About Off The Shelf Reps:

How We Got Started

Originally based in the Big Apple, our suppliers took notice when their sales in Whole Foods grew exponentially where we represented them. “Hurry up and expand,” they said. Slowly we added representatives in Mid Atlantic, Florida, Midwest, North Atlantic and Rocky Mountain. Last year we partnered with a group in California and grew to 25 reps nationwide and this year have added the Pacific Northwest states of Oregon and Washington. Whole Foods Global continues to be one of our biggest clients and we continue to grow with their new owners Amazon. Exhibiting at two natural products shows each year (Natural Products Expo East and Expo West), we have seen our business increase to include major retailers such as Vitamin Cottage, MOM’s Organic Market, Lassen’s, Fresh Thyme Market and independent natural stores across the country.
