- There is no franchise fee. Partnership cost is the opening stock order — sized to your region and the projects you plan to serve. Most partners start with a working inventory across the core wood-finish and mineral-paint range. The exact figure is agreed during the second-round conversation, after we understand your business and territory. We work with established retailers, contractors, and design studios at a range of scales — there is no single number.
- Yes — for committed partners. Territory size is calibrated to local market density and your business capacity (a Mumbai sub-district looks different from an entire tier-2 city). Exclusivity is granted in writing as part of the onboarding agreement and protects you from another LEINOS dealer being appointed in the same area for the agreed term, contingent on minimum activity.
- LEINOS India is the official brand portal for the country — pricing and architect-grade enquiries are routed through us. Authorised partners may take orders through their own website / WhatsApp / showroom within their territory, at LEINOS-aligned pricing. Listings on third-party marketplaces (Amazon, Flipkart, IndiaMART, etc.) are restricted to protect the spec channel and avoid price erosion across territories.
- Training is complimentary for active partners. The LEINOS India technical lead conducts on-site or video training sessions for your sales team and for crews you work with — covering substrate prep, application protocol, drying windows, system pairings, and how to answer the most common architect questions. Additional walkthroughs on live projects are available on request, no charge.
- Print and digital marketing pack — product brochures, shade swatches, sample boxes (A4 finished panels), Technical Data Sheets (TDS), Safety Data Sheets (SDS), certification stamps, and high-resolution product photography. Partners also receive their dealer listing on the official LEINOS India site once the territory is active.
- Typical timeline from application to first sale: 3–6 weeks. Week 1 — application review and conversation. Week 2 — territory agreement and stock order. Week 3–4 — stock ships from our Delhi warehouse, training scheduled. Week 4–6 — training complete, marketing material in hand, you begin specifying LEINOS for live projects in your region.
- No. Many LEINOS partners stock complementary ranges — that is healthy and expected. LEINOS occupies the premium natural-finish slot in your line-up, not the mass-market slot. We ask that LEINOS is given fair shelf and showroom visibility, not exclusivity of your business. Direct competitors in the natural-finish premium register are discussed case-by-case during onboarding.
