A Partnership

We sell to dealers.
Never compete with them.

Since 1963, Lithco has been a master distributor serving the dealer network exclusively. One source for graphic arts and imaging supplies, accessories and equipment — from a company that does not compete with its dealer partners.

Our job is to help you sell more and spend less doing it: broad inventory, dealer programs and services that cut operating costs, freight and administrative time.

Wholesale only. Lithco sells to businesses that resell our products to their own customers. We do not sell to companies buying supplies for their own use.

Large enough for the capabilities. Small enough for the flexibilities.

Who qualifies as a dealer

A Lithco dealer account is a wholesale, buy-for-resale account. To open one, your business needs to meet all four of the following:

  • You resell. Graphic arts, imaging or related supplies and equipment are sold on to your own customers as a regular part of your business.
  • You're an established business. Registered business name, a business address and phone, and a federal tax ID (EIN) or the equivalent outside the U.S.
  • You can document resale status. A valid resale or sales tax exemption certificate for every state you take delivery in — or the equivalent documentation for Canada and Mexico.
  • You buy for inventory, not consumption. Product purchased from Lithco is for resale, not for use in your own production.

Buying for your own shop? If you're a printer, sign shop, in-plant or design studio using these products in your own work, we're not able to sell to you directly — that's the promise we make to our dealers. Get in touch and we'll put you in contact with a Lithco dealer near you.
