Wholesale Club is a chain of warehouse clubs owned by Loblaw Companies with locations across Canada. The chain was formerly named The Real Canadian Wholesale Club, a reference to Loblaw's hypermarket banner Real Canadian Superstore (both banners originated in Western Canada).
While the primary target consumers are business owners in the food service industry, the stores are also open to the general public.[1] Several locations of the chain, particularly in smaller Saskatchewan markets (which still operate under the Real Canadian Wholesale Club name), downplay this focus and promote themselves as general wholesale grocery stores with amenities similar to other Loblaw banners (such as pharmacies and gas bars), and a limited selection of general merchandise, as an alternative to other common Loblaw banners in small markets (such as Extra Foods and Your Independent Grocer).
Stores
There are stores in Alberta (7), British Columbia (9), Manitoba (1), New Brunswick (1), Newfoundland (1), Nova Scotia (3), Quebec (11, as "Club Entrepôt"), Ontario (20) and Saskatchewan (5)
