Spice Containers

Hi,
I am in the process of starting a little BBQ Rub business and have been through a lot of websites trying to find inexpensive 4 or 5 ounce plastic spice containers to ship my rubs. Was curious to know if any of you know of any companies with reasonable prices out there.

Thanks!

Since no one responded, I went ahead and went with Freund Container and Supply. Got 20 4oz spice bottles with sifter caps for $30 with shipping. 20 should be enough to get me started to see how it's going to be!

You gave folks 3 hours in the busiest part of most peoples day, could be why there were no answers yet!

Search for "copackers" (22 matches) or "bottles" (http://www.thesmokering.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=64814 ) two bottle firms mentioned and 700+ threads

What are you going to do with 4 oz. of rub???

If your looking to give samples, go the ziplock baggie route.

Vacum Seal them.. Simple, safe shipping in a flat rate envelope to boot

If your looking for feedback on the rubs send a sample my way Very Happy

I have a vertical form fill seal machine that was used for r&d I would be happy to sell you. You can use it for sauce packets too with the volumetric pump option. Only 9k. I was working on a gourmet salad line, couldn't find a lettuce packer at the time who would sell 10 oz bags of lettuce wholesale and didn't have the 1/2 million dollars to set up my own line.
