You might check with Bob's Red Mill or some of the bread makers and see if they'll divulge their suppliers.Trying to find local places to buy bulk beans, rice, wheat berries. Local being Oregon around Portland and will drive where needed to get there. Bulk being anywhere from 100lb bags, pallets, or large 1 ton bags. Thanks for any info.
Winco offers discount on bulk bags.Hard to find in that kinda qty, winco and some health food stores have up to 50lb but pricey
Thank you, checking the website now.We use Azure Standard for big bulk buys of grains, salt, sugar etc. They also have a lot of grocery items too but it's a great place to get 50+ lb bags of the staples. When you place an order you pick a drop site where the truck brings your order. We've moved around several times in the last few years and utilized drops in Forest Grove, Milwaukie, and Portland. Drops are typically once a week, and I think the order cutoff is Saturday or Sunday night for the following week.
One place you might try is something like Chef store??, (maybe)
Use to be Cash N Carry, and for the life of me I can't think of exactly what they are called now after being imprinted by the former name for 20 years. None the less there are quite a few around albeit shelves thinner as most like businesses the last couple years. In past life, I was able to order pallets of things they stocked on the shelves. Many of the little restaurants, food carts and kiosks buy from them. You don't need a wholesale or business license to buy from them.
Once a week?

Is it possible price hike is ALSO due to seasonal inventory (on top of supply chain balony)??The price for wheat at azure standard has gone up. A few months ago i bought 50 pound bags of hard red wheat for $33, now it is $75, if they have it in stock. Might want to start looking local and see if you can befriend a local farmer. I am worried wheat may be in short supply soon.
