The Wholesale Grocery Newswire

A Service of Banana Box Wholesale Grocery and Leading Edge Radio Network

The companies below are not in any way affiliated with Banana Box Wholesale Grocery. This newswire is provided as a service to those in the wholesale grocery business who do not want to make a mistake of ordering product from fly by night or less than honest companies. Sadly, we have seen companies and individuals taken for thousands of dollars. We wish they had opted to do business with us but people have a free will and we don’t twist anyone’s arm. I’m sure those that lost their money wished we had. 

We offer this information as a service to our customers who trust us. We place the information here so you are not ordering from companies who are out of business or who have potentially scammed unsuspecting out of their money.

Wholesale Amerxxx in Florida faces serious complaints from customers who wired money to purchase wholesale goods but never got them. BEWARE – Not only to the customers who ordered and didn’t get what they paid for but also to the perpetrator. 

Bank Wires sent from $1,700 to over $10,000. People never got the ordered goods. BEWARE and always proceed with caution. 

Our investigators discovered they’ve done this many times before,

since 2014. One customer paid for 6 pallets which he never received and filed a police report. We’re certain they’ll be getting a visit from the Feds before long. 

Some people don’t realize that when you use the bank wires and steal a customers money and don’t provide the goods, it is not only fraud,

but also wire fraud and theft. 

Also, the business below appears to be out of business.

On another unrelated note, another scammer fraudulently used the name Banana Box Wholesale Grocery and scammed a company out of $24,000 in 2009. Her name was Angie Green and her partner was Mario. BEWARE.

What is cherry picking?

That's when suppliers go through

and pull out the good stuff and sell

you the rest. We do not do that! Our

loads come direct

from the suppliers and/or reclaim

centers.


What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept Bank Wires and checks BUT WE DO NOT ACCEPT credit cards.

have truckloads shipped to me?

a 53' truck by hand?

With 7 people, a full load of 1152 to 1248 boxes

can be unloaded in 2 hours. Please do

not expect the truck driver to do any

have enough help.
