Calling on the PH collective to give some advice or contacts on how I would go about finding buyers in a related market for say 30,000 items. Is it just a case of just calling them up or would distribution companies find clients for you?

I think the PH collective will need a bit more information to go on.

I reckon you need to approach high street chains, and pdq. Dillons ran out the other day. You'll need to call their head office, find which buyer to talk to, and see if he's interested. Same goes for any other retail chains which sell them. I expect you'll need some luck but if you don't try you won't find out. The worst they can say is 'no'.
Welcome to the world of cold calling!

Or alternatively, if you know anyone who works in telesales get them to take a few days off and hit the phones for you.

There are a whole host of markets for them, just have to find someone who wants em PDQ.

Good luck :P
