How to Order
A Step-by-Step Guide to Sourcing Wholesale with Skus Food
At Skus Food, we operate on a B2B wholesale model built to provide competitive volume pricing without the constraints of rigid retail checkout carts. Because commodity rates, case quantities, and shipping logistics vary based on order size, our ordering workflow uses a direct quotation process.
Follow the simple steps below to browse, request pricing, and secure your order.
Step 1: Browse the Online Catalog
Explore our comprehensive catalog of pantry staples, specialty imported beverages, commercial cooking oils, and organic snacks. Each listing includes complete product details, packaging specifications, unit sizes, and case counts to help you select the exact inventory your business needs.
- Review product specifications and packaging formats.
- Determine the approximate volume or case counts your business requires.
- Note any seasonal or high-demand products needed for ongoing supply.
Step 2: Submit a Price Inquiry / Request a Quote
Instead of standard retail payment buttons, each product page features an “Ask for Price” or “Request a Quote” option.
- Add the products you wish to purchase into your quote checklist.
- Specify your requested quantities (cases, cartons, or pallets).
- Include your delivery requirements, location details, and any timeline constraints.
- Submit your inquiry directly through the portal.
Step 3: Receive Your Custom Wholesale Quote
Once your request is received, our sourcing and logistics team evaluates your product mix and order volume to calculate the most competitive rate available.
- We apply volume-based tiered discounts and assess the most efficient logistics plan.
- A clear, formal quotation containing transparent unit pricing, total costs, estimated delivery times, and payment terms will be delivered directly to your inbox.
- Review the quote and confirm whether you would like to proceed or adjust item quantities.
Step 4: Finalize Payment & Order Processing
After you review and accept the proposal, our team confirms your order and prepares the transaction documents.
- Confirm the final invoice and select your agreed B2B payment method.
- Your order is sent directly to our fulfillment and warehouse queue.
- Inventory is picked, packed, and palletized according to commercial freight and handling standards.
Step 5: Fast Dispatch & Regional Delivery
Once prepared, your shipment is coordinated for prompt transit or local warehouse pickup across New York City and surrounding areas.
- You will receive dispatch updates and delivery coordination details.
- Shipments are handled with proper care to ensure all products arrive in pristine condition, ready for retail shelving or commercial kitchen use.
Important Wholesale Ordering Policies
- Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ): Certain specialty or heavy bulk items may have minimum order limits per case or pallet to unlock the best wholesale pricing tiers.
- Price Validity: Because food market values and freight rates fluctuate, custom quotes are typically guaranteed for a specified window outlined on your invoice.
- Custom Product Requests: If you need a specific food or beverage item that is not currently listed in our catalog, our sourcing team can locate it through our regional supply network.
