In this article, we'll explore the benefits of purchasing wholesale candle supplies, provide insights into what qualifies as wholesale, discuss available products, and share helpful services that make buying wholesale easier. Whether you're a small candle maker or looking to expand your business, buying in bulk can save you money, ensure stock availability, and support your growth. So, let's dive in!

The Benefits of Buying Wholesale Candle Supplies

  • Saving Money: Wholesale purchases offer cost savings of up to 20% on selected items, allowing you to maximize your budget and increase profit margins.

  • Reduced Shipping Costs: Buying wholesale means fewer shipments and lower shipping expenses, saving you money in the long run.

  • Stock Availability: By purchasing supplies in bulk, you secure your stock in advance, ensuring you have everything you need to fulfill customer orders promptly.

  • Preparedness: When unexpected events like supply shortages occur (e.g., during COVID-19), wholesale buying protects your business from disruptions and allows you to meet customer demands with ease.

Secure Your Stock

  • Eliminate Stock Shortages: Buying wholesale supplies ensures you have an ample stock on hand, preventing the panic of last-minute orders or running out of essential materials. You'll be well-prepared for your customers' demands, even during unexpected spikes in sales.

  • Guaranteed Availability: With wholesale purchasing, you no longer need to worry about items being out of stock when you need them the most. Village Candle provides a reliable supply chain, ensuring you receive your order promptly and have peace of mind.

Understanding Wholesale Quantities

  • Fragrances: Wholesale fragrances start at 25 pounds, and anything above that quantity qualifies as a wholesale purchase. Keep in mind that a lead time of 3 to 4 weeks is typically required for fragrance orders.

  • Wicks: Wicks are offered by the case, with a minimum starting quantity of 5,000.

  • Wax: Depending on the type of wax you choose, wholesale quantities range from 37 cases up to 60 cases per pallet.

Finding Wholesale Products

  • Visit our website: Explore our website's bulk section to find a comprehensive list of products available for wholesale purchase. Although you can't buy them directly online, you can contact us to place your order and receive a customised quote.

  • Request Unlisted Products: If you can't find a specific item you need in bulk on our website, reach out to us directly, and we'll assist you in finding the product or alternative solutions.

Making Bulk Purchases Easier

  • Financing Options: Village Candle offers a program called "Splitit" at checkout. This program allows you to split your payments into three instalments, ensuring you can buy a pallet without worrying about high-interest charges on your credit card. Take advantage of this convenient option to manage your budget effectively.

  • Storage Program: If space is a concern, Village Candle provides a storage program for a fee of $45. You can store your pallets securely at their facility for up to a month, ensuring you have access to your supplies when you need them. This is particularly beneficial for those planning ahead or preparing for the busy holiday season.

Planning for the Busy Season

  • Early Ordering: To ensure you have ample stock for the busy season, it is recommended to place your orders as early as June. By ordering in advance, you help Village Candle forecast demand and secure the necessary stock for your business.

  • Avoid Stock Shortages: Ordering ahead of time helps prevent stock shortages, as inventory can be limited during peak periods. Stay ahead of the game by planning and placing your orders in advance.

Timely Ordering and Contact Information

  • Order Timing: We recommend placing orders well in advance, especially during the busy season that starts around August. By ordering earlier, you help us forecast demand and secure stock for your business.
