Nut supplier recommendation

Hello, for those of you who use nuts in your chocolates, would you be able to recommend suppliers you trust? I am currently buying my nuts locally but am trying to reduce my costs without compromising quality. I looked into large online wholesalers like nuts.com or nutstop.com but these do not seem to deliver consistent quality and appear to have very poor customer service. Thank you for your advice!

I think its best to go direct to a grower who is also a processor. For Pecans, Oliver Pecan in San Saba, TX

Olam Specialty Coffee has a new line of every kind of nut you can imagine. Olam Nuts is what they call it if I remember correctly from last emails

@Chocolaterie I do work in R&D for the company but I would highly recommend tootsi.com based out of Montreal, Canada. Non-gmo, straight from source with organic and conventional options.

@Chocolaterie – Where are you located and what kinds of nuts are you looking for and in what quantities? I have some sources for pallet quantities but not sure that you’re looking for that much. Are you looking for certifications (Kosher, organic)? Specialty like Sicilian pistachio or TGL hazelnuts?
