What do you need from your kindling supplier ?

[gensetsteve]

As we are approaching kindling season again we are thinking what can we supply for the price. So rather than guess, thought I would ask . I would be grateful of your wish list in order. Obviously price is important but things like size, quality, bag type ect anything you can think of that is useful to you.

The temptation to reply to the original question: "What do you need from your kindling supplier?" with the one-word answer: "Kindling!" is almost overwhelming... :-)

 

That said, thanks for asking. For me:

 

- High-quality, very dry, consistent, softwood kindling

- Packaged in boxes or nets in a size that would retail for around £5

 

Appreciate you don't ship - and not a desperate problem for me. But for me almost as important as the above would be the service: if I travel some distance with the wood trailer to collect from you, can we agree a date and time that you will commit to as well?

 

Hope this helps, Steve.

Thanks for the post was feeling a bit lonely on this thread. We can do everything you ask. The keeping to a time for collection is a given, once I have a collection, I organise work for that day in the yard. If You PM me your address I will see if I can drop a sample off. Hope to see you soon.

Steve, I think it's a good idea to be asking this, it's more accurate than second guessing our customers needs. As you say the obvious targets have already been met, but perhaps it's the more subtle points that need illustrating... For instance, does it aid the customer that I palletise and stretch wrap my kindling nets? It certainly works for me as a producer for ease of handling and stock rotation.

I think most customers have very different needs. The customers that collect a 1000 bags want them loose so they can be stacked. But some who collect 200 bags would prefer pallet and wrap. But there is a cost in supplying a pallet some wrap and time to do it. So I thought best way is to ask. We will do our best to provide what people want.

I would take two wrapped pallets of 5kg or possibly larger kindling nets.

 

In my limited experience the bigger and drier the net of kindling the better.

We have 4kg nets 40x50 cm not planning on producing bigger. I have no idea where you are based but if you are in our area you are welcome to drop in and take away a sample bag to see if it would suit your needs.

What you supplied last year was just fine, and hopefully this year it will be the same as well as the price:thumbup:
