settings and the ability to withstand high usage over time. I can’t stress how important this peace of mind is for both myself and my clients.
Sustainability is also deeply important as my clients are increasingly eco-conscious. Crate & Barrel’s commitment to FSC®-certified wood means their pieces are made from sustainable wood from forests certified to be responsibly managed, environmentally sound and socially beneficial.
customization makes it unique
One of the most significant advantages of the Crate & Barrel Trade Program is the ability to customize hundreds of beds, sofas and chairs with top-quality fabrics. This is particularly crucial for commercial spaces, where the guest experience must perfectly reflect a brand’s unique identity or desired atmosphere. Whether it's crafting a bar that exudes luxury or designing hotel guest rooms in a brand’s color palette, the flexibility to customize proportions and select performance fabrics that can withstand heavy use is invaluable. This level of personalization helps me set a space’s energy and makes a lasting impression.
why the Crate & Barrel Trade Program stands out
What truly sets the Crate & Barrel Trade Program apart is its comprehensive approach. It’s not just about the professional discount; it’s about partnership. The combination of access to multiple brands, dedicated service and a commitment to quality and sustainability allows me to create commercial spaces that are not only visually stunning but also functional, ultimately enhancing my clients’ experiences.
