Boy do I wish I had Smart & Final... and not just for Dodger Dogs.

Dodger Dogs / Distributor Help... (MaganaFoods)

Tue, 29 Jun 2010 21:24:45 GMT

Hello Everyone. I have been diligently working on setting up my new hot dog business for a couple of months now. I live in Santa Fe, New Mexico but I am originally from Southern California. As a SoCal native, naturally I feel that a grilled Dodger Dog is one tasty thing. Dodger Dogs are made by Farmer John (Hormel) and are easy to find in Southern California. Many Club stores there even have them in bulk. But getting them in New Mexico is a different story.

I've talked to my local grocery store, club store, and some local distributors and keep coming up with nothing. Even though many of them carry other Farmer John products, no one seems able or willing to get me Dodger Dogs. Worst case I'll just sell Nathan's, but I'd really like to get my hands on some Dodger Dogs... any suggestions?

I've called Hormel and Farmer John only to be referred to a distributor and then only to be told they can't get them. Same story with my Supermarkets and Club stores. I'd really appreciate some advice.
