Save with Buyer's Groups

How to Start a Buyer's Group for Survival Supplies and Save Big

In uncertain times, being prepared isn’t just smart—it’s essential. When it comes to being prepared, having the right gear can be a lifesaver—whether it's respirators, water filtration systems, emergency food, or protective gear. But let’s face it: buying top-tier gear for yourself and your family can get expensive.

That’s where the power of a buyer’s group comes in. By teaming up with your family, friends, or even your local community, you can pool resources and negotiate bulk discounts that lower the cost for everyone involved. At McDaniel Mill, we specialize in working with buyer’s groups and can offer you bulk pricing discounts.

Here’s how you can start your own buyer’s group and get the most out of your preparedness purchases:

Step 1: Identify Your Network

Think about who in your circle shares an interest in preparedness. This could include family members, close friends, neighbors, or even co-workers. The goal is to find like-minded people who would be interested in pooling resources to secure essential survival supplies at a lower cost.

Even a small group of 5 to 10 people can have enough buying power to qualify for significant discounts, so don’t feel like you need a massive network to begin. Even a small group of 5 to 10 people can have enough buying power to qualify for significant discounts.

Step 2: Choose the Right Products

Once you have your group, it’s time to figure out what supplies everyone needs. Popular bulk items include:

• Respirators and Filters: Essential for protection against airborne contaminants during disasters or chemical events.

• Emergency Food Supplies: Long-lasting food with shelf lives of 20 to 30 years.

• Water Filtration Systems: Critical for ensuring clean drinking water in emergencies.

• Protective Gear: Gloves, goggles, and other equipment for chemical or fallout scenarios.

We recommend starting with a few high-priority items that everyone can agree on. McDaniel Mill offers a wide range of certified, top-quality gear, and we can even source additional items not listed on our website from our trusted suppliers, ensuring your group has plenty of options.
