Distribution and Dealer Network Policy
The competitiveness of our brands is based on the loyal support of our dealers, upon whom we rely for knowledgeable customer service and aggressive promotion of our products. This strategy cannot succeed if dealers pursue individual strategies that detract from TZMO’s brand integrity, and its family of brands, including SENI (hereinafter: TZMO’s family of brands).
This Policy is a unilateral statement of our intent. It is not an agreement or an offer to enter into an agreement but a description of terms under which:
- We will sell our products to TZMO’s authorized Distributors (hereinafter Distributors),
- TZMO products are being sold by authorized Dealers (hereinafter Dealers).
We do not ask for and will not accept any changes to this Policy.
This Policy applies to all means of resale, including but not limited to sales through “brick-and-mortar” outlets, telephone, mail order, and any means of electronic commerce. This policy also applies to indirect sales through any third party reseller.
You acknowledge that TZMO brand merchandise is distributed and sold using authorized dealers, and generally only in “authorized” channels.
The sale of TZMO brand merchandise through unauthorized dealers and/or in unauthorized channels/markets, such as e-commerce marketplace platforms, may cause irreparable damage to the reputation of the TZMO brands in our core markets around the world, and damage TZMO’s relationship with its authorized Distributors and/or retailers who invest in the “TZMO” brand.
On the basis of cooperation with experts, TZMO has developed the Distribution and Dealer Network Program (hereinafter referred to as “the Program”) under which all the necessary documents, agreements and policies are implemented and applied. Within “the Program”, TZMO works only with the authorized Dealers and Distributors and provides its products thereto. Details are stipulated in the separate agreements and all of the rights and obligations are stated in the terms and conditions of “the Program”.
It is each Dealer’s right to determine the manner in which it conducts its business. It is TZMO’s right to do business with whomever it chooses.
For those who intend to sell TZMO products online, written authorization is required by TZMO USA, Inc. to be able to sell online and to be considered an authorized Online Dealer. Applicable documents can be obtained by emailing TZMO Compliance Department at compliance@tzmousa.com. A request for documents does not guarantee dealer approval.
