<h2>FAQs</h2>

<h3>What’s the suggested margin for gourmet food products?</h3>

<h3>I don’t currently stock food in my store. Where should I start?</h3>
<p>If you are new to stocking gourmet food, it can be helpful to begin with shelf-stable items such as jarred, dried, or packaged foods. These products typically have longer shelf lives and do not require refrigeration.</p>
<p>You may also want to explore curated bundles, which allow you to test multiple products from one supplier.</p>

<h3>Can I buy wholesale fruit and vegetables through CREOATE?</h3>
<p>No. At the moment, fresh food items such as fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, and eggs are not available on the platform.</p>
<p>CREOATE currently focuses on packaged and speciality foods that are suitable for retail environments.</p>

<h3>Why buy gourmet food wholesale online?</h3>
