Most grocery stores buy wholesale organic food and then sell it to the consumer. The situations when wholesale organic food is sold directly to the consumer are less numerous. Wholesale applies to bulk quantities, and the idea of ‘wholesale’ is that  you can’t get the merchandise at a lower price. Individual clients don’t purchase in bulk because they don’t have the potential to consume at a large scale.

Some clever buyers have found shortcuts to help them buy wholesale organic food. The wholesale system has more price advantages, which is why people want to access these opportunities in a more convenient way. As long as you order in larger quantities, nobody minds individual customers buying from wholesalers. Buying clubs and local co-ops are your best chance of getting a discount.

With buying clubs, more friends and neighbors gather and make a common shopping list that enables them to take advantage of wholesale organic food prices. The Internet facilitates the shopping process a lot, because no matter what kind of food you are interested in chances are that you will find a higher diversity of offers. Check with Green People, American Health and Nutrition and the Morningside Buying Club to see what shopping options you’ve got with such a club.

Forming your own buying club is not that difficult. The thing is to get all the information you need from wholesalers, because you should identify the minimum ordered amount as well as solve the problem of shipment. Once you know such details and you consider them convenient for your situation, you can talk to family and friends and discuss their interest in joining your buying club. If you need more members, it is not such a bad idea to post signs around the community. Large clubs are more difficult to manage, therefore it is a good idea to keep things small, simple and feasible.

The access to wholesale organic food may thus be facilitated by a number of factors. In fact you may have ignored such chances until now. The transaction becomes more efficient when shopping with a common list, you can save money and you have the chance of protecting your health. The possibility to shop from wholesalers definitely opens new opportunities to the individual consumer, even if retailers have a lot to lose from it.
