AkzoNobel, BASF, Dow, DuPont, Hunstman, Momentive, etc. There are 100's of distributors for these brands. Maybe exclusive source for some of the products these brands make. In which case, is it really sales if you're the only source?

ChemPoint is different in than its suppliers are its customers... but we don't actually tell the "customers" that ("customers" being the businesses and individuals to which we sell). ChemPoint sets the pricing based on what the suppliers ask ChemPoint to sell it at. ChemPoint is almost 100% the exclusive source for the brands it represents, which means that almost all customers are buying from ChemPoint out of obligation because they must adhere to their own product specifications (aka: their product recipe and/or process). [Note: Only a small percentage of customers realize this, and the ones that do only know because their parent or partnering company is a ChemPoint partners.]
