Dadant and Sons

Love them!!! I ordered 100 honeycomb sheets and wicks for a project I’m doing with my students. I live in Hawaii so shipping is often more than the product itself but Dadant’s prices – all totalled with tax and shipping – was over $ 100 cheaper than I found ANYWHERE else! As if that wasn’t good enough, I ordered it Thursday afternoon Fresno time and received it on Monday. The sales people I talked to in both California and Illinois were very knowledgable, patient and helpful. They both provided full quotes, including shipping, within 15 minutes. I have never written an online review but was so impressed with Dadant’s service that I felt compelled to share. Great company! Keep up the good work!

This might be a little strange if you’re not a beekeeper.
Dadant & Sons, Inc is a beekeeping supply company. They carry just about anything that you would need for a beekeeper and they can outfit you in a single day to start if you want.
I’ve ordered online from Dadant and have traveled to their Fresno office. In my experience the staff in general is very helpful. They’re friendly and happy to answer all your questions. I had to make the trip up there to exchange a bee suit I bought. I also bought a few other things as well.
Their prices are reasonable. I suggest you try to go to one of their offices if one is near you rather than order online and pay for the shipping if your getting things like bee suits, hive tools and smokers. The shipping inflates the prices of those items badly. Which isn’t their fault.
I forgot the plastic loop to the hood of my suit and one of the sides to a super was missing the rabbet to rest the frames on. I sent an email notifying them of the problem and they sent out a replacement for both that day and it arrived the next day. Major kudos for the quick response. Dadant cares for their customers.
