Costco Business Center

Costco's business-focused warehouses and delivery service

Overview

Costco Business Center is the business-buying format of Costco Wholesale Corporation. Costco’s annual report describes its business centers as carrying items tailored for food services, convenience stores and offices, offering walk-in shopping and deliveries, and counts them within its total warehouse count[2]. Costco operated 939 warehouses worldwide at 30 August 2026, and reported total net sales of US$297.2 billion for fiscal 2026[2].

Access requires Costco membership. The annual membership fee is US$65 in the US, including a free household card, and Executive members pay an extra fee to earn a reward of generally 2% on qualified purchases[2]. Costco reported 84.1 million paid members at the end of fiscal 2026 and a renewal rate of 92.3% in the US and Canada[2].

The delivery website lists categories including appliances, beverages, candy and snacks, disposables, grocery, janitorial, office, restaurant supplies and tobacco, and offers volume sales for domestic or export buyers and resale and tobacco services[6]. The format suits restaurants, convenience stores and offices that need regular restocking. It is less suitable for retailers seeking unique products, since it sells mainly national brands and Costco’s own labels in fixed pack sizes.
