# Can you make floor sofa sets in bulk for my cafe, shop or event business?

*A business order is a home order repeated, with a deadline attached. Get the list right and the rest follows.*

Also asked as: discount if we buy 10 of them; 2-seat and 3-seat couches with armrest

> **The quick answer:** Yes, floor sofa sets can be made in bulk for a cafe, shop, catering business or playroom, in custom sizes, and multi-set orders are priced per project. One order of five matching seat-and-backrest sets came in below the single-set price. Ask for production and delivery times in writing with the quote, and confirm any fixed deadline before you order.

## Key facts

- A floor sofa set can include a floor cushion, a backrest and two armrests.
- Sizes are custom, e.g. 6.3 x 2.2 ft and 4.2 x 2.2 ft sets for a shop seating area.
- Five 28 x 30 x 8 in (71 x 76 x 20 cm) seat-plus-backrest sets were quoted at a lower price per set than a single set.
- A 20-piece mixed floor couch order for a catering business also came down from the regular price.
- One five-set order was quoted at about 1 week of processing plus about 4 days of delivery.
- Delivery deadlines can be confirmed before you order.
- Large orders are usually discussed by phone or messaging app.

## The list a trade quote needs

- ✓ Every piece by type: seat, backrest, armrests, single seats.
- ✓ Every size in inches, and how many of each.
- ✓ One fabric code and one piping choice for the whole order.
- ✓ Your hard deadline, if there is one. It can be confirmed before you pay.
- ✓ Your budget, if you buy professionally. You may be asked for it.

## Two real multi-set orders, side by side

|   | Five matching sets | Twenty mixed pieces |
|---|---|---|
| What | 28 x 30 x 8 in (71 x 76 x 20 cm) seat plus backrest, five times | 5 two-seaters and 5 three-seaters with armrests, plus 10 single seats |
| Price | Came down per set | Came down on the whole order |
| Timing | About 1 week processing plus about 4 days delivery | Delivery confirmed before the buyer's deadline |
| Who asked | A buyer asking for trade pricing | A catering business |

## A shop's seating corner in two sets

A shop owner wanted a seating area for customers: two floor sofa sets, one about 76 x 26 in (192 x 67 cm) and one about 50 x 26 in (128 x 67 cm), each with a floor cushion, a backrest and two armrests. The quote came back as one figure with shipping included, and the sets were ready in 10 days.

## Why a bigger floor sofa order isn't automatically cheaper per piece

Here's the part that surprises people, dear. The five identical sets came down more per set than the twenty-piece mixed order came down overall. I won't pretend to know every reason behind every quote, but the matching sets came out best.

For fabric, wear and cleaning on a busy floor, read [cushions for cafes, rentals and offices](https://cushionguide.com/guides/commercial-cushions-cafe-rental-specs/) before you choose, and [tufted floor couch set sizes](https://cushionguide.com/guides/tufted-floor-couch-set-sizes/) for the pieces themselves. Seat sizes and fills are in [floor cushions and floor seating](https://cushionguide.com/cushions/floor-cushions/).

## Buyer questions

**A common question:** Do you offer trade pricing for several floor sofa sets?

**The workshop's answer:** Often, yes: it's agreed per quote. One order of five sets of a 28 x 30 x 8 in seat plus backrest came in below the single-set price. Professional buyers are also asked for their budget, so have a number ready.

**A common question:** Is there a bulk discount on tufted floor couches, and can you meet a delivery deadline?

**The workshop's answer:** In one case, yes on both. A catering business ordered 5 two-seat and 5 three-seat couches with armrests plus 10 single seats; the regular price came down, and delivery before its deadline was confirmed before the order went in. Large orders are usually talked through by phone or messaging app.

**A common question:** I'm an interior designer. Is there a trade discount?

**The workshop's answer:** There's no fixed trade program. Designer pricing is agreed per project, and a designer's first order has been quoted below the regular price. Swatch sets can go to your studio, so you can pick codes with the client.

## Questions buyers ask next

### How long does a bulk floor sofa order take?

The workshop confirms production and delivery times with each quote. One five-set order allowed about a week of processing plus about 4 days of delivery. If you have a fixed date, name it before you order so the quote can be checked against it.

### Do business quotes include shipping?

The shop seating set quote did: it came back as one figure with shipping included. That was one quote, so check the shipping line on yours.

### Does every set need armrests?

No. Sets come as seat and backrest, with or without two armrests, and one order can mix two-seaters and three-seaters with armrests and single seats without.
