New Wholesale Inquiries:
WELCOME! Thank you for your interest in partnering with us to offer your customers delicious, Michigan made award-winning Light of Day Organics loose leaf Teas!
Regarding the re-selling of our tins, we do not offer a discount on our tins due to labor intensity, but are pleased to offer a sliding-scale discount on pound bags (see below) to wholesale foodservice partners who can answer “yes” to the following questions:
-
Are you allowed to serve prepared drinks at your place of business? A licensed commercial kitchen is required in the state of Michigan for commercial food & drink service.
-
Are you comfortable purchasing our loose teas by the full pound (Approx. 240 servings per pound)?
-
Are you agreeable to putting our name on your menus, website, and other marketing materials: “Tea sourced from Light of Day Organics- Traverse City, Michigan". Sun logo or green favicons also available for use on your menu .

Please (1) complete and submit your (1) New Customer Application, (2) Foodservice Agreement form , and (3) a copy of your Resale Tax ID to: wholesale@lightofdayorganics.com. Once your completed paperwork is received in full, we will reach out by phone for a personal welcome, answer any questions you may have, provide training materials, and help you create your first order. We can have your first order ready for pick up or shipping via USPS Priority Mail within 2 business days. Here is a link to our Wholesale Catalogue of offerings. Discount is 10% off pound bags 1-5, then 15% off orders of 6 pounds or greater. One pound of our loose leaf teas yields 240 servings if steeped only once, (though we encourage repeat steeps), with an average cost to your business of just 60 cents per 16 ounce cup. An alternative to pound bags would be starting out with our retail-size tins which you can purchase here on our website. Once those tins are close to empty and ready for a refill, you can reach out with an order for discounted pound bags.
