Open To The Public Restaurant Supply Store In Philly Area


Recommended Posts

Hi, does anyone know of any Open To The Public Restaurant Supply Stores In The Philly Area?

There was one in North Wales called Rotel (I think) years ago that stopped selling to the public.

I want to buy a few things that I cannot get in stores...

Anyone know any?

TIA

Restaurant Depot in Manayunk has food, although it's a lot of frozen stuff, but you need to have "proof" of working in a restaurant. If you have a friend that works in a restaurant with a pay stub or proof you work for a non-profit I think that will get you in the door. Otherwise, you can buy restaurant sized cans/boxes/jars at any of the wholesale clubs like BJ's, Sam's Club, Costco, etc. What is it you need, exactly??

If you need commercial dishwasher detergent/chemicals call Termac. They're the biggest suppliers in the area. If you need home dishwasher detergent the wholesale clubs will have that in huge buckets for you. Costco carries Whirl according to my Google search.

D'oh. Sorry about that. I Googled Whirl (since I didn't know what it was) and one of the entries was for ordering via Costco. I didn't investigate it any further beyond that since I don't need a tub of it myself.

And I really am not certain at all what's so "special" about any detergent, other than it hopefully does what it's supposed to. If you're using it to build bombs or make illegal substances, perhaps it's best you don't answer me here in a public forum. In fact, I wouldn't want to know if that's the case... :unsure:
