Costco Business Center

Oh my God I love this Costco. It really helps me to get all my business supplies without long lines. This Costco has more extra equipment and supplies, Catering to businesses. more so than your normal Costco. They also have Variety of business services and information for example credit card services or ovens and refrigeration for restaurants or commercial grade vacuums. You could also buy credit card receipts calculators and many other stuff you could use for your business like commercial grade toilet paper and hand wipes. If you own a business I would highly recommend visiting this location they don’t have some of the items that a regular Costco has but they have a lot to offer for small businesses.

Always fast no lines. Not a great selection of quality organics like a regular store. But does have some perks that the regular store doesn’t. Ex. basil! But its inorganic and from China. That scares me

Costco business center is a lot like Restaurant Depot or Jethro. The main difference is that this CBC has a wide selection to choose from and the place is three times bigger! Thankfully, it doesn’t get as crowded down any aisles or have long lines at the checkout. Best. Part. About. CBC. Seriously, regular Costco’s can’t compare! I must say, they need more free samples (:
All the employees are very helpful and are more than happy to give a hand when loading everything onto your car as well. I suggest to tip, but it’s up to you. Also, I typically park closest to the exit, that way you’re not pushing the cart too far when you get out.
Prices are decent but not for all items, not always. Sometimes it’s better elsewhere. Make sure to come in here knowing of prices to compare.
The store location is not my favorite because it’s out of the way. I make it a mission to drop by here or simply when I’m in the area. Restaurant Depot or Jethro are both more of a convenience.

I heard about Business Costco from my sister who lives in Hawaii. She told me that she visits the one in Las Vegas and that they have lots of kitchen items which aren’t in the regular Costco stores.
I recently started stopping in and it’s fun to see all the different items. They have lots of food items which would be perfect for large families or businesses. There’s a huge selection of takeout containers, so if you’re into that sort of thing, you have to stop by. There’s aisles and aisles of beverages and lots of fresh and frozen food items.
They have frying pans which I didn’t see at the regular Costco. My sister swears by them.
There’s lots of office products and I picked up a plastic chair mat on sale today.
Today, they had an open house and gave away free insulated coolers! Perfect size to put in my car for groceries.

Can’t believe it’s taken this long to write a review – we have been using Costco Business Delivery’s services for years (Hawthorne is the delivery supplier for our business in Irvine). Yes, the prices are sometimes higher on certain products vs the B&M, but overall, if you are looking to stock your small business, I think this is the #1 choice. We’ve tried some other competitors, like Staples Delivery, but always seem to come back to Costco.
I think it is the best mix of value, convenience, and service out there for general business supplies. The one drawback to CBD is their website, but it has been recently re-​designed and seems better. Oh, and the 3pm delivery cutoff… can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to order Amazon instead at 3:30p.

Agree with other reviewers, it’s in and out going there! Parking isn’t bad at all. Selection is business, but it meets up w/​my shopping needs for the monthly items — both food and necessities. For anything else, I will have to continue going to the regular Costco’s near me (especially now with Christmas coming or vitamin stock up).
Why didn’t I give it 5 stars? As with all Costco’s (Walmart’s & all discounted stores) in the areas most people hate having to go to, it’s always the people & their primitive manners — the unmanned and impolite (rude). I get were they are coming from — I grew up from there myself, but I was taught to respect people. It just so unnecessary and annoying. It is what it is! More so in today’s times, we just have to deal with it. Definitely not stopping me from going back.

This is my secret Costco trip when I need more than just business things, but also shopping. It’s way less crowded. Only problem is the entrance ramp is kind of dicey to walk in and out. It’s practical for rolling carts, but you can get fooled in the parking lot and end up parking farther away than you intended.

This Costco is great for shopping for simplistic items with no hassle & hardly any lines.
Of course, I buy some business/​office stuff every once in a while and I noticed they were well-​stocked on those items which is greatly appreciated.
That ramp, though… So if you shop at Costco, chances are you are not going to walk out with just a single item…
TIP: This parking lot does not have many — if any at all — cart receptacles. When you enter the main parking lot facing the store, park on the right side where the ramp ends especially if you are by yourself & have to unload everything.
Clean store & parking lot. Nice employees.
I still prefer Commerce’s Business Costco simply because they have a seemingly larger selection of products. And it’s closer to me! I haven’t used either the food court or gas stations, but Commerce’s also has those. Hawthorne’s has a tire center and that’s about it from what I remember.
I stopped here only for a few items after dropping someone off at LAX. Easy to find from the 105.

So I ordered items on Friday. Received half my order on Monday – not the half I really needed! Called on Tuesday, was told it was shipped separately, that I would receive on Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. Friday still no items. I called at 9:30, spoke to several people, then was connected to the voice mail of Accounts Receivable. They never returned my call. I called again at 2:30 to find out that the items were NOT in stock, and that they credited my account! No phone call, no e-​mail. I will NOT order from them in the future!

This place is amazing. Very different selection from your normal costco but the things they have are incredibly useful and hard to find elsewhere.

