Eight Reasons Wesley’s Wholesale Is the Greatest Thing to Ever Happen to Beirut Grocery Shopping
Few Lebanese know that nestled in the city of Jnah, a huge warehouse fashioned in the likes of big club stores in the US and Canada exists. Weâre talking about Wesleyâs Wholesale, a silo filled with an endless selection of merchandiseâeverything from those iconic red plastic cups perfect for home parties to dark-chocolate dipped granola clusters, Irish steel-cut oatmeal, wooden cutting boards and patio furniture. Yup. All that and everything in between. Here, youâd be pretty hard-pressed NOT to find all your American favorites.
We did some extreme pacing up and down the aisles to give you an idea of the wonders Wesleyâs hording in its stronghold. Grab a shopping cart, and letâs go!
1. Sweet Edibles Everywhere
Tis the season for chocolate, and Wesleyâs shelves are lined with the sweet edibles in every shape, form and flavor. You canât celebrate Christmas without cherished gingerbread cookiesâtry McVitieâs mini gingerbread men dipped in milk chocolate. Only at Wesleyâs!
2. If It’s Coffee You’re Craving…
I’M SORRY WHAT? You didn’t get your coffee fix today? Wesley’s has everything you’re looking for, caffeine junkies. Folgers, Dunkin, Maxwell House, Mayorga… you’ll have the morning shakes in no time.
3. A Haven for Health Nuts
Admit it, youâre a health fanatic, and âsuperfoodsâ has become your adopted middle name. Wesleyâs has got you covered with a variety of healthy snacks including everybody’s favorite food-on-the-go: nuts!
4. The Plethora of BBQ Sauces
Some of us refuse to accept that summer is over and that winter is starting to show its soaking wet face. For those of us who are diehard aficionados of summer BBQs and who continue to grill even with the arrival of Christmas (heyâwho knows? It could be sunny this December 25!), Wesleyâs offers a variety of BBQ sauces perfect for marinating every type of meat. Thereâs even a Jim Beam steak sauce infused with Kentucky bourbon. Now thatâs the festive spirit!
5. Top of the Line Hygiene Products
You care about the environment, and you love to use all natural products free of artificial preservatives and animal ingredients. Tree-hugger you may be, but you still insist on smelling good. Try Tomâs Naturally Dry antiperspirant sticks, which provide 24-hour wetness and odor protection thanks to its plant and mineral byproducts. Wesleyâs shelves are stocked with these life saviors.
6. Classy Kitchenware
Donât even think about heating your waffles or sliced bread in a microwave. Oh no. For that, dear readers, you need a proper toaster, and it doesnât get more proper than KitchenAidâs artisan variety. Fabricated from metal and equipped with an electronic sensor for consistent toasting, this red-and-chrome baby is what you need to make the best toast for scrambled eggs.
7. One Stop Christmas Shopping
Christmas is right around the corner, and weâre pretty sure youâre going to need yards upon yards of wrapping paper. Wesleyâs offers an assortment of the stuff, as well as ribbons, stickers, cards, and envelopes to suit your gifting essentials. To keep sane, youâll probably require a few slices of fragrant Italian panettone in between gift wrapping sessions. Thankfully, theyâve got that, too!
8. Imported Specialties
Weâve all fallen in love with Italian cuisine thanks to that wickedly tasty little spread called pesto, derived from basil, pine nuts, olive oil, and parmesan. Have you ever laid your eyes orâbetter yetâdipped your tongue in pistachio pesto? Spread this flavorful Sicilian marvel on crusty bread as an appetizer, or toss it with your favorite heart-shaped pasta, also available at Wesleyâs. It is nut-terrific!
