現地［地元］流通業者によって供給［支給、提供］される


Explanation:
その付属品（と金具）は現地［地元］流通業者によって供給［支給、提供］されます。

"fitting" is actuall "金具", but it also has a meaning of "付属品". So, "accessories and fittings" can be "付属品" in total.

販売代理店から購入できる


Explanation:
distributor には、流通業者、卸業者、販売業者、特約販売店などの意味があります。
agent は、取次店とか代理店と訳します。

distributor agent と二つの言葉を合わせると、流通という広範囲の作業の中でも販売の段階、特に販売代理店のことを示すことが多いようです。

もちろん、「〜によって支給、提供、販売される」と受動態でも訳せますが、文脈によっては、顧客の側から見て「購入できる」と訳してもよいのでは？
