Keeping on top of all the latest suppliers and terms can be time-consuming and complicated.

Bira Direct Plus - the new ordering platform from Bira Direct offers complete visibility of live pricing and stock levels and allows retailers to place orders straight from their devices. Other features include creating shopping lists for regular orders, adding products to open baskets when you need it or saving order history so you can repeat orders or access your favourite SKUs.
Bira Direct Plus is available for download on phones, tablets or browsers.
Invoicing made easy
Access all your statements and invoices online through Bira Direct Invoice Manager, available to all Bira members. Invoice Manager provides you with an easy-to-use tool for accessing your business invoices. As we process your invoices, Invoice Manager will be automatically updated, so there is no need to wait for the post.
Dropshipping allows customers to purchase stock from a retailer and have it sent to them directly by the supplier. Dropshipping benefits include pay only as you sell, helping you to keep costs down whilst maximising your sales.
This way, you can reduce the risk of stocking high-ticket items.
Bira Direct is a buying group with independent retailers in mind. We invest our profits back into Bira, ensuring the money you spend with Bira Direct goes back into supporting independent retailers like you.
