How Vendra works
Four stages. One seamless sourcing workflow. Built around how designers actually discover, evaluate, and specify brands in the real world.
–––––––– BRAND DISCOVERY
Move beyond the same familiar sources.
Vendra helps designers uncover brands, showrooms, makers, and trade resources by category, market, access model, and representation... so sourcing starts with a wider, smarter field of options.

–––––––– COMMON QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know
about getting started
Is Vendra free to use?
Vendra is a paid trade resource. Founding memberships are available at $19/month for members who join before January 1, 2027. This rate is locked for life as long as your subscription remains active — if you cancel, the founding rate is forfeited. After January 1, 2027, new member pricing increases to $29/month as new features, rep mapping, and service provider tools are added. All memberships include a 7-day free trial.
Is this only for US designers?
Vendra currently focuses on the U.S. trade market while continuing to add international brand and showroom coverage. Many listed brands have global distribution, representation, or showroom presence.
How does project organization work?
Users can save brands and showrooms, then organize them by project. This helps keep sourcing research tied to the correct client, location, or specification phase.
How are brands vetted for the directory?
Every brand in Vendra is manually reviewed, categorized, and structured by our team — not scraped, auto-generated, or crowd-sourced. We organize product categories, showroom locations, trade access notes, and sourcing details so the directory is accurate and useful. The design industry moves constantly — reps change, showrooms shift, lines evolve — and Vendra is built to move with it. Listings are updated on an ongoing basis, and if you spot something outdated, you can submit an update directly from any brand page.
Can I use Vendra for commercial projects?
Yes. Vendra is useful for residential, hospitality, workplace, retail, and other specification-driven interiors. The platform is built around brands, showrooms, and trade resources — not one project type.
I'm a brand — can I claim my listing?
Yes. Brand representatives, showrooms, reps, and makers can submit updates to help keep Vendra accurate as lines, locations, and representation change.
