with the GroSource
Green Goods Program

  1. What are the advantages of the GroSource Program?
    GroSource is specifically for Gro Group's Independent Retailers to help boost their competitive position and maximize their profit margin. Growers who participate in the program offer maximum volume discounts for the individual Independent Retailer by combining multiple retailer purchases. 

    Benefits include:

    • Access to major national and regional growers

    • Wide selection of quality goods with no minimum purchase requirements

    • Immediate, off-invoice discounts and special net pricing

    • Payment terms of up to 75 days depending on the time of year

    • Coordination of sales orders - prompt response to all your shipment authorization requests

    • Centralized and timely billing through Gro Group - save time, no need to pay multiple vendors

  2. How does a GroSource participant know which Growers take part in the program?
    A participant will receive a Grower Listing and periodic updates from the Corporate office.

  3. How does a Grower know when a new retailer participates in the program?
    All Growers who take part in the program receive regular updates. We also request they send information about their program directly to participating retailers.

  4. How does a new participant establish a credit line?
    Gro Group Corporate works with the retailers to establish an individual credit line. Credit lines are reviewed and renewed annually. 

  5. How does a retailer place an order?
    Participants place orders directly with the individual Grower. Identifying yourself as a GroSource participant is important each time you place an order to ensure you receive the highest discounts and optimum payment terms. It will also ensure that the product is shipped to the retailer and the invoice is sent to Gro Group for processing.

  6. Who processes the retailer invoice?
    Growers send invoices directly to Gro Group Corporate. Gro Group processes Grower invoices and sends the retailer a GroSource invoice, along with backup from the Grower. As such, Gro Group is responsible for collecting payment from the retailer and making payment to the Grower. As a new participant, Gro Group Corporate walks a retailer through the invoicing process.

  7. How are discounts processed?
    Discounts are processed immediately "off invoice".

  8. What are the invoice payment terms through GroSource?
    The payment terms vary from Net 30 - Net 75, depending on the terms Gro Group receives from each Grower and the time of year.

  9. What payment options are available?
    GroSource participants can mail a check to the Corporate office or take advantage of our
     "E-Check" payment option.
