Buying rice in bulk without buying a problem
Bulk rice looks like a commodity until a lot arrives with a different grain length than the last one. Then your yields move, your plate cost moves, and your kitchen or your shelf tells on you. The job of a bulk rice supplier is to remove that variance.
We do it by holding inventory from the same mills, inspecting each lot on arrival, and shipping from a single Southern California facility rather than drop-shipping whatever a broker found that week. If you order the same SKU in March and in September, it cooks the same both times.
How bulk orders are structured
Bulk starts at 500 pounds and scales to full truckload. Most accounts land on one of these four patterns.
—
Trial order — 500–1,000 lb, parcel or LTL, so your team can cook and cost it before committing.
—
Single pallet — 40 × 50 lb sacks (2,000 lb), LTL with liftgate if you have no dock.
—
Multi-pallet LTL — 2–8 pallets, the usual range for grocers and mid-size distributors.
—
Full truckload — 20+ pallets, priced per hundredweight with a scheduled delivery appointment.
—
Standing order — fixed volume released weekly, biweekly or monthly at a locked price for the term.
Frequently Asked Question
What is your minimum order for bulk rice?
500 pounds — ten 50 lb sacks. Below that, our retail and 25 lb packs on the online store are usually the cheaper route once freight is counted.
Can you hold pricing for a year?
We quote fixed pricing for defined terms on standing orders. Rice is an imported commodity, so longer locks depend on the contract volume and origin market at the time.
Do you deliver to sites without a loading dock?
Yes. Flag it on the order and we quote liftgate LTL so the pallet comes to ground level.
Can we get samples before ordering a pallet?
Yes. We send a sample bag from current stock so your kitchen can cook and cost it against what you use now.
