— inline, online, and beyond.
At Oliver Marketing, we specialize in guiding brands through the complexities of Costco. From inline placement and Costco.com listings to drop shipping and national roadshows, we help vendors succeed in one of the most competitive retail environments in the world.

Big Enough to Move Millions.
Small Enough to Grow Startups.
Whether you’re an established national brand or an emerging business, we meet you where you are — and help you grow. We’ve supported brands launching their first Costco item and helped others scale into regional and national inline programs.
Our Relationship with Costco
Our journey with Costco started with a single item: VCR tape rewinders. Gary Hartnett, then assisting Bob Oliver, helped coordinate early vendor agreements and item setups.
Since then, our partnerships with Costco’s internal teams — from Assistant Buyers to Inventory Controllers — have grown into long-standing relationships built on trust, consistency, and results.
