Wholesale Dollar Store Items
When choosing items for your dollar store inventory, you should aim first for
the widest possible variety of merchandise. Then take your location and the
demographics of your customers into account. This will influence which types of
items you might want to stock more of and display more prominently.
At Dollar Store Merchandise, we are experts in knowing what you need to stock.
If you are just opening your business, we can not only offer advice, but we also
have some start-up deals that will give you the density and variety you need at
the best price. We also offer specific groupings, such as our complete cosmetics
selection--more than 3,000 items with a floor display and free shipping. And of
course, we are your best resource for restocking an established store.
Remember that dollar store sales are
driven by impulse purchases. The low price means that customers are more likely
to buy something that catches their eye, but isn't on any list of things they
need. Be aware of traffic patterns and be sure to make it easy for shoppers to
see everything you have in stock, not just what they came in for.
Store location will also influence what items you'll carry, and in what
proportions. Senior citizens will want different merchandise than middle school
students. Carrying a basic stock of groceries will bring in customers in
lower-income neighborhoods. In middle-class neighborhoods, convenience is key,
so be certain to have adequate parking and staff, so customers can pop in and
out quickly.
