Grocery and Convenience Store Wholesale Supplier
Convenience retail lives on turnover, not on depth. American General Distributors sells by the case so a single store can restock the lines that are actually moving instead of committing to a distributor programme built around ten SKUs it does not want.
Why case-pack buying suits a small store
Shelf space is the scarce thing in a convenience store, and it should be filled by decision rather than by contract. Buying a case of what sells, seeing it through, and reordering is a tighter loop than a quarterly pallet commitment.
What you get
- Factory-sealed goods in the manufacturer’s own packaging, with lot codes and dating intact.
- Minimum order quantity on every listing — no quotation round-trip to find out.
- Genuine branded merchandise sourced through authorised channels.
- Despatch 3–5 business days after payment clears.
The lines that turn
Grocery and gourmet food and health and household carry the everyday basket; beauty and personal care and accessories hold the counter and impulse positions. Pet supplies is a quiet repeat earner most convenience stores under-stock.
How you pay
US accounts settle by ACH bank transfer, which is the cheapest and fastest route and the one we recommend. Buyers outside the United States pay by wire or international SWIFT wire. Goods are despatched 3–5 business days after the funds clear. Full detail on our payment policy page.
Opening a wholesale account
Registration is free. Upload your EIN or resale certificate at sign-up so your tax status is set correctly from the first order. Create your wholesale account, or call +1 (754) 293-6834 if you would rather talk stock first. We ship across the USA and worldwide.
Trading cards at the checkout
Pokémon and other sealed trading card product is one of the strongest impulse categories at a till, but the mix that works at a counter is not the mix a hobby shop buys. Our guide to wholesale Pokémon cards for convenience stores covers what sells at the counter, how case packs map to your shelf space, and how to size a first order.

How much do I need to order?
Grocery and convenience buyers ask what a first order has to reach. The minimum is $5,000 across the whole order, not per product. Mix as many products as you like and set your own quantity on each. That order value is what unlocks wholesale pricing, and it is how a first testing order is normally put together.
Below $5,000, or if you want to ask about the MOQ on a particular line or a bulk discount, contact our team by email or WhatsApp chat. We will confirm the products and quantities and approve the order before it is placed. We do not sell retail or single units. Full detail on how the minimum works.
