How to Become a WIC Vendor

Any owner of a grocery store or pharmacy located in Wisconsin may apply for authorization as a WIC grocery vendor.

• Information for grocery stores
• Information for pharmacies

WIC authorization does not transfer to a new owner when a change of ownership occurs. 

Vendors cannot accept WIC drafts until all application requirements are met, including:

• completing forms and submitting supporting documents; 
• passing a site visit; 
• completing a training program; and
• receiving an authorization letter from WIC. 

Completion of the application does not guarantee WIC vendor authorization. Submission of false information will result in denial of the application.
