Good Reputation and reviews
The easiest way to see if a candy wholesaler will be a good fit for your candy business is by reading the reviews.
Are other people reporting that this candy wholesaler has good business practices? Are other people's experiences lining up with the experiences you hope to have when choosing a candy wholesaler to work with?
Check out how many reviews there are this is a good indicator of the size of the wholesale operation you're dealing with.
Take a look at the negative reviews and keep in mind not everybody has something positive to say. Pay attention to how the wholesaler responded to the negative review. Have they attempted to make it right with that customer? If that were you would you be satisfied with that resolution?
If a majority of the reviews are positive and there appears to be good communication when a problem arises, it's time to look at some other areas of the candy wholesaler you're investigating.
How long has the candy wholesaler been in business?
A candy wholesaler that has been established for a lengthy amount of time is a good sign. It means they’re committed to their business and won’t leave you in a pickle by closing up shop and moving on. They’ve also dealt with a larger variety of issues that may arise when sourcing candy and snacks and getting them to sellers.
A long time wholesaler will be incredibly knowledgeable about the products they carry, what is hot and trending in the confectionery industry, and how to market these snacks and treats to the public.
