Independent Retailer Magazine just published a great article on Kole Imports, outlining our current wholesale strategy, which you can read on their website: http://independentretailer.com/2012/03/01/the-kole-difference/

Give it a read and see where we’ve been and where we’re headed in the next few years.

As Sam Cooke said in his 1963 hit, “It’s been a long, a long time coming, But I know a change is going to come, oh yes it will.”

Well, we are happy to say that here at Kole Imports, the change HAS come. While you may have known us in the past to be primarily Imports and furthermore, primarily Imports of .99 Items, we have definitely changed.

We are now at a point where over 35% of our product line is Closeouts and over 25% of our product line now has varied retail price points primarily at $10.00 retail and under.

We really urge you to see the change for yourself. Visit our Web site at www.koleimports.comand see the change for yourself or if you will be attending the ASD Show in Las Vegas, March 25^th – 28^th, stop by and visit our booth (35 booths, Booths SU1000-SU1118) and see how things have changed. We recognize that the business climate can be challenging and by changing our mix, we feel we can definitely help you with an amazing mix of products while still allowing you to make great profits as we work to continue to be……Your Profit Source.
