where to find bulk oils?

[karena.thurston]

I have been scouring the internet, and am seeking recommendations for oil suppliers. I prefer organic oils, and primarily use olive, coconut, sunflower, castor and shea butter. I live in Philadelphia, and would prefer a distributor close to the area to minimize shipping charges.

I've started looking into wholesale food distributors in the area but I'm not sure if that's a good route. I'm trying to get my costs down while still getting the quality I desire, and am looking to buy in bulk (5 gallon pails).

I figure you all may have some suggestions to help me narrow down the choices.

Thanks!

www.soaperschoice.com has some organics, too.

Oils by Nature and Columbus Foods (Soapers Choice) are both in Ohio and I have found their shipping reasonable (and I'm much farther away). I think J Edwards is in Boston and their quality and prices are good but I've never ordered from them.
