Running a hotel, B&B, holiday let or Airbnb means buying the same toiletries and household consumables again and again — soap, toothpaste, shower gel, cleaning supplies and air care that guests notice when they're right and complain about when they're wrong. Northern Marketing supplies bulk toiletries for hotels and short-stay accommodation across the UK, from a 40,000 sq ft warehouse in Nelson, Lancashire, with a low £250 + VAT minimum order so you can buy exactly what a changeover needs without over-committing.
We've supplied the independent trade since 2009 and hold a 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating. For hospitality buyers that means one account for guest amenities, bathroom consumables and back-of-house cleaning — ordered when you need them and delivered on our own fleet. Whether you run a single holiday cottage, a portfolio of Airbnb lets or a full hotel, you buy from one place, in the quantities that suit your occupancy, without the four-figure minimums the larger distributors demand.
Travel-size and guest-amenity toiletries
Guest bathrooms run on small formats. Our range includes compact, amenity-suitable lines such as DentalOne 100ml toothpaste & toothbrush packs for the forgotten-toothbrush moment, individually wrapped cream soap bars, shampoo bars, and 300ml shower gels sized for shared bathrooms and changeovers. Small, self-contained formats present better in a guest bathroom than a part-used family bottle, and they control cost per room because nothing is over-dispensed. Buying by the case keeps your per-room cost low and your storeroom stocked for the next booking. Browse the full wholesale toiletries range to build a guest amenity list that fits your property, from budget short-stay lets to higher-end rooms where presentation matters most.
Housekeeping and cleaning consumables
Turnaround days live and die on cleaning stock. We carry surface and glass cleaning wipes in bulk packs, multi-purpose disinfectant sprays that kill 99.9% of bacteria, kitchen degreasers, and laundry additives for the towels and linen that get washed after every stay. For self-catering properties, the kitchen matters as much as the bathroom: washing-up products, surface sprays and bin consumables all sit in the same range. Stocking these alongside your toiletries means one delivery, one invoice, and no mid-week dash to a cash-and-carry when the cupboard runs dry between bookings.
Air care that makes the first impression
The first thing a guest notices is how a room smells. Our own-brand air fresheners and refills let you keep every room consistently fresh at a fraction of branded prices — useful when you're scenting a whole property rather than a single home. A neutral, clean fragrance across rooms reads as "professionally cleaned" and costs pennies per application.
Repackaging and custom labelling for branded amenities
If you want guest amenities that carry your property's name, our in-house repackaging, custom labelling and private-label service can produce branded soaps, bottles and bathroom consumables to order. It's the same service our retail customers use for own-brand ranges, applied to hospitality amenities — a low-cost way to lift the perceived quality of a room without a bespoke manufacturing run.
Order once, reorder in minutes
Hospitality buying is repetitive by nature, and our trade account is built for it. Open an account once and your past orders are on record, so restocking the same changeover list takes minutes rather than a fresh search each time. Orders over £750 + VAT ship free on our own fleet; smaller orders start from the £250 + VAT minimum. See delivery information for coverage and timings.
New to buying wholesale? Our guide on wholesale toiletries walks through formats, case sizes and what to stock, and the £250 minimum order page explains how low-commitment trade buying works.
Why hospitality buyers choose Northern Marketing
Independent hosts and small hotel groups don't fit the model of the big contract distributors, whose minimums and rigid ordering suit large chains. We're built for the independent trade: a £250 + VAT minimum instead of four-figure commitments, 600+ lines held in our own Nelson warehouse, and delivery on our own fleet rather than a third-party courier. That combination means you can order a realistic changeover quantity, get it reliably, and keep your working capital in the business rather than tied up in a stockroom. A 4.9/5 Trustpilot rating and 15 years supplying the trade back it up.
