Banana box grocery, cased goods and general merchandise wholesaler & liquidator - by the box, pallet or truckload

Thousands of stores nationwide close for many reasons - some poor performance, some for remodeling and renovation, some due to Mergers & Acquisitions activity. Have you ever wondered about where does all of their merchandise go? Ever wondered where chains such as Marshalls, Ross, TJMAXX, Value Depot and others get their discounted merchandise? Well, wonder no more. without a doubt, they get their merchandise form overstock, surplus and liquidation distributors.

One such distributor is GDC. GDC, based in Fresno, California, distributes a wide variety of surplus grocery products, case goods, and overstock items to customers worldwide. GDC is the largest banana box wholesaler in the nation. ( ever been to a flea market and seen sellers with lots of banana boxes spread out on the ground?)

TERMINOLOGY EXPLAINED

Banana Box Groceries 
 


Banana box groceries are a product of the reclamation process. Unsold and/or partially damaged goods at the store level are routed back to a reclamation service for vendor bill back and processing. After the product is processed it is packed in banana boxes. Usually there is a wide variety of mixed items. This product is great for flea market vendors and small discount stores. The products are generally not suitable for chain store environments due the reverse processing required. Banana boxes could be boxes with mixes of food, health and beauty, pet foods and other items, or items from specific categories only.

Cased Goods Grocery


Cased groceries are fresh goods in original sealed boxes. Generally these items come directly via the manufacturer or their distribution channel. These groceries are suitable for retail sales at virtually any brick & mortar establishment, as well as wholesale sales, import and export sales, etc. this is an opportunity to save mega money on purchasing quality retail-ready merchandise.

General Merchandise 
 

General Merchandise pallets are loose packed into brown boxes and generally all items in the pallet fall within a category, such as toys, cleaning, paper goods, domestics, electronics, etc. These pallets are either sold by the pallet at a fixed price or as a percentage of wholesale. You can buy these by the pallet, but larger quantity discounts are almost always offered for full truckload purchases.

Reliable wholesale company specializing in drop shipping services with concentration on wholesale electronics and related products.

May people do not have any money to kick-start their online selling venture, and are searching for quality wholesale suppliers that offer dropshipping. Truth it, there are tons of companies out there that claim to be a drop shipper, when in reality they are not - FAR FROM THAT. They just want your money - upfront money.


Rule of thumb when looking for a wholesaler and/or drop shipper:

1) NEVER EVER PAY A FEE to join. If they ask for a fee - they are not a real dropship or wholesale company. They promise you access to millions of items suitable for dropshipping, but they do not have any of those items, and are simply an agregator (like DOBA). If there is a fee involved - RUN! ( don't confuse a joining/access fee with a drop-ship fee that some companies charge. That fee is usually very small, and charged per order. This is a standard practice, just be sure to calculate it upfront so you know how to price your items)



DO YOUR RESEARCH!! We can't stress that enough.
Equally important is to make sure a wholesale / dropship source you are dealing with actually has all of their offered products in stock, meaning they own their own warehouse and stock everything they sell. You only want to deal direct with a company that has your product "in-hand".

One such company we can recommend is Megagoods our of California. Megagoods is a distributor of consumer electronics with a specialization in drop shipping services.

this is a solid company with great overall track record. They are not the cheapest, so profit margins might be small on some items, but they are quite reliable. We've learned over the years that you do not need to be the lowest priced to sell an item, not at all, but you do need to offer a great service and be consistent. This company would work best for you if you have your own website and want to add products. surely, you can list some items on ebay as well - secret is to write a UNIQUE product description, one that is full of keywords people use to search for this product (more on that in our future posts), and of course, write a unique auction headline, to maximize your potential to sell.

good luck.
