Updates for 17 September

Our industry continues to change and evolve with supply-side challenges. While I don’t feel like this is a period of doom and gloom, it’s hard to see small businesses close. The pandemic saw unprecendented growth in indie candlemaking and a lot of new vendors came online during the boom. I think we’re seeing a course correction with increased competition, economic challenges, and a maturation of the indie side of the industry as a whole.

Here’s the latest movement in directory:

Recent Closures:

South FL Candle Supply

Cocoeco in Montreal

Botanic Universe in Canada
