I have only used Concord from Sam's and Ford from Costco.  Even my customers have asked me several times where I buy my gumballs and they say they are better than they ususally get out of machines.  It's no contest for me - Ford wins hands down!

I started out with Doubble Bubble, but I wanted a better gumball to sell. I have finished my box of Double Bubble and am now using Ford (Carousel). I think it is important to have a decent GB when a lot of your customers would be repeat customers. We'll see how it works out.

I've used standard gumballs, bright gumballs and Nerds. It always shows that Nerds sell more where I'm at. I haven't tried Ford though. Nerds and Neon are here local, well, pretty local.

I might have to check into Ford just to try it out, but so far, nothing compares to Nerds.

When I search Costco for gum the only results returned are for the nicotine gum.

Anybody willing to share where they get their Ford gum?

Costco has 3 clubs geared toward business. Las Vegas, AZ and one in WA. You have to select one if these as your home club when shopping on line and they will ship it to your club of choice. There is a min order of a couple hundred

Cases? Or dollars?

Ok, so far there isn't a Costco that even does shipping from other locations for customer. I called my local place and they said they didn't do it any more and don't even think that any of them local does. I'll have to dig a little more. If not, I'll have to stick with Oak Leaf Neon's and Nerds

By the way Ford sells Oak Leaf products and toys. Their toy selection wasn't that great the last time I ordered but you can get some stuff and save on shipping from multiple places if you're a small vendor.

I always get Ford assorted and Oak Leaf Nerds every order.

They just sell the gacha products right? I checked their gacha stuff a while back and they were even more expensive that when gacha was in CA. That could have changed by now. Do they have on line cap product listings ?

Their products were mostly A & A stuff. There are some items that are Fords own. The prices were the same as A & A's. There are no toy products online that I know of, they just sent me a price list with everything on it.

Is Ford GB's that much better? Or is it because they're at Sam's Club? Do they sell that much better than say Neon gb's from Oak Leaf? I haven't tried them, but Neons in the past sold better than other OL flavors. (except nerds)

Ford and Oak Leaf quality are comparable (Oak Leaf was started by guys leaving Ford) so it's a Ford Versus Chevy kind of thing. Concord (Dubble Bubble) is the Yugo of the gum world, starts out hard, tastes bad, (compared to Ford and Oak Leaf) and doesn't last long.

I don't get my gum from Sams, I get it straight from Ford.
