Run a shop? Carry Madeline's makers

Madeline's works with more than 200 independent makers: creameries, salumi makers, beekeepers, roasters, jam and hot sauce kitchens. Tell us what your shelves need and we will introduce you to makers who sell wholesale.

Make food? Getting onto these shelves

Start with the shops closest to you, bring samples and a one-page price sheet, and know your wholesale price before you walk in. These help: the wholesale price calculator, how to price food products for wholesale, where to sell artisan food online, and the directory of co-packers, kitchens, packaging suppliers and distributors. Madeline's also sets up wholesale ordering for makers, and lists makers on the marketplace.

Questions

How many natural and specialty grocers are in North Carolina?

This directory lists 38 independent natural and specialty grocers in North Carolina. National chains are left out.

Where does this list come from?

From OpenStreetMap, the open map that anyone can edit. We keep independent shops and leave out national chains. If a shop is missing or has closed, fix it on OpenStreetMap or send us a note through the form above and we will update it.

I make food. Will these shops buy from me?

Many will. Co-ops, cheese shops and country stores are where most small makers get their first wholesale accounts. Ask for the buyer, bring samples, and have a wholesale price that leaves the shop its margin.

Can I buy from small makers without going to a shop?

Yes. Madeline's is an online farmstand. Makers ship cheese, honey, preserves, coffee and more straight from their own kitchens and farms, one cart and one checkout.
