Wholesale Club is a Canadian chain of warehouse club retail stores. The chain operates 58 locations throughout Canada, specializing in foodservice businesses.[1] It is owned by George Weston Limited through Loblaws Companies Limited.

Originally named The Real Canadian Wholesale Club, the company operated in Western Canada before expanding to Ontario in 2003.[3] In 2009, along with Atlantic Cash & Carry stores in Atlantic Canada, the company rebranded to the current name of Wholesale Club.

The company offers no-fee memberships to businesses. However, membership is open to non-business owners, and membership is not required to shop.[2]
