Save With Continental Wholesale

August 1, 2011 by Publisher

Dealing in truckloads and pallet-lots of store liquidations, shelf pulls, store closeouts, and excess inventory from some of the largest retailers in the world, independent retailers can find savings and profits for their stores at Continental Wholesale, LLC. Joel Orr, owner, believes in keeping business simple, saying, “We sell for pennies on the dollar and only sell by the semi load.” Among the products available are sporting goods, electronics, tools and furniture. Retailers can expect Orr’s pennies on the dollar deal with the purchase of furniture loads. For example, furniture loads worth $40,000 to $60,000, cost only $6,000. Orr adds, “Most loads will run between $6,000 to $12,000, depending on what company the product came from and what’s on the load.”

Dealing in Truckloads and Pallet Lots: ‘Enormous’ Value

Since inventory is large and frequently changing, Continental Wholesale does not offer an updated listing on its website. Instead, customers and even walk-ins are welcomed to a warehouse in Hampton, IA, home of Continental Wholesale, to view the available loads. Orr says, “Our number one priority is customer service. We take pride in working one on one with our customers, to provide the merchandise needed at the lowest cost possible, so huge profits can be made.” For those buyers unable to visit the company warehouse, sales representatives are available to provide manifest listings and product pictures. Retailers will find the majority of products listed on the company website are salvage loads, made up of a variety of products sold in bulk at a small percentage of retail or wholesale pricing, or items which can no longer be sold at regular retail prices.

Retailers purchasing from Continental Wholesale are advised not to use stores’ names or names of any of the store brands in advertising, or in the selling and representation of the products. Orr notes, “Merchandise is sold as is. All sales are final.” Continental Wholesale is concerned with customers’ satisfaction, and prides itself on working to supply the very best merchandise and service. Orr emphasizes, “We would rather have one customer buy 100 times from us than have 100 customers buy only once.”

Beyond semi loads and customer service, Continental Wholesale also uses its resources to run the TLC program. This program was developed to provide assistance to those agencies serving individuals with vocational disabilities. Orr explains, “Anybody that wants to start a business to make money for their cause, Continental Wholesale will work with them on advertising, pricing, and leasing; basically help them get their business going.” Orr believes in being proactive in creating jobs, especially by starting new businesses. He adds, “The economic recovery will ultimately depend on the small business person.”
