Beth asked: I run a small business from my home selling soy candles. My current supplier has good prices but as the business is growing I would like to cut costs and buy directly from the manufacturers. My current supplier is not willing to part with this information as they want to keep my business for themselves. I am mostly looking for glass jars and tins for the candles we make. I already have contracts with the manufactures of our wax and colors. I would also like any information on manufacturers of candle scents. I have been to a few trade shows but it’s still mostly middlemen suppliers and not the manufacturers.
