Member Benefits Supplier Benefits

How the Group Works

Each Member, when accepted into N1, is assigned a unique member number. Members continue to place orders with their Suppliers, in the same manner, they have always ordered. This may include phone, fax, the Supplier’s website or, EDI purchase orders. The N1 office will advise Suppliers of the Member’s unique N1 Member Number for the Member’s ordering location (this will be included in every Supplier document). When Members place their first order with an N1 Supplier, they simply confirm the Supplier has correctly registered their N1 Member Number and continue normally.
