How to Buy Coffee Wholesale

You can save a lot of money by purchasing coffee in bulk. Whether you own a business that uses or sells coffee or you're an individual who consumes a lot of coffee, buying coffee in bulk can be easy and rewarding. It not only saves you money, it will cut down on the waste created by purchasing coffee by the pound. Most wholesale coffee comes in 5-pound bags that can easily be reused for trash, old coffee grounds or to hold more new beans.

Instructions

But at Local Coffee Shop

1. Talk to your local coffee shop owner about purchasing coffee directly from him or her.

2. Ask if you can make a deal with the store manager by committing to purchase a certain amount of coffee on a weekly or monthly basis.

3. Ask if you can prepay for the quantity of coffee you'll buy. This way, the coffee shop owner is able to make money immediately, without having to give the product to you all at once. It creates a win-win situation.

Buy Direct

1. Search the Internet for coffee roasters and coffee distributors that are either in your local area (which will save on shipping) or in another area of the country.

2. Search the site for wholesale prices. If you don't find them, call the roaster or distributor directly and talk with them about their wholesale prices.

3. Be prepared to purchase a minimum of 5 pounds, as most roasters will not sell the coffee at a wholesale price below 5 pounds.

Buy at Grocery Store

1. Check the coffee aisle at the grocery store. Most grocery stores sell coffee in bulk, where you can measure out how much coffee you want in a bag.

2. Compare the prices of the pre-bagged coffee with the wholesale price to determine if you will save money.

3. Place the bag provided under the coffee bean spout and pull the lever. Determine how much you want to use and weigh it out.
