No contractor markup

The prices the trade pays.

Factory direct Verified manufacturers One margin, disclosed
How the model works

Every hand that touches
your order adds a price.

Nothing about a cabinet, a floor or a light fixture gets more expensive between the factory and your house. The path does. We removed the path.

The usual way

  • Factorybase cost
  • Importer+ markup
  • Distributor+ markup
  • Showroom or dealer+ markup
  • General contractor+ markup
  • Youfull retail

You never see the base cost. You see the last number in the chain, and you have no way to check it.

The ARAE way

  • Factorybase cost
  • ARAE, verified and warehousedone margin
  • Youdirect price

We hold one margin and we say so. You buy the product the trade buys, at close to what the trade pays, and you keep the difference.

Direct, not risky

Cutting the middle out
should not cut the safety net.

Sourcing overseas on your own is a gamble on quality, on stock and on your money. We keep the parts of a retailer that protect you and drop the parts that only add cost.

Manufacturers we verify

We do not list a catalog we have not handled. Every finish we sell exists as a physical sample we can put in your hands before you commit.

Charged only when stock is confirmed

Placing an order puts a hold on your card. We confirm the stock with the factory first, and only then is the payment taken.

Ships flat, arrives complete

Ready to assemble means a smaller freight bill and fewer damaged panels. Everything needed to build the unit ships in the box.

For manufacturers

You build it.
We put it in front of the buyer.

ARAE is a distribution channel for factories that are tired of selling through three layers before reaching a homeowner. If you manufacture for the home, we want to see your catalog.
