About the PPCB
The Philadelphia Produce Credit Bureau (PPCB) is a service of the Philadelphia Wholesale Produce Market (PWPM). It was created to simplify how buyers do business with our merchants. Instead of managing multiple bills, checks, and credit arrangements, PPCB allows customers to access a unified credit system that covers all participating PWPM merchants.
By consolidating credit relationships into one account, the PPCB streamlines billing, lowers costs, and provides buyers with a strong financial partner and reference.
