The Distributor Programme

Join our global distributor network

We have over 300 authorized distributors that are an essential part of our global distributor network who are selling our products to their customer base.

With over 60,000 standards and publications covering a wide range of sectors, our distributors can choose to specialize in their specific sectors, such as fire safety and security, or cover the wider market and offer the complete range of BSI products.

What do you get by becoming a BSI distributor?

To assist our distributors in generating revenue from sales, there are generous discounts available, supported by regular standard updates and specialist newsletters.

Becoming a BSI distributor enables you and your organization to use the BSI brand to enhance customer engagement. It also means that we will be working in a partnership, where we will supply you with relevant standards and publications that you wish to purchase, for the purpose of resale and/or distribution to your customer and membership base.

You can purchase BS, BS EN, BS EN ISO, BS ISO and PAS standards as well as books and other valuable content and publications.

Sales options

  • Bulk purchase of standards and books are available at healthy discounts.

  • Licence to print  - This option offers you the opportunity to print locally from a PDF, and only pay a royalty on the number of copies printed.  This option is available for orders of 20+ copies.

  • Licence to print is especially beneficial when hosting Training courses for BS EN ISO 9001, 14001 and BS EN ISO/IEC 27001 etc, as you only pay for the exact amount of copies which you use.  Choosing this option also eliminates delivery charges.

  • Promo code:  Work with our distributor team to set up promo codes for agreed standards that will provide your members with discounts off single copy purchases from the BSI Shop.

  • Affiliate Scheme: Host links on your website which re-direct your members to the relevant pages on the BSI Knowledge. They can then browse and buy and we'll fulfil the order. Their journey will be tracked from the initial click through to the purchase. For each sale made, you as the host will receive a minimum 10% commission.
