Founded in 1950, Begros GmbH is one of Germany's leading purchasing cooperatives in the furniture industry. Headquartered in Oberhausen, Begros coordinates buying and product data across its retail members. These members include both large chains and family-owned businesses, specializing in furniture, home decor, kitchens, and more.

Begros itself does not publish fixed seller fees, as commercial terms are typically negotiated between the supplier and individual retailers or via Begros agreements. Cost factors include:

• Product category and margin structure
• Brand positioning and logistics model
• Conditions negotiated centrally vs. retailer-specific terms

Note:

For accurate pricing and commission details, suppliers should contact the Begros sourcing team or individual retail members. Comparable purchasing groups and marketplaces in Germany may apply commission rates between 10–25%, depending on the product and commercial model. This is a market reference only, not Begros-specific.

Begros uses Excel-based templates to coordinate product data across its member retailers. shopvibes automates the entire process to save time and reduce manual errors.
