Most notably is there Kirkland Signature brand, Costco's trademark private-label brand. They only use this brand on merchandise sold through their website or warehouses. This brand came at a time where they recognized the need for quality goods at budget-friendly prices. However, most of these brands are manufactured by national brands such as Starbucks, Ocean Spray, Niagara, and Humboldt Creamery. They operate membership warehouses and e-commerce websites with a limited selection of nationally-branded and private-label products in a wide range of categories. By keeping these products at a low price, they are able to produce high sales volumes and rapid inventory turnover.
