Home and kitchen at AGD is a compact category of 30 factory-sealed products chosen for weight, giftability and repeat sales rather than for variety. It includes Yankee Candle jars, Zulay garlic presses, olive-oil dispenser sets, roll-up dish racks, under-sink mats and Safer Home fly traps. Each product is sold by the case, and because most of the category is heavy or bulky, wholesale home and kitchen products by the pallet is how the majority of our buyers order it.

Who orders home and kitchen from us - subscription-box companies, which buy a single product such as a Yankee Candle jar in enough cases to fill a month's boxes; eBay, Walmart Marketplace and Amazon FBA sellers who want housewares that ship well and are hard to counterfeit; small independent resellers, gift shops and hardware stores filling a seasonal or gift display; grocery and convenience stores adding candles and fly traps at the checkout; and hospitality buyers including bars, clubs, restaurants and short-term-rental operators equipping kitchens and bathrooms in bulk. It is also a category that dropshippers in the home niche stock domestically because the weight makes overseas single-unit shipping uneconomic.

Pallet-friendly heavy goods - candles in glass, dish racks and under-sink mats are dense and durable, which makes them ideal for pallet freight. A standard pallet from Doral, Florida can carry a mix of products from this category shrink-wrapped and strapped, with the case labels facing out so receiving is quick. Ordering by the pallet rather than by loose cases lowers your freight cost per unit substantially, reduces damage in transit because nothing is handled individually, and lets us load the same pallet with products from other categories to reach a full load. For candles, cases are packed with dividers by the manufacturer and we do not repack them; for glass items we add corner protection to the pallet. Fly traps and garlic presses are light and are used to top off a pallet rather than to anchor it. If you order less than a pallet, cases ship by parcel or LTL freight, still factory-sealed.

How the first order tends to look - the minimum order value is $5,000 mixed freely. A gift-shop or subscription-box buyer will often reach it with candles alone, taking ten to twenty cases across a few fragrances. A hardware or general store spreads it wider: a few cases each of dish racks, under-sink mats, olive-oil dispenser sets and garlic presses, plus fly traps for the seasonal aisle. Hospitality buyers usually add home and kitchen to a larger order of health and household cleaning products so that one pallet covers everything. Any product can be ordered from a single case, so testing a new item costs one case, not a pallet.We do not process orders under $5,000.

What every product page tells you - the price per unit, the minimum quantity for that product and the order value at that minimum. Pricing is quoted against your order. An order placed at the listed minimum ships at the checkout flat rate; for larger quantities freight is calculated on the actual pallet or case weight, which favors buyers who order heavy goods in volume.

Ordering, payment and despatch - register with a resale certificate or EIN if you are a US tax-exempt buyer; international buyers order as guests. Pay by ACH (recommended), domestic wire or international SWIFT wire. Orders despatch three to five business days after payment clears and ship to the whole USA first, then to Canada, the UK, Australia, Europe, Switzerland, Singapore, Japan, Korea, Turkey and the Gulf. Heavy goods to international destinations normally travel by sea on a pallet; at the destination you can clear them through your own customs broker or use our VAT and customs clearance service.
