The Glasses Basket operates a dedicated B2B trade portal exclusively for approved partner accounts — opticians, optical practices, and registered eyewear retailers across the United Kingdom.
Our Mission
Setting the Standard for Optical Trade Supply in the UK
At The Glasses Basket, we are committed to becoming the preferred wholesale eyewear and glazing partner for independent opticians and optical practices across the UK.
We believe in building lasting trade relationships — providing consistent quality, transparent pricing, and a service that makes your practice more efficient and your patients more satisfied.
Our continuing relationships with the best optical suppliers put us in a strong position to supply our partners with high-quality frames and lenses at competitive trade prices, backed by a glazing service that is fast, accurate, and fully tracked.
Core Values
Quality
Every glazing job leaves our UK lab only when it meets our optical standards. We work with proven materials and coatings — no shortcuts.
Transparency
No hidden fees. Wholesale pricing is visible on-screen the moment you log in. What you see is what you pay.
Speed
Independent practices need turnaround they can rely on. We aim to dispatch glazed orders within 5–7 working days, with tracked return as standard.
Partnership
We want to be the supplier you grow with — competitive tiered pricing as your order volume increases, and a team that responds within one working day.
