Vicky_CO Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 Well the soy places like Golden Brands have the lowest minimum and theirs is 6 pallets I believe IGI is a whole lot higher. A pallet is around 2000 lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 I have never tried Golden Brands. Are they comparable to the soy IGI sells? Do you know how much a pallet would cost??? If you don't mind sharing, if not I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystical_angel1219 Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 A full skid is 36 cases- 1800 lbs.If you buy directly from the manufacturer, the minimums are high. Cost is approx. 1100.00- 1400.00 per pallet plus freight. Do you have any online suppliers close to you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicky_CO Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 I have never used IGI soy so can't help you there.Last time I bought a pallet I think it was close to $1400 and that included frieght to me. But I buy from Gateway 877 220 1963 if I am rembering right the price from Golden brands was close to the same but I had to buy 6 pallet there. Most of the manufactures don't start to give really good discount till you reach the 1/2 truck load stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trish Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 To buy direct from IGI, you have to buy minimum 24,000lbs per year and a minimum 2 pallets at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenScentU Posted February 17, 2007 Author Share Posted February 17, 2007 Thanks Everyone,I am probably going to have to buy from my regular supplier until I get a contract that the company buying from will buy more than one or two pallets of candles on an ongoing basis. I was trying to get an idea of what it would cost me because IGI is closed until Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
