Sold in bulk
Stock moves in cases, multipacks and larger pack sizes rather than single units. That is the whole point of buying wholesale: you order the quantity you will actually get through.

How it works
What a cash & carry actually is
Maqbools is a cash and carry in Edinburgh. If you have not shopped at one before, here is what that model means in practice.
Pay and carry
The name is the method. You choose what you need, pay for it, and take it away on the same visit, rather than placing an order and waiting on a delivery.
Trade and retail buyers
Cash and carries serve businesses restocking their shelves and kitchens, and households buying in bulk for a large family, a function or a group.
Who it's for
The kind of buyer a cash & carry suits
Wholesale buying works for anyone who gets through volume. These are the customers cash and carries typically serve.
Restaurants, takeaways and cafés
Kitchens that buy by the case rather than the single unit.
Convenience and corner shops
Independent retailers restocking shelves in the quantities they need.
Community groups and events
Catering for a function, a gathering or a group where quantity matters.
Households buying in bulk
Large families and batch cooks who would rather buy once, in quantity.

Online ordering is planned
It is not available yet. This website is information only — there is no online shop here, nothing can be added to a basket, and no order or payment can be taken through this site.
When online ordering does launch, it will appear on this page. Until then, buying is in person, the way a cash and carry normally works.
