There are only 17 Costco Business Centers in the United States.
The hours differ slightly from a normal Costco, which opens at 10 a.m. on Sunday through Friday and at 9:30 a.m. on Saturdays.
Even though the business centers don't have free samples, many of them still have a traditional Costco food court.
The inside looks almost identical to a traditional Costco store, but it's a little more orderly. The business centers ditch the "treasure hunt" to create a more efficient shopping experience for small business owners.
Costco is known for selling everything in bulk, but the business center takes it to the next level. One reviewer wrote, "20 pounds of spaghetti noodles? 5 pounds of pepper? Check and check."
At the Costco Business Center, you can also find 40-pound bags of potatoes ...
... five-pound bags of marshmallows ...
... and 32-pound tubs of yogurt.
The candy aisle sells enough candy and chocolate to stock any convenience store or movie theater. You can buy giant boxes of Sour Patch Kids for just under $15.
Meat and dairy are also sold in massive quantities. Meat is stored in a separate freezer room.
Costco even provides jackets to wear in the freezer room for shoppers who live in warm climates.
Costco Business Center sells a lot more than just food, like these giant neon signs for restaurants and bars, for instance.
It also carries industrial-size kitchen mixers ...
... and refrigerators like what you might find at a convenience store.
And if at the end of the day you buy too much to take home, you can have your order delivered by the truckload.
