Finding wholesale soy wax in bulk is a great way to save money if you are serious about making soy candles or starting your own candle business.
While you can often find decent prices on soy wax as a part time hobbyist at most craft stores, this can get expensive if you want to make a lot of candles. After all, when you buy something in the store, you are paying the retail price, meaning you are paying a lot more than necessary so the retailer and the distributor makes money.
When you buy wholesale, you skip the “middleman” of the retailer, and sometimes even the distributor, because you are buying it directly. You usually need to buy bulk soy wax quantities this way, but if you are making a large inventory of different products, this is what you would need anyway. Spending less on wax and other candle making supplies means more profits for you! (It’s also a good idea to check out finding discount fragrances for candles, since that can also sometimes be a costly expense when you are making a large quantity!)
For some wholesale distributors, you may need a tax ID. This can be somewhat of an obstacle, but usually requires only you filing the appropriate paperwork in order to obtain one. (See your state’s small business administration for more information on this). If you prefer to skip the business tax ID, then you can instead opt to buy it from the different sources available that don’t require one.
Buying it online is obviously the most easiest option, since there may or may not be very many distributors around where you live in the same location.
Another place to find some incredible deals is online at eBay, some of these are less than $1 per pound! When you consider the craft stores I shop at charge $3 a pound or more, this is a great deal! I personally prefer flakes because it seems to me to be a lot easier to work with, but you can also find bulk soy wax blocks if you click on any of the things below and search exactly for what you are looking for.
