Selling a bundle of branded products that I am approved to sell.

Hi,

I am approved to sell a particular non-consumable brand (proven with invoices from my supplier). I sell them individually, but also want to sell them in a group. I can see that other sellers are doing this under their own brand name. I don't understand why I cannot get similar approval.

From what I understand, I need an EAN from GS1 that names my brand (not the brand that I am selling). I then need to create packaging that shows my logo (properly fixed) and then send that in for approval.

I just keep hitting a wall. I use stickers for the brand labels - which must meet the guidelines for being properly attached otherwise you wouldn't be able to sell a jar of jam on Amazon, they show my brand, address, barcode, SKU, etc, etc. But I just hit a brick wall, and the responses back are so generic that I don't know what to fix.

It is a ridiculous policy to prevent bundles from being sold. Manufacturers don't stop retailers from selling multiple products together at the till in a physical shop, so why on earth would Amazon make it so hard to give customers convenient purchasing solutions on what is meant to be the world's most convenient e-commerce site?

I just want to sell 4 of the same things like my competitors are being allowed to do.

Many thanks

Your competitors are actually in the wrong - they shouldn't be selling under their own brand.

If retailers were putting "Lidl" or "Asda" stickers over Heinz's logo then i think Heinz would have something to say about it.
