putrevus Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Hi All Thanks a lot in advance for replies. How much do you charge for 20 oz bottles and where do you buy.Sams and Costco are almost costing 92 cents. Where do you buy these buns and pastries.

Vander Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Anywhere from 1.25 to 2.00 a bottle, depending on the location. Then higher priced bottles are at locations like hospitals or hotels. and these are commission based. As an independent vendor, we feel the pressure for higher prices by the distributor. They want us to raise our prices so they don't feel so bad about raising their own. In purchasing your 20oz bottles, I would go straight to the distributor. You will have a minimum order, but they will work with you. As a vendor, you get a pretty good price on 20oz cases, better than c stores. The best deal in town is Dr. Pepper, as their cases only run about 14 to 15 a case, not to mention, if they put you on their rebate program you can get up to a dollar a case back.

allprovending Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 You cant buy 20 oz. bottles from Sams or Costco, they sell the 16.9 oz bottles. You can only get the 20 oz. bottles from the bottlers so you have to set up a 3rd party vendor account with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparta_Automation Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 You can get the 20 oz bottles from Costco Business Centers, however at $25 per case, it makes them a little pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allprovending Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Really....I have never seen them at Sams or Costco but who would pay 25 a case? Get them from the bottler for 18.00 a case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
