WHOLESALE OPTIONS
If you like what you see on these pages and are considering purchasing AGGRAND products in any significant quantities it makes sense to set yourself up with a wholesale program, which will save you an additional 25% off our retail prices. Our wholesale prices will often cut your costs by half compared to local retail outlets! If you only purchase small amounts of product it’s not worth spending the money for wholesale pricing. However, if you plan on purchasing 2-3 cases of product then already your savings will begin to overtake the initial wholesale fee. AMSOIL offers several wholesale options, and one of them will fit you best. If you are considering one, send us an email with any questions you may have and we will forward the most current wholesale price list to you.
It’s a wise idea to research who you want as your servicing dealer first, however, and allow him/her to assist you in getting set-up with an account that suits your needs. It’s much better to choose a committed dealer than get paired up with someone who doesn’t put any effort into servicing his customers. This way you can get timely assistance from someone who is experienced and wants to help. With this in mind, consider the following options:
Preferred Customer: This is an account option where a small annual fee gains you wholesale pricing. It then either lapses after one year or you can renew it again. This option is perhaps most suitable for individuals or households that purchase smaller to moderate amounts of product for personal use and have no interest in turning this into a business. In Canada the fee is $30.00 for 12 months, or $15.00 for a one time introductory six month period. In the U.S. the fee is $20.00 for one year, or $10.00 for the introductory six month period.
Commercial Account: This is a great option for businesses that use quantities of our product for personal and company use, but not resale, and who want wholesale pricing. Examples of such businesses would be excavating and fleet operations, or commercial entities such as farms. There is a minor one time $10.00 administration fee to set up a commercial account. AGGRAND charges the servicing dealer a fee when setting up accounts and we pass it on. A great benefit of this type of account is that once set up it’s permanent, with no further costs to keep it going.
Retail Account: This is the best option for retail businesses (like shops, garages, garden centers, etc.) that want wholesale pricing to resell to the public. Great examples of this are garages, service centers and auto parts stores, among others. There is a minor one time $10.00 administration fee to set up a commercial account. AGGRAND charges the servicing dealer when setting up accounts and we pass it on. A great benefit of this type of account is that it's permanent, with no further costs to keep it going. It also gains the account holder accumulated co-op credits with every purchase that can be applied to the purchase of any promotional and advertising materials/clothing (which expire one year from the date of purchase).

Dealership: This is an option for those who want wholesale prices but are also interested in the business side of selling AGGRAND. This option takes the most money to set-up, has the steepest learning curve with all the rules and requires the most effort to achieve success with. Yet it comes with unique bonuses like earning commission on all of your sales, on top of any retail markup you may earn. Please ask us for further details if you are considering this option.
We want to be very honest with you up front. A dealership is not a “get-rich-quick” thing. It will likely take much time and effort before you start seeing significant results. We don’t want to discourage anyone here, but we also want to be honest and not oversell this too. With a dealership you only have to work as hard at it as you like, but as with most things the more effort you put into this the more success you are likely to meet with in time. Good things are worth waiting for and Rome wasn’t built in a day. This will take time too, but I am here to assist my down-line as much as I can.
The cost to sign on as a dealer in Canada is $45.00 per year, with a one time, six month trial period that costs $22.50. The cost for an American Dealership is $30.00 per year, with a one time, six month trial that runs $15.00. There are also “bulk” renewal options to purchase more than one year at a time when it comes time to renew your dealership, which saves you a bit of money. And there are various packages that combine a business manual and/or a literature pack with your initial dealership fee.
With AGGRAND there are never minimum amounts you need to order to keep your account status, although shipping costs make it sensible to combine your orders as much as possible. I service all types of accounts and dealers from both the U.S. and Canada and would be happy to work with you. At any time you can change your account status to another if you meet the criterion. Anyone can start as a Preferred Customer and “upgrade” to a dealer in time if you would like, and vice versa.
We will do all we can to help should you choose to work with us, and like to allow people to work at their own speed and capacity. To do otherwise only stresses what should be a positive and mutually beneficial arrangement. We're low pressure.
