Read the guideWhat you'll get
Whole Foods Market's page for new suppliers: register for the supplier portal, confirm your email and complete a potential-supplier form, with a warning that it receives too many inquiries to promise a reply. It also describes its Local and Emerging Accelerator Program for small brands and what a participant's business must meet, such as liability insurance and production in a certified commercial facility; parts of the page refer to past application dates, so check which are current.
Do this week
Make a checklist of the page's requirements, such as liability insurance, certified commercial production and sourcing, and mark which ones your business meets today.
