Costco takes no inventory risk: you bring product in, take unsold units back out, and get paid on what sold. Staff, samples, signage and freight are yours, and you sell the retail packs you already make: no new inventory, packaging or production. Buyers usually want at least four shows, and you choose the warehouses together with the buying team.
A member pick from the packs you already make, scanned once, at least 30% off the lowest sale price on the market. The pick also shows which flavor members love most.