I was very satisfied with this costco. At first I was a little nervous because I called the print center to ask for a quote and they said they couldn’t give it over the phone. I had to email them what I needed them to print in PDF format. It took them two days to answer me, but after that the workers were on top of my order.

love this Costco for when I really have to buy for bulk. I used to come here for my work, but I also come when I have big events I plan for and they always have everything! employees are really nice and a lot of their customers are regulars! and there’s no. one. there. I love it. when I go to the regular Costco by my house, it’s always packed but when I come here, it’s all people buying supplies for their businesses.
they don’t have a food court nor do they have a gas station

This is my play ground
They have everything for the kitchen.

Like going to Disneyland for grownups. So many cool things to check out at unbeatable prices and in fascinatingly large quantities.

Lots of great gear for your business !!!

Costco with no line? What???
It was my first time to go to Costco Business Center and I was so surprised. It is unlike any of the other Costcos for a variety of reasons.
Pros:
Not crowded
No lines (you can get in and out of line to pay for your purchases in less than five minutes)
Similar type of food offerings can be found here but in even more bulk
Items not typically found at normal Costcos can be found here (large pans for restaurants, bulk silverware and measuring cups)
Coupons (Similar to a regular Costco they have coupons too but they’re on different stuff)
Cons:
No food court (you can’t get your hot dog or churro craving here)
No gas station (sorry you need to go somewhere else if you want cheap gas)
No free samples (if you’re hungry, go to the vending machine ;) or just buy the item and try it out)
I was actually a fan of the Costco Business Center when I came simply because I was in and out. I didn’t have to fight my way through crowds or accidentally have my foot slammed by someone else’s cart. The only sad thing was they didn’t have a place for me to buy a warm churro for cheap ;) oh and they didn’t have any cute Hello Kitty plushes like the other Costco: P.

I have been shopping here since they first opened, they have changed a lot of thing’s such as some of the items they carry and they stopped taking the regular coupons here, however they do send out a monthly sales book with lots of great deals for your business needs.
They do bring in Turkeys for the holiday season now that’s a nice change.
It is really geared towards business owners and they don’t have all of the personal items and electronics like their regular stores.
They offer all of the services for your printing needs from Banners, T-​shirts to business cards and more, it is a complete printing shop.
Most of the items sold here are sold in bulk and they don’t sell gas nor have a food court at the Business Center’s.
I really like shopping at them better because you save time and money shopping here. Shopping in bulk saves you a lot of money.
I have seen and met many of the companies Executives here and they ask you a lot of questions about how they can help make your shopping experience better for you.
I learned that orginally they were going to be for online orders and you do still see a lot of Costco trucks at the loading docks .
I really appreciate the personalize service I receive when shopping here, they seem to really care about business owners and are very considerate of your time.
My purchases still go towards my points and I usually get a 500.00 check each year (maximum amount) with my executive card. The card is 100.00 however it pays for itself and then some.
I am a loyal customer and so far I have no complaints.
5 stars for sure!

If you haven’t been to a Costco Business Center before… you are missing out! No little kids running around. No crowds. No LONG LONG lines… maybe a small line, but you know what I mean. This is exactly what is says… BUSINESS! you get down to it, with no BS.
Everything is pretty organized. Nothing is really out of place or misplaced. The isles are clean and this place is not a crowded. The prices are broken down for you too! It everything the regular Costco is… with only one drawback. It’s made for even more bulk items. So there are things are the regular Costco that you might not find here. Small little stuff. Only the big and largely ordered items are here.
The positive side to this place, if you are a small business owner or own vending machines or something, this place has it all. Even some restaurant, small eatery stuff like to-​go boxes and napkin dispensers. The Costco business center is really made for the small business people that need to re-​supply for their work. Not really for the every day mom shopper. For that, go to the regular Costco. But you should still come by your local business one because you might see more of a variety of the regular thing you get but in a bigger bulk.
Not really for everyone, but you owe it to yourself to check it out if you are a member. I still shop at both, but I go to the business center when I need certain items and don’t want to wait in long lines.

This Costco is a beast of a different nature, hence «Costco Business Center». This location is more restaurant supply than what you would expect from a normal Costco Warehouse. The selection is huge, and tailored for not only food service, but convenience store resale and janitorial supplies. Most Costcos have one or two different types of a product, but here, for example, you can get every major energy drink by the case and every major chip in vending machine sizes. There aren’t many things I end up buying here, because I don’t have the need to stock a restaurant or bodega, but their commercial kitchen supplies are great quality and super inexpensive. Run of the mill utensils, knives, and serve ware are an outstanding value, and there is a big selection to chose from. They even have chef whites and other industry apparel.
There is also a printing center where you can order everything from flyers to embroidered products to gigantic banners. No food court here, and the whole store is a bit weird being an old shipping depot. The whole store is raised up to dock level and there is a super long ramp that you have to navigate to get your loaded cart back to the car.
In all, it is a cool addition to the Costco family with great prices catering to a different market, and providing a good value for the casual home chef with a Costco membership as well.

This isn’t just any Costco, it’s a Costco business center. You know how when you go to the mini mart around the corner and they always have a giant amount of the best candies and drinks in the right portion size? This is where they get it.
I just bought my cousin a 20 pack of those peach gummy O’s that you get from the gas station for 4 bucks. It’s amazing.
On top of that, they also sell restaurant supplies, so whenever I need like really nice frying pans or utensils, they have it. It’s unlike any Costco you’ve been to (unless you’ve been to any of the other ten costco business centers…)
It’s magical, like a unicorn. So you should go to there…
