Yoshua

Im a bee keeper and want advice about where I can buy sugar by the tonne?

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

All the quotes I have so far are way too high.

You could try British Sugar.

There's 907 Kg in a Tonne wow that's alot of sugar, you've got the likes of makro and costco but I doubt they'd do bigger than 50kg. Why not ask a local baker who supplys them?

Bako are one of the main bakery wholesalers.

Hi
We buy sugar at work from a company called Kent foods. Just beware the cost of sugar is quite high at the moment. I know the last shipment we had was cheaper per pound from the local cheap shop than we paid for a few ton.
Hope this helps

You are right, the princess is mixing up her tons and tonnes. A common problem with royalty, along with gout and speech impediments

Hi, no idea on the going rate, etc but you could get a pallet from poundland. For 1000kg would be £667 as they sell 1.5kg bags.

Maybe it's like a bakers dozen = 13.

A sugar tonne is 907kg? :rolleyes:
