Mr Checkout is a group of independent grocery distributors and wagon-jobbers working at national scale.[4] The company supports approximately 40,000 independent retailers across the USA, Canada and the Caribbean.[2][3][5]

History

The company bridges the gap between big box retailers and new products. Their independent distributors, wagon jobbers and merchandisers have existing routes with over 40,000 independent convenience stores, grocery stores and specialty shops throughout the United States of America, Canada and the Caribbean.[6]

In 2010 the United States Census Independent Grocers Project contracted Mr. Checkout to place signage and promotional material in 10,000 hispanic grocery stores around the United States.[7] From that program Mr. Checkout developed its Blitz Program which can test products on busy checkout counters or in coolers in high volume grocery / convenience stores 'coast-to-coast'.[6][8] The stores are serviced weekly to bi-weekly by wagon-jobbers / distributors that provide full-service and direct-store-delivery.[7]

Mr. Checkout signed a distribution agreement with Gamma Pharmaceuticals in 2009.[9] Some of the products that Mr. Checkout has recently presented to its network of independent distributors include: Totally Hemp Crazy Inc for Rocky Mountain High Beverage Drinks,[10][11] Tenga, Co. to distribute Tenga Pocket[1] and MedTrainer.[12]
