Youre thinking Bry! I live on west coast of florida and so far haxe not found major distribution center for bulk vending supplies. Just had candy and nut broker contact me from Lakeland, fl. Again every time someone touches the product you have to add costs shipping or cut the product down as I have found with one internet b ased candy distributor. We organize crunch the numbers and split the shipping via the manufacturer. They are in the business of selling candy and this may be a new marketing approach tapping into a new market for them. The consequence here is that we dont get this they dont sell more, we go to discount stores,etc.Need yor feedback!
