Wholesale and Custom Candles for Tampa Bay Businesses
Your shelf, your label, and a rescue that wins too.
Wholesale, Custom Labels, and Candles for Your Event
Wholesale candles from Tampa, poured by hand for shops, breweries, boutiques, and events across Tampa Bay. Custom labels are included at no charge, the minimum is one case of 12, and $1 from every wholesale candle goes to a local rescue. Your customers get a candle with a story on the label!
Partner With The Salty Dog Candle Company
Every wholesale order is poured by one person in small batches, so Katie reviews each request for supplies and timing before she says yes. That’s not a sales line, it’s how the candles stay good. You’ll hear back within a few business days with an invoice or a couple of questions. Want to see what you’d be stocking? Browse the retail collection or read how the candles are made.

Custom Labels at No Charge, Co-Branded Candles on Request
Your logo, your name, or your event on the label, included in the wholesale price. Custom scents, private labeling, and co-branded candles are available on request and may carry an added fee or minimum depending on the request, and artwork gets approved before anything is poured. Want proof it works?
The Sky Puppy Brewing anniversary candle came out of a collab just like this, and Barriehaus Beer Co. has Crisp and Malt candles with their name on them!
You can also find our candles at local veterinary offices, like Parting Paws in Pinellas Park, and through nonprofit organizations, such as A Cutie Named Stewie!

Lead Time, Shipping, and Payment
Lead Time
Standard wholesale orders are poured within 10 to 14 business days. Custom scents, labels, or larger orders take 2 to 3 weeks, and the clock starts once order details, artwork, and payment are finalized.
Payment and Shipping
Payment is due before production by emailed invoice. Shipping is added by weight and size and paid by you, or choose local pickup or delivery if you’re in the Tampa Bay area.
When It Arrives
Please look everything over when it arrives: damaged, missing, or incorrect items need to be reported within 3 business days with photos, and wholesale orders are final sale otherwise.

Want one of the other retail scents, or something all your own? Ask! Custom fragrance is available on request and may cost a little extra if it has to be ordered in.
“I am completely in love with these candles! Finding a local maker who uses clean soy wax is a dream come true, but the quality here goes way beyond my expectations. The scent is rich, complex, and fills my entire home within minutes of lighting them—yet they never feel overpowering. Best of all, they burn so evenly and cleanly with zero black smoke. You can truly tell how much love and care goes into every single pour. The Salty Dog Candle Company is an absolute joy to support, and their customer service is top-notch. If you want to make your home feel extra cozy or need a perfect gift, look no further. Five stars and two thumbs up all around!”
