Canadian Wholesale Directory for B2B Suppliers
It should not take twelve phone calls and numerous ignored emails to find a trustworthy wholesaler. Scott’s Directories fixes that with a database of 900,000+ Canadian companies, organized by industry, location, and specialization, with wholesaler and distributor profiles verified quarterly and refreshed continuously in between.
Whether you’re a retailer looking to fill your shelves, a manufacturer sourcing raw materials, or a supply chain manager comparing three suppliers on price, you get a Canadian wholesale directory built for sourcing, not for browsing.
What is the best Canadian wholesale directory for B2B sourcing?
Scott’s Directories is Canada’s largest wholesale business directory, covering more than 6 million contacts, including wholesalers, distributors, manufacturers, and suppliers. Each profile includes a NAICS industry code, location, and, where available, a named decision-maker contact. The full database is re-verified on a quarterly cycle, with contact details refreshed continuously in between, making it a reliable source for sourcing wholesale suppliers by province or industry.
What’s Inside This Directory
More Than a Company Name and a City
Thousands of companies make up our wholesale business list, each with the details you need to make that first call: company name, industry classification, location, and, where available, a named contact, not just a city and a switchboard number.
Contacts You Can Actually Reach
Every entry in our wholesale distributors in Canada dataset comes with contact information that’s been checked, not carried over from an old print edition. That means fewer dead phone numbers and fewer bounced emails three weeks into a sourcing project.
Built for Bulk, Not Just Browsing
Not every business that calls itself a wholesaler actually handles bulk purchasing and logistics. Our listings for wholesale suppliers in Canada flag which companies can handle volume and distribution, so you’re not chasing down suppliers who can’t actually fill the order.
Find What You Need in Seconds
Sort our wholesale business directory by product category, location, or specialization instead of scrolling past entries that don’t apply to you. Think of it less as a phonebook and more as a search engine built specifically for sourcing goods.
Why Businesses Use Scott’s Wholesale Database
- A database of 900k Canadian companies with full business profiles: names, contacts, industry codes, and locations, not just names and cities.
- Coverage across major industries, including wholesalers who supply resellers across Canada on competitive terms.
- Filtering by product category, geography, and specialization, narrowing thousands of results down to a short list within seconds.
- One subscription in place of a dozen separate supplier spreadsheets, all built around the same sourcing workflow.
Scott’s tracks more than 6.1 million contacts, with wholesaler and distributor data verified on a quarterly cycle and refreshed continuously in between.
How We Verify Our Data
Every listing goes through the same check before it reaches a subscriber: cross-referencing against multiple business sources, confirming NAICS industry classification, and validating contact details. The full database is re-verified on a quarterly cycle, with company and contact records updated continuously in between, not left untouched for a year, which is how most free directories go stale.
How This Compares to a Free Directory or Global Database
A free listing site or a quick search will usually get you a company name and a general phone number, with no way to tell if it was updated this year or five years ago. Scott’s adds verified decision-maker contacts, NAICS classification, and CRM-ready exports on top of the basics, making the difference between a cold call and a warm one.

Answers to the most common questions about our data, search and export features, and how to get started.
Still have questions? Contact usWhat type of data is in the wholesale directory?
Each profile includes company name, NAICS industry classification, location, and, where available, a named decision-maker contact, along with phone numbers, email addresses, and LinkedIn links. Many listings also include company size and revenue estimates, giving you enough context to qualify a supplier before you ever call.
Can I find contact information for the wholesale suppliers in the Canadian directory?
Yes. Every company in the wholesale suppliers in Canada directory includes at least one verified contact method, and most include a named executive rather than just a general company line. That's the main difference between this directory and a free listing site, where you often get a switchboard number and nothing else.
What is the advantage of using a wholesale business directory?
It replaces the twelve-calls-and-no-answer approach to sourcing. Instead of contacting each wholesaler individually to find out what they carry, filter the wholesale business directory by product category and capability first, then reach out only to the companies that actually match what you need.
Is the Canadian wholesale directory updated regularly?
Yes. The full Canadian wholesale directory is verified on a quarterly cycle, and contact details are updated continuously in between rather than refreshed once a year like many general business listings. Wholesalers, distributors, and manufacturers are added and revised as new information becomes available.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Scott's offers a free trial with no credit card required, so you can search the directory and see the actual data, company profiles, verified contacts, and filtering options before deciding on a subscription. It's a practical way to confirm the coverage and data quality for your specific industry or province before committing to a plan.

"Was a brand new employee about a 10 weeks ago and I could tell that Scott’s Directory had far more bells and whistles than I was using. Decided to give their helpline a try. Upon calling, I was greeted by a kind and bubbly phone assistant named Rabiya. She taught me how to create and save company lists. That action alone saved me a lot of time. She would take a moment at the end of every call to point out a feature I was not familiar with."
