The Best Shea Butters for Buying in Bulk
For soapmaking, whipped-butter batches, or a household that goes through shea fast, bulk formats change the economics — the same brands often cost 30–50% less per ounce in pound-plus sizes than in retail jars. These directory members sell in 2 lb or larger formats (one goes to 55 lb).
