Chips and Crackers

Pick popular wholesale crackers and chips to enhance your business
By Sharisa Lewis When buying different brands of crackers or potato chips, do the taste test. Order a variety of samples or smaller portions to test how they work with your recipes or toppings. See which chips and crackers are popular with your customers before narrowing down your manufacturer or wholesale distributor.
 

Before selecting a chip manufacturer, analyze your business needs with these questions:

1. How many people will you generally be serving wholesale crackers or chips?

2. How many different brands of crackers should you keep in stock? Which brands of wholesale potato chips and crackers are most popular?

3. What is your budget for ordering from a cracker or potato chip manufacturer?

Narrow down favorite brands of wholesale potato chips or crackers

Do your customers or employees prefer pretzels, Cheetos, Bugles, tortilla chips or other types? Keep track of what brands go the fastest in your business.
Try: The Betty Mills Company has a good sampling of wholesale chips and crackers. Many popular brands have a site where you can buy their crackers or chips, such as Cheez-It, Keebler and Mission Foods.

Compare prices of wholesale crackers and chips

Browse sites and catalogs of potato chip and cracker manufacturers. Many sell their products through wholesale distributors. You may have to visit their outlets or call for price comparisons.
Try: Nationwide Candy lists popular brands of wholesale chips you can price compare. Sam's Club lists prices of their bulk snacks, such as candy, crackers or chips.

Consider healthier options when picking a cracker or potato chip manufacturer

Ask for 100-calorie pack snacks or baked chips or low-fat crackers. There are lots of healthier options on the market that your customers may demand. Some customers may have dietary needs or concerns with your product that you can ask the cracker or potato chips manufacturer about.
