Common Questions
Who can order from Premium Choice?
Wholesale distributors, retail grocers, restaurants and foodservice operators, and manufacturers looking to become suppliers.
Do you serve buyers outside Chicago?
Yes — nationally across the United States and into Canada, in addition to our concentrated Chicago and Midwest network.
Does Premium Choice carry Malaysian food products?
Yes — items associated with Malaysian cuisine run across several categories. See our Malaysian Food Products page.
What is TEMPA™?
Our own USA-made spice line — the one brand we manufacture directly. Learn more on the TEMPA™ page.
How can a manufacturer become a supplier?
Submit a Supplier Inquiry through our Become a Supplier page — each inquiry is reviewed individually.
Is there a minimum order size?
Order sizing is confirmed directly with each buyer rather than set at a single published minimum — see Wholesale, Retail or Foodservice for the channel that fits your business.
What makes Premium Choice different from a general food distributor?
We operate as both importer and distributor under one relationship, sourcing directly from manufacturers rather than through an intermediary — which keeps the supply chain shorter and pricing more competitive.

More Questions
Does Premium Choice import directly from manufacturers?
Yes — we build direct relationships with manufacturers rather than sourcing through intermediary importers, which keeps the supply chain shorter.
What's the difference between importing and distribution?
Importing covers bringing products into the country; distribution covers getting them to buyers afterward. We handle both under one relationship. See Import & Distribution.
Can I order across multiple categories on one account?
Yes — most accounts order across several of our nine categories rather than a single product line.
How is product quality and authenticity verified?
Every manufacturer and product is reviewed for authenticity, quality and reliability before it joins our catalog.
Does Premium Choice serve the Chicago and Midwest region specifically?
Yes — we’re based in Chicago with a concentrated buyer network throughout the Midwest, alongside our national network. See Chicago & Midwest.

Why Buyers Choose Premium Choice
One Partner, Not Several
Sourcing, importing and distribution are all handled under one relationship, so you’re not coordinating separate suppliers.
Direct Manufacturer Relationships
We source directly rather than through intermediary importers, keeping the supply chain shorter and pricing competitive.
Flexible Order Sizing
Order volume and delivery are worked out directly with each buyer rather than fit into a single fixed template.
National Reach From a Chicago Base
Positioned near major U.S. freight infrastructure, with distribution reaching the full USA and Canada.
A Few More Practical Questions
How is pricing determined?
Pricing is confirmed directly with each buyer based on the products and volume requested — we don’t publish a single flat price list, since order mix varies so much buyer to buyer.
How reliable is delivery scheduling?
We manage import compliance, warehousing and delivery under one relationship rather than handing shipments between separate parties, which is part of what keeps delivery timing consistent for recurring accounts.
Do I need to commit to a long-term contract to order?
No — most accounts start with a single Request a Quote and move to recurring orders naturally once pricing and product fit are confirmed, not through a mandatory long-term commitment upfront.
Can a small, single-location business order from Premium Choice?
Yes — our retail and foodservice accounts range from single-location independent stores and restaurants to larger multi-location operations, and order sizing is worked out to fit either.
What happens after I submit a Request a Quote?
Our team reviews your request and follows up directly to confirm pricing, availability and next steps — there’s no automated quote generation, a person looks at every inquiry.
A Note on Quality & Sourcing
Every manufacturer we work with is vetted for authenticity, quality and reliability before their products join our catalog — we’re not simply reselling whatever is available at the lowest cost. That standard applies equally to imported products and to our own domestically-manufactured TEMPA™ spice line, where we control production directly. Learn more about our sourcing and distribution approach on the About page.
