Local Craftsmanship, Global Sourcing
At Empire Candle®, exceptional products begin with strategic, global candle sourcing. As a leading private label candle manufacturer, we proudly pour candles in Kansas City while leveraging a robust international supply network to develop one-of-a-kind products at scale. Our sourcing capabilities support everything from premium custom candle development to value-driven programs, giving retailers and brand partners flexible solutions without compromising quality.
Our sourcing office in Xiamen, China provides direct access to top-tier factories in China, India, and Vietnam. This location gives us a competitive advantage, enabling rapid sample development, custom vessel sourcing, gift set assembly, and exclusive decorative finishes. Managed by a multilingual team, the office also ensures rigorous quality control at every production stage, inspecting materials, overseeing manufacturing, and validating final goods to maintain our high standards.
In addition to artwork execution, compliance oversight, and end-to-end logistics, our overseas team plays a critical role in upholding product consistency and excellence. By combining Midwestern craftsmanship with global reach, Empire Candle® delivers premium, high-volume programs with the speed, precision, and attention to detail your brand deserves.
