Welcome to Foodclub!

This account setup wizard contains a few pages of simple questions about your buying club / cooperative. Your answers will be used to configure a Foodclub account that is tailored to your needs. When finished, you will have a ready-to-use online ordering system which your group can use to enter individual orders, which are automatically organized into overall group orders to send to wholesale vendors.

Vendor / distributor selection

Choose the food vendor (company/distributor/cooperative/farm) you will be using Foodclub to order from. Foodclub provides several preconfigured vendors, for which up-to-date product lists are maintained to make your life easier. If you will be ordering from one of these, it is a simple one-step process of choosing which one, and you'll be ordering in no time.

But since there are thousands of small distributors and local farms out there, we do not attempt to control who you buy from. If your vendor is not listed here, simply choose "Other" and you will be able to configure the vendor yourself.

Note that choosing the vendor here does not open an account with them. You must already have an account open with them to place orders -- this process just tells Foodclub that you are going to order from them. If you do not yet have an account with them, you can still use Foodclub as if you do^(*), just to play around and see how the process works.

Also note that Foodclub supports ordering from more than one vendor. Indeed many users order from 3 to 5 and even 10 to 20 different vendors using the Foodclub system. This page simply allows you to choose the first vendor -- you can add more later.
