Hope & Wholesale is a mission‑focused grocery wholesaler serving residents and organizations throughout Harford County and Baltimore County. Part of the Char Hope Foundation Inc., the business operates out of Forest Hill, Maryland, offering deeply discounted food products and supplies through both in‑store shopping and an online store.
The business was founded with the goal of helping charities and nonprofits access food and supplies at reduced costs by purchasing overstock, near‑dated, and close‑out products from wholesalers and distributors. This allows partner organizations such as Elks Clubs, VFWs, Moose Lodges, assisted living facilities, church groups, and local schools to stretch their fundraising dollars further for events and programs. Families looking to save on groceries can also shop the inventory, which changes weekly as new items come in.
Hope & Wholesale is more than a discount food outlet. Every purchase customers make supports the broader mission of the Char Hope Foundation. According to the website, buying products at Hope & Wholesale helps save the lives of individuals fighting addictions through associated nonprofit work.
The store also provides guidance on determining quantities for events and staying within budget and food cost guidelines. Staff are available to answer questions, offer advice on food preparation, and help customers plan purchases for fundraisers or community gatherings.
Hope & Wholesale operates Wednesday through Saturday with varying hours and is located at 121A Industry Lane, Suite 7, Forest Hill, MD 21050. Customers can call ahead at 877‑668‑5431 for specific product inquiries or check the online store for newly listed items.
How the Community Can Support Hope & Wholesale
Visit the store during business hours to shop discounted groceries and supplies or support the mission by ordering through the online store. Because inventory rotates regularly, returning often increases the chance of finding items that meet your needs or nonprofit event plans. All purchases through Hope & Wholesale contribute to the broader mission of assisting people through nonprofit initiatives connected to the Char Hope Foundation.
