About General Wholesale

General Wholesale, the trade name of 17656866 Canada Corp., is an Ontario-based wholesale distributor of home appliances, founded in 2026 to supply retailers, property managers, builders, hospitality operators and institutions across the province with brand-name products at trade pricing.

Our story

A dependable, transparent source for brand-name appliances

General Wholesale exists because Ontario businesses that buy appliances in volume deserve a supplier built around how they actually work.

Property managers turning over units, retailers stocking a floor, builders finishing a project and hospitality operators furnishing rooms all need the same things: recognized brands, new in-carton stock, clear trade pricing and delivery that arrives when it is promised. Too often that means juggling several suppliers, retail-style pricing and unclear lead times.

We set out to put full-size kitchen appliances, room comfort products and small appliances in one catalogue, priced by quote so every buyer receives pricing that reflects their volume and product mix. There is no online checkout and no retail markup — buyers build a list, request a quote and receive an itemized response with availability and lead times.

We are a new company, and we intend to earn the trust of every account through consistent, well-documented service.

Our mission

To be Ontario's most dependable trade source for home appliances

We supply recognized-brand appliances — new, factory-sealed and backed by the manufacturer's warranty — to businesses across Ontario at transparent, quote-based trade pricing, with logistics and account support that make repeat purchasing simple.

We do this by operating a clean, safe, well-organized warehouse; by documenting every order clearly; and by treating each customer relationship as a long-term commitment.

What we do

Distribution, pricing, logistics and support in one place

Our business is straightforward by design. We source appliances from recognized manufacturers and their authorized channels, hold them in our Ontario warehouse and supply them to trade customers.

Product distribution

Twelve appliance categories — refrigeration, cooking, microwaves, dishwashers, air conditioning, heating, laundry, air quality and small appliances — from recognized brands, supplied new and in the original carton.

Quote-based trade pricing

Every order is priced by quote, so pricing reflects your volume, product mix and delivery requirements. Itemized quotes list model numbers, quantities, availability and lead times.

Logistics

Appointment-based warehouse pickup or scheduled delivery across Ontario. Multi-site and multi-unit orders can be consolidated so everything arrives together, on a date that suits your project.

Account support

Trade accounts receive a consistent point of contact who understands their product mix and reorder cycle, along with clear order documentation and help with specifications and warranty questions.

How we operate

Our operating standards

We run a low-complexity, business-to-business distribution operation. The standards below describe how we handle, store and account for inventory every day.

Inventory

Our inventory consists of new, factory-sealed appliances in their original manufacturer cartons. We do not sell used, open-box, refurbished or scratch-and-dent stock. Every unit is tracked by model and serial number from receipt through to dispatch, and serial numbers are recorded on order documentation.

Storage and handling

Cartons are stored palletized on racking in a dry, secured warehouse and are moved with pallet jacks and a forklift by trained staff. Receiving and outbound staging take place at the loading dock. Pickups are scheduled by appointment so the floor stays organized and uncongested.

What we do not do

General Wholesale is a distributor, not a service centre. We do not repair, refurbish, disassemble or modify appliances on site, and we do not handle refrigerants — refrigeration systems remain factory-sealed and products are distributed exactly as manufactured. There are no hazardous processes in our operation and no retail foot traffic. We serve businesses only.

Housekeeping and safety

We maintain clear aisles, tidy staging areas and routine housekeeping, and we follow fire-safety practices appropriate to a palletized warehouse. Cartons stay closed and stacked to the manufacturer's guidance, and access to the warehouse floor is limited to staff and scheduled visitors.

Product safety & compliance

Certified products, distributed as manufactured

We supply appliances built for the Canadian market and pass them to buyers unaltered, together with the manufacturer's certification, warranty and documentation.

Canadian certification marks

Appliances in our catalogue carry the manufacturer's applicable Canadian certification marks — for example cUL, cETL or CSA, as applied by the manufacturer for the product type. Because we do not open, modify or service units, products reach the buyer exactly as certified by the manufacturer.

Manufacturer's warranty

Every unit is sold with the manufacturer's warranty, which passes through to the buyer. Model and serial numbers are recorded on your order documentation, so warranty registration and any service claim through the manufacturer's network is straightforward.

ENERGY STAR® and documentation

ENERGY STAR® models are identified in the catalogue to help buyers meet efficiency requirements. Specification sheets, owner's manuals and installation guides are available on request for any listed product.

Our values

How we intend to do business
