Agency Shopping List

Are you a member in good standing needing food and grocery products to stock your shelves?

The Agency Shopping List provides an all-inclusive list of available items in our warehouse as of the publication date (every two weeks). The Agency Shopping List is as up-to-date as possible, however, agencies are reminded that some items listed at this time may not be available simply due to recent orders being picked and filled.

To place an order, member agencies can contact the Food Bank by phone or email to receive a list by U.S. Mail or electronically when the list is published. Call (574) 232-9986 or email us.

We are not able to accept or fill any orders for any individuals or for agencies that are not a member of the Food Bank of Northern Indiana. Contact our Agency Relations Department at 574-232-9986 to become an agency of the Food Bank.
