Do you need a wholesale account to buy dog chews for your business? No. Anyone can buy our bulk bully stick packs (50 to 200 count) with no account and free shipping to US48 street addresses. A wholesale account makes sense once you reorder regularly and your orders reach $500 or more, because approved resellers get wholesale pricing and 400-count wholesale packs.
We hear this question every week from pet stores, groomers, trainers and market sellers. The honest answer depends on how much you sell and how often you reorder. Here's a simple way to decide.
What's the difference?
| Bulk packs on ValuePetSupplies.com | Wholesale account | |
|---|---|---|
| Account needed | No | Yes, apply and get approved |
| Pack sizes | 50 to 200 count | Wholesale packs, including 400 count |
| Pricing | Posted on the site, e.g. thin 6" 100-count at $149.99 ($1.50 per stick) | Wholesale pricing, shown when you sign in |
| Minimum order | None | $500 per order |
| Shipping | Free to US48 street addresses | Free to US48 street addresses |
| Best for | Testing, small shops, mixed sizes | Steady reorders and growing volume |
When should you stick with bulk packs?
- You're testing a new category. A thin 6" 100-count or medium 6" 100-count pack tells you what your customers buy without tying up much cash.
- Your orders run under $500. Bulk packs have no minimum, so you can order exactly what you need.
- You want to order today. No application, no waiting. Check out like any other order.
When does a wholesale account pay off?
- You reorder the same chews every few weeks. Wholesale pricing adds up across every reorder.
- Your orders regularly reach $500. That's the wholesale minimum, so you're already there.
- You sell 200 or more of a size a month. That's about the point where 400-count wholesale packs start to make sense.
- You carry several chew types. One wholesale order can cover bully sticks, collagen, yak cheese, ears and more.
How do you apply for a wholesale account?
- Fill out the application on our wholesale application page. Have your business name, address and how you sell (store, salon, market booth, online) handy.
- Our team reviews it. We may reach out if we have questions about your business.
- Once approved, sign in at wholesale.valuepetsupplies.com to see wholesale pricing and place orders of $500 or more.
A smart path many shops follow
- Start with one or two bulk packs to see what sells.
- Move your best seller up to a 200-count pack to lower your cost per stick (medium 6" drops from $2.16 to $1.99).
- When reorders become routine and your orders reach $500, apply for wholesale.
Selling chews pre-bagged? Our resale packs come in ready-to-sell 5, 10 and 20 count bags, so you skip the bagging.
