    Looking for suppliers of chocolate bars/biscuits/sweets etc. Is Musgraves the best place to buy or would I be better off looking for a cheaper supplier elsewhere?

    There was a thread on here in recent weeks but can't find it now, advising a place in england for all types of sweets.

    I see a lorry driving round Dublin quite a bit that belongs to a sweet wholesaler - JR Brynes.

    from my experience musgraves isnt the cheapest on alot of things but saying that they do great special offers. They also have the widest range of products.

    I also use a few different places who deliver FOC Alderwood confectionary and Simply Direct.

    Dont stock as much as musgraves but have the majority of sweets.

    Iv never used JR Byrne but hear they are good too.

    Hope that helps

    DCS central in the UK does some seriously good offers on about 20 lines of the most popular chocolate lines. Toblerone 35 g for between 15-18p . Aero's, rolo's, cdm standard around the 26p mark. Cans of coke/diet coke they have for 26p each, which is 6p cheaper than you can get from coke themselves

    They also have some great prices on everything health and beauty (toothpaste , handwash, etc)

    Only problem is minimum order is a whopping £3k so probably closing on €5k so for a small store its a huge whack of stock if you can only have confectionary
