New vendors with Best Buy - Please review the below Onboarding Activity guides prior to registering:

  1. Traditional Domestic Vendor Onboarding Guide (Traditional Domestic Core Vendor)
    • This list of activities applies only to Domestic Core Vendors where Best Buy takes ownership of inventory and fulfills through the brick & mortar and dot-com channels. This does not apply to SDF (Supplier Direct Fulfillment) Vendors.
    • Some steps occur in conjunction with other steps. Please review the entire guide to ensure that the correct people on your teams are involved and aware.
    • All activities must be complete prior to sale of product.
       
  2. Supplier Direct Fulfillment (SDF) Vendor Onboarding Guide (Domestic SDF Vendor)
    • This list of activities applies only to Domestic Supplier Direct Fulfillment (SDF) merchandising Vendors where the Vendor has ownership of inventory and fulfills through the dot-com channel directly to Best Buy customers. This does not apply to Core (where Best Buy takes ownership of inventory and fulfills through the brick & mortar channel) Vendors.
    • SDF Vendor set-ups take about 4 weeks longer than Core Vendor set-ups due to the wait required to obtain a Best Buy UPS account number.
    • Some steps occur in conjunction with other steps. Please review this entire guide to ensure that the correct people on your teams are involved and aware.
    • All activities must be complete prior to sale of product.
