Hillary Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I was just curious about how everyone orders FO's. Do you try to stick with just one or two suppliers for FO's or do you order from as many suppliers as you need to to get your favorites. I tend to stick with NG myself. I've been really pleased with almost every FO I've tried from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celicagtca Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I personally don't like to put all my eggs in one basket, I use several. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freezin Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I wanted to stick with one or two, but there are just too many good suppliers and not all of them have what I want. Right now I have 4 or 5 that I buy from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaVA Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I can't limit myself to one, but ordering from too many is time consuming and expensive. I have about 4-5 that I order from regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giedre11 Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I have several that I order from too, but only because there are certain FO's that only those suppliers have and I love them!. Of course, since I don't sell I have leisure on my side as far as that's concerned. There just are some knock my socks off scents, but unfortunately they are not under one "roof".

Janette Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I also try to keep the number of suppliers I use to 4 or 5. If I had to choose just two right now though, it would be NG and Peaks. Like the others said, no one supplier has everything.Janette Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 I used to have 13 fragrance suppliers. I've whittled it down to 2 EO suppliers and 4, maybe 5 FO suppliers. Luckily so I guess, most of my other FO suppliers have gone out of business! Which happens alot lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillary Posted May 1, 2006 Author Share Posted May 1, 2006 I guess it would also depend on your production. I'm still pretty limited in what I'm making. So for me a couple of suppliers is fine for now. But I suppose eventually it would pay to have more resources even if it does require more ordering and shipping charges.

Sherri in Canada Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I like to be fair to everyone so I buy from lots of them lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceCarvesWax Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I tell customers all the time that its like being a gourmet chef, you are not going to get the best of everything in one store. You have to shop around and cherry pick the suppliers to give the customers what YOU feel is the best product. 20+ suppliers for me ACK!!!!
