Baby Lock is a leading manufacturer of sewing machines, sergers and embroidery machines. Both sewers and craft enthusiasts enjoy Baby Lock’s machines and accessories. Baby Lock only sells its products through independent dealers throughout the United States. These dealers may include mom and pop stores, specialty stores, boutiques and traveling salespeople. Those interested in selling these products need to become an authorized dealer. This involves contacting the Baby Lock company and obtaining a dealer agreement.
