Choose a wholesale candy supplier by matching catalog depth to your assortment, confirming case packs and minimums fit your shelf space, checking they ship reliably to your region, and verifying they can supply documentation such as country-of-origin and allergen details for the lines you stock.
Catalog depth and fit
A supplier that carries both volume staples and differentiated imported lines lets you build a complete assortment from one account, reducing purchase orders and consolidating freight. Confirm the catalog covers the categories your channel actually sells.
Case packs, minimums, and freight
Wholesale buying is done by the case, so check that case configurations and minimums suit your storage and turnover. Ask how freight is quoted — per order based on weight and destination is normal — so you see real costs rather than estimates.
Documentation and terms
For imported candy, country-of-origin and allergen documentation matters for labeling and customer questions. Confirm availability on request, and ask about account terms such as wholesale pricing access and Net-30. When in doubt, request a quote to test responsiveness.
