Tips for Buying Candles in Bulk

Buying candles in bulk can be a great way to save money and get the best deal when working toward your business goals. However, it can also be challenging if you don’t know what to look for. 

Here are some tips on how to find the best wholesale partner for you.

Finding the Right Wholesaler 

When buying in bulk, you want to ensure that the products are of high quality and that the company will be able to handle any questions or concerns that may come up after your purchase. This is where choosing an expert can help.

At Creative Candles, we offer:

  • Short Lead Times. We make all of our candles in-house in Kansas City, Missouri. There are no long supply chains or long lead times to worry about, and we keep an inventory of all candle types, sizes, colors, and scents to help ensure we always have what you need.
  • Unparalleled Customer Service. Some companies can be challenging to reach. Not us. You can contact us by phone, fax, email, and even social media if you have any questions or concerns.
  • Knowledgeable. The benefit of doing one thing for more than 60 years is that you learn to do it well. We use centuries-old candle-making techniques and know everything there is to know about candles and candle-making while staying knowledgeable on the latest styles and trends. If you have candle questions, we have candle answers.
  • Two-Way Relationship. We cultivate strong relationships with all our wholesale partners and their customers. This allows us to know how to meet the unique challenges of various businesses, such as florists, wedding planners, gift shops, home decor, and more.
