Solaris Wireless is a Miami-based electronic device supplier and distributor founded in 2013. The company has been a Google-approved vendor since 2016, has supplied 100,000+ mobile units, and operates 5 supply nodes across 4 continents. Solaris serves Fortune 500 enterprises, MVNOs and network operators, government agencies and restaurant technology platforms; it does not sell to consumers.
Solaris Wireless sources, provisions and fulfils electronic devices at institutional scale. Founded 2013, the company is the upstream supplier large organisations call when they need to buy mobile phones, laptops, IoT hardware, smart cameras, Starlink terminals or specialist components in volume, and need those devices configured, branded, packaged and delivered exactly to specification.
Five capabilities make Solaris distinct from generic distribution channels:
Solaris Wireless was founded in Miami in 2013 to serve a gap in institutional electronic device supply: between consumer-retail channels (which cannot price, configure or document devices for bulk procurement) and the largest mass enterprise distributors (which compete on catalogue breadth rather than per-engagement specialist provisioning). The company started by serving regional MVNO and Fortune 500 IT buyers in the southeastern United States and expanded internationally as institutional demand for SIM-locked, custom-OS-flashed, direct-to-end-user fulfilment grew.
In 2016, Google's procurement organisation needed a specific feature phone for internal testing and operations. The device was end-of-life, no longer produced by the manufacturer, and unavailable through standard distribution. Google's existing approved vendors had exhausted their options. Solaris Wireless located authentic units with full provenance documentation through certified secondary-market channels, completed delivery on Google's operational timeline, and was qualified as a Google-approved vendor as a result.
That engagement is detailed in the Google & Fortune 500 procurement case study and explained in what Google-approved vendor status actually means. Since 2016, Solaris has continuously supplied Google with smartphones, consumer electronics, IoT devices and specialist hardware for internal testing programmes, special-usage provisioning and global deployment programmes across 20+ countries.
Solaris's institutional buyers fall into five categories. The clients page lists named engagements; the case studies cover specific programmes in detail.
Solaris does not sell to consumers. There is no retail storefront, no consumer support channel, no individual-customer ordering. The minimum engagement is institutional volume (typically 50+ units for standard supply, 100+ units for custom-provisioned orders, sometimes thousands or tens of thousands for MVNO launches and government programmes). Buyers who need 1-10 phones for personal or small-business use should source through the carrier or OEM retail channel; Solaris's pricing, provisioning and fulfilment workflow only makes sense at institutional scale.
Solaris also does not act as a generic enterprise IT reseller. Mass distributors (CDW, Insight, SHI) compete on catalogue breadth and serve every IT category from servers to peripherals. Solaris focuses on electronic device supply with specialist provisioning depth: custom OS, SIM lock, MDM zero-touch, direct-to-end-user fulfilment, hard-to-find sourcing. For broad multi-product enterprise IT procurement, a mass distributor is typically the right path; for institutional device-supply with provisioning depth, Solaris is the specialist.
Solaris Wireless operates 5 supply-chain nodes across 4 continents. Miami, Florida is the headquarters and the primary node for North American and Latin American programmes. The Netherlands node serves European and West African deployments. Dubai (UAE) handles Middle Eastern and East African engagements. Hong Kong sits at the centre of the OEM manufacturing supply chain across China, Vietnam, Thailand and India. Singapore serves Asia Pacific and Oceania, including the maritime shipping lanes that anchor Starlink Maritime kit deployment for commercial vessels.
The 5-node footprint exists for a specific reason: institutional buyers who need direct-to-site delivery across multiple regions cannot wait 4-6 weeks for inventory to ship from one continent to another. Solaris ships from the closest node to each end-user destination, which compresses lead times and supports rapid-response engagements (the U.S. Government 72-hour ruggedised-comms programme is an example).
Institutional device procurement is heavily regulated, and the compliance side is part of the engagement, not an afterthought. Solaris handles:

For pricing, lead time and contract-vehicle proposals, contact the team via the homepage contact form or call +1 (305) 222-7353. The team responds within one business day. For RFP/RFQ submissions, contracting officers can submit through the same channel; provide the SOW or RFP document and the team will return a contract-vehicle proposal aligned to the agency's preferred path (GSA Schedule, NASPO ValuePoint, SEWP, NITAAC, direct-to-agency, allied-nation FMS).
Bulk-quantity engagements typically progress through: (1) initial scoping call to confirm device specification, quantity, provisioning needs, geographic distribution and compliance constraints; (2) written proposal with per-unit pricing, lead time, and contract terms; (3) sample order (typically 5-25 units for compliance and configuration validation); (4) volume order with direct-to-end-user fulfilment and chain-of-custody documentation; (5) ongoing forecast-based reserve for repeat engagements.
