kost-online.com is a B2B eyewear wholesale e-commerce platform operated by Netherlands-based Kost International BV, with over 20 years of industry experience. It primarily serves global importers, distributors, wholesalers and retailers, offering a full range of optical products including sunglasses, polarized lenses, clip-on glasses, kids' eyewear, reading glasses, blue light lenses and display accessories. It owns two proprietary brands, KOST and Kristian Olsen Denmark, and does not conduct direct retail sales to general consumers.
The platform allows unregistered users to browse its entire product catalog, but registration of a corporate account is required to place orders and request quotes. The minimum order quantity is 12 pieces per style. For standard styles, orders are shipped as assorted colors per dozen. Large orders are eligible for tiered bulk discounts based on order volume. Shipping costs are calculated automatically at checkout based on order weight and destination. It supports dropshipping and blind shipping, and users can subscribe to back-in-stock alerts for out-of-stock items. The platform stores inventory at local warehouses in the Netherlands and Spain, with orders shipped within 12 hours. Delivery takes an average of 1-2 business days across Europe, and global shipping is available.
All products comply with EU CE certification and United States regulatory requirements. Every pair of sunglasses provides full UV400 protection, so compliance is fully guaranteed.
Advantages include fast delivery from local European warehouses, a mature supply chain, experience serving multiple well-known international retail brands, clear compliance procedures, and access to in-person sample viewing at offline showrooms. Disadvantages are that it only serves B2B clients, does not support retail, does not publicly display product pricing, and only accepts bank transfers as a payment method, resulting in a relatively high entry barrier.
The website is currently fully accessible directly, supports registration and purchasing for Chinese enterprises, and can arrange for Chinese clients to visit partner factories for sample viewing. Overall, it is a great fit for domestic Chinese importers and eyewear retailers looking to source optical products that meet European standards.
