The hard part

Grocery is the most competitive shelf there is.

Every grocery buyer has more new items than open slots. A product that does not sell fast gets cut at the next reset, and the slot goes to the next brand in line.

Chains want proof before they say yes: stores that reorder, shoppers who come back. Independent grocers are where you earn it. The owner decides, the order is small, and the shelf tells you the truth in weeks.

That is where we start. Our network, our warehouse, our people in the store.

What we do for grocery

Everything between your product and a reorder.

  • 500+ independent grocery stores

    Our network of independent grocers. We place your product where the owner decides, and the shelf moves fast.

  • Our own distribution warehouse

    We own and run it. Your inventory sits with us, close to the stores we sell to.

  • Local distributor partners

    Partnerships with local distributors, so stores can order you the way they order everything else.

  • In-store sampling

    We pass out samples where your product sits. Shoppers taste it, buy it, and you get the feedback.

  • Merchandising support

    Shelf checks, facings, price tags and displays. Store by store, with photos and a weekly report.

  • Direct email campaigns

    New item emails to our wholesale accounts. The people who buy for stores hear about you first.

  • Buyer meetings

    We book the meetings and walk in with your numbers: stores, sell-through and reorders.

  • Trade show representation

    We work your booth, book buyer meetings, and follow up on every lead after the show.

  • E-commerce websites

    A store of your own online, built and run by our team, so shoppers who find you can buy you.
