Wholesale America

UPA Wholesale America In today’s world, major retail chains and large wholesale conglomerates are buying up more and more independent distributors. This phenomenon doesn’t help anyone except the shareholders of these enormous companies.

Manufacturers are competing for an ever shrinking customer base. Distributors are finding it more difficult to compete against these chains who are sourcing an ever increasing number of products overseas.

UPA has implemented a plan to expand the wholesale marketplace across the country. We call it "Wholesale America". The formula gives UPA members the opportunity to open a branch or branches that would not otherwise be possible.

Backed by UPA these owners are supported with inventory, technology, systems, and procedures to reduce overhead and increase profits.

UPA feels strongly that it is in the best interest of the wholesale industry, to work proactively to increase the manufacturer's customer base, and to assist the wholesale distributor to grow in a highly competitive environment.

Together we can all benefit by working toward this goal.
