Why Become A Partner of DCI?

Are you looking to sell more product? Having trouble getting your "Branded product listed"?

DCI is a national organization of independent grocers that foster collaborative selling relationships between its members, manufacturers, and key stakeholders in the Canadian grocery industry. DCI provides the Supplier Partner access to over a thousand stores, with sales in the billions. DCI does not have its own private label and promotes "Branded Products".
