The Trail's End Consumer Internet Popcorn Ordering Program

This program is designed to provide your unit with additional profit from Popcorn Sales throughout the year. Your consumers can log on to www.orderpopcorn.com and purchase popcorn with a credit card. The product is shipped directly from Trail's End to the consumer and your unit and Scouts receive credit for the Sale.

To enter the site and view the products, use your unit's Order Key Number, a Scout's Order Key Number, or the council Order Key Numbers which is TE8434

Transatlantic Council  will distribute 30% commission to units on all sales generated from the Consumer Internet Ordering Program on a quarterly basis.
