Bottle suppliers for small quantities

Postby dogbreath vodka » Mon Dec 15, 2014 4:31 pm

Hi Gents
I know this comes up from time to time.... but.
Can't find the links I'm after.

So has anyone out there got links to suppliers of small quantities of 700-750ml bottles
Plasdene and Cospak are only big players... a pallet of bottles is usually 1000+ bottles.
Just a little out of my reach 8-} 8-} 8-}
Even http://www.silverlock.com.au seems to be larger quantities

Some of those that have smaller quantities have nothing close to what we usually would use
Suppliers such as glassbottlesdirect.

tried http://www.krpackaging.com ..... leave a message.. so maybe??

Plasdene have a minimum buy which is like about $84 or something like that. You don't have to buy a pallet load.

Didn't see that on their website...
Will give them another go.

Cheers for that
What bottles were you buying?
Because in the spirit bottles section all the 750ml pk sizes are N/A - pallet only
Or are you making phone inquires?

OK just phoned them
Minimum quantity of spirit bottles.... a pallet

BUT
clear wine bottles IF you want this one only clear wine bottles
$125 plus freight. That's for 80 bottles


Their minimum buy is $120 plus freight

That is from the Brisbane office.

Weird, must be different from state to state. No problems buying anything in Perth?

Shhh don't tell the Perth Plasdene crew about the minimum being a pallet, I'm about to go pick up a bunch next week. I think $84 is about right

I have had success buying from galaimports.biz

They have some bottles in a variety of sizes and shapes. I really like the clockface bottles, 500mL and look cool with a 5 o'clock somewhere label on them. Minimum buy is only 24.

Cheers,

Richard
