Vinegar makes some of the best marinades and salad dressings used or sold in restaurants, retail stores and specialty food stores. A variety of vinegar remedies for common ailments also exist. Whether you run a health food store, restaurant or specialty food store, you can find the right information on vinegar for your business.
Vinegar suppliers commonly deal with cider and wine-based vinegars. However, as the popularity of specialty vinegars increases, vinegar manufacturers now offer a wider selection of vinegars to suppliers and businesses. When choosing a vinegar distributor, keep these things in mind:
1. Some vinegar suppliers specialize in industrial foodservice vinegar only and might not have special flavored vinegars. You will need to shop around for more rare vinegars, such as chardonnay or pomegranate vinegars.
2. There is a huge selection of vinegar available to stores and foodservice businesses. Selections range from traditional red, white and cider vinegars, to malt, balsamic, rice, raspberry, pineapple and chardonnay vinegars.
3. Apple cider vinegar is the vinegar used the most for home remedies. Distilled white vinegar is used for home remedies and as a natural cleaner.
