Orders &
Guidelines
Our minimum for all orders is $350 excluding tobacco. This minimum must be met for the order to be processed.
What's the new ordering rule for the clients to ensure accurate and timely deliveries?
All customers will need to use their current speed sheets to place orders. This will keep everything organized and ensure you get the right products, amounts and in a sequential order to meet deadlines. We will no longer accept orders typed out with just item numbers. As we move to a digital platform our speedsheet must be used to help expedite the process.
How to Order
New Customers
Download our speedsheet, enter your order and then email the speedsheet to orders@gpdistributing.ca.
Returning Customers
Enter your order into the customized speedsheet and then email the Order Desk. If you need a new or updated speedsheet, please let us know.
Order guides and sales flyers can be found at here or by contacting the order desk at orders@gpdistributing.ca.
Order Confirmation
Once your order is entered into the system you will receive a confirmation email with details including the items, quantities, approximate prices, and the delivery/pick-up date.
Product Availability
If an item is out of stock, we will notify you via email or phone. You may choose to backorder the item, substitute with a similar product, or cancel the item entirely. If no response is received by the end of the day, the missing item will not be backordered or substituted.
