Wholesale Pricing, Published

Most popcorn companies make you fill out a form to find out what a bag costs. We would rather you know before you call, so you can decide if the math works for your store.

Price to your location. In a Phoenix grocery aisle, $5.99 makes sense. In a museum store, a park visitor center, or a resort lobby shop, $7.99 is not a stretch, and nobody comparison shops a bag of popcorn on vacation. At $5.99 you make 46.7 percent. At $7.99 you make 60.1 percent on the identical case. We do not police your retail price.

Find the Cactus

Every photo below is a real store on a real day. Your eye lands in the same place every time.

That is the whole argument for shelf appeal, and it is not one we can win with words. Six colors, one cactus, and a stand-up bag that keeps its shape after the shelf gets picked over. Put us next to the chips, next to the candy, next to the other popcorn, and customers still find us.

We might be underselling you. We suggest $5.99 to $7.99. Two Arizona retailers priced it above that on their own, and we never asked them to. Read the tags in the photos.

One bag. Every kind of store.

There is no grocery bag, no gift shop bag, and no stadium bag. It is the same case pack in every photo above. Whatever kind of room you are merchandising, it has already worked in a room like it.

Why Retailers Choose Cactus Corn

Since 1998 we have been popping gourmet kettle corn in Phoenix, Arizona. Every batch is made by hand. Last season we moved more than 25,000 bags through our Arizona Cardinals partnership at State Farm Stadium, and we have a long run at Chase Field with the Arizona Diamondbacks. We know what sells at a counter because we have stood behind one for 28 years.

Southwest Flavors Nobody Else Has

Prickly Pear is the one visitors photograph. White Cheddar Jalapeño is the repeat purchase. Roasted Street Corn is the one that surprises people.

Every bag is popped fresh in our Phoenix kitchen. No factory lines, no mass production. Your customers taste the difference.

Strong Shelf Appeal

Bold, colorful packaging that catches the eye. Our bags pop on retail displays and gift shelves, driving impulse purchases.
