Mr. Checkout Distributors have serviced grocery and convenience stores in the U.S. since 1989 through a network of local wholesale distributors. We are not a franchise, so there are no franchise fees or royalties to eat into your bottom line. Each route distributor is independent and has full control over his or her own business.

The extremely low cost of entry means you will be making money fast. There is no requirement to have an office or warehouse location. Your home can be your office and your van can be your warehouse.

Once you acquire your territory, an experienced Mr. Checkout distributor will come out to you and build your route for you while you observe. Before he leaves you can have a up to a minimum of 100 retail store locations for you to service.

Most of the items you distribute to the grocery and convenience stores on your route will be impulse items located near the cash register. You simply periodically visit each store on your route and keep their shelves stocked with your items.
Mr. Checkout will provide you with valuable supplier contacts, excellent on-the-job training, and account location services assisting you in building your wholesale distribution business.

Mr Checkout has access to thousands of deeply discounted everyday items found in every convenience store, dollar store, grocery store and drug store. Energy drinks, candy, energy shots, health & beauty aids, energy bars, lighters, medicines, batteries, vitamins, film, DVD's, air fresheners, incense, general merchandise, small electronics and more.

Several national accounts use Mr. Checkout to service their locations including Walgreens, CVS Stores and Wal-Mart. That means instant business for you.
