Incense is a popular high-turnover, high-profit product that is easy to sell. Increase your band's income by creating your own brand of incense to sell alongside your other merch.

Customize the package with cover art from your CDs or let us design it for you. Create fragrance names based on your song titles. Add liner notes, CDs and downloads for sale, your myspace link and other info to the package. Not only will you increase your income, but the package helps promote your band, too.

Motor City Incense stands apart from other brands in quality and value. We hand dip our incense in small batches. We package it inside a plastic sleeve which is then inserted inside another plastic package. This keeps the incense fresh longer but still allows enough aroma to escape so the customer can choose their favorite fragrances.

We produce many traditional incense fragrances and also some interesting unique ones. We've got more than 40 scents and add new ones all the time.

With our low minimum order requirements and competitive pricing, you can begin selling your own brand of incense for an investment of less than $200.

For further information, please

email us at bandmerch@motorcitycandleworks.com,
or call us at (313) 254-4799.

Thanks!

Motor City Candleworks, purveyors of fine candles named for people, places and things in Detroit history and culture, now offers Motor City Incense, celebrating Michigan's great places.

Our incense is hand-dipped in bold fragrances and lasts longer than typical incense sticks. The package is designed by acclaimed local artist Mark Arminski to evoke the counter-culture history of incense in the 60s and 70s.

As a retailer of Motor City Incense, you will attract novelty and impulse sales of a unique product. Incense buyers become repeat buyers, so you will be driving continous traffic to your store. And, our incense has a generous mark-up so your sales-per-square-foot will be very profitable.

We are looking for new retailers throughout the state to carry our premium incense. We will add their names to our website so interested buyers will know who where they can buy Motor City Incense.

We are proud to offer this premium, hand-dipped incense with a nod to Michigan's great places and history.

The package art has been created by Mark Arminski, a local artist known for his work on concert posters and handbills. It evokes the psychedelic period of the 60s, when incense was in it's heyday.

Our incense has evolved to fit the 21st century lifestyle. The scents are bold and imaginative. Of course, we have the old standby's such as Nag Champa and Patchouli. But you'll be blown away by our Cheboygan Cinnamon Rolls and Ann Arbor Berry Bash, too. At just $1.29 a package, why not try them all?

Each package contains 8 sticks of a single, bold fragrance. Burn time is generally more than 60 minutes each.
