Wow!! I don’t need any extra advertisement thanks .
You have to much time on your hands my friend
Also my wholesale prices are £6.50 - £7 for 12 oz
£5? To cheap my friend
No need to be rude ...how does a retailer selling your honey at £7.50 Iwhich is too cheap by the way) buy it from you, wholesale, at £7.00 or even £6.50 ? Most specialist retailers will seek more than a 7% mark up - 6% profit on return. Even LIdl and Aldi look for bigger margins that that. Perhaps Myriad Organics have made a mistake on their shelf edge pricing and it should be £17.50 not £7.50 ?

Mind you - you haven't got much to contend with from Linley Honey ... their label looks like it was done by a 6 year old with a couple of crayons ! There is Artisan and ARTISAN ... !!!

Perhaps you can ask them you know which shop it is .
Owners of that shop say and I’ve heard it before they don’t like to put to much extra on local honey .
Rude I’ve never met you but you have always had a problem with me it’s sad .
Myriad have been buying my honey for three years.

Did you get a problem with jar size buying in from the USA... Being as how US ounces are different to Imperial ounces and their jar sizes are different ? I see your jars are marked up in gms as per standard UK sizes but they look well filled.
Mass ounce measurements are the same though? I thought it was just fluid ounces that differed.
 
Interesting couple of classified ads on the BFA members website at the moment. Bulk honey (barrel and bucket) for sale with an asking price of well under £3 per lb and a separate 400 hive enterprise selling up.

Sign of the times?

The bulk honey seller is AFAIK a (very) large beefarmer. The hive seller I'm not aware of but cites poor crop and current climate (bulk honey market presumably) as reasons for selling up.

He's only reducing by selling 400 so he must be quite a big player. Based in West Midlands by the look of it.
I see there is another guy selling up his 30 hives as he's giving up his "hobby" due to other interests.
 
How do I find the BFA members website.....is that a franchise site...?

at the BFA AGM bulk honey was discussed - suggested there is too much out there and a price closer to £2/lb may be the way forward - that the honey bulk price had peaked a long while back. Not helped by the two largest packers not buying UK honey at all / or in any volume mainly due to world honey price
 
Could do with buying a bucket for fish bait...
