Anyone out there know of source for large quantities of oriental seasonings? Possibly a oriental
restaurant distributor? I'd very much like to find an outlet to purchase soy sauce in one to five
gallon containers.

Any help anyone could offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

In my experience, many oriental stores carry soy sauce in such
containers. I have a 1-gallon can in my refrigerator right now,
which I bought at my local store.

You didn't say where you're located, and it's unlikely that my
local store would help you, but if there's such a store near you,
try it instead of a supermarket.

Failing that, look on the web. I just did a search on soy sauce
gallon, and got lots of hits. Here's just one:

Smart & Final / Cash & Carry carries 5-gal. buckets of soy sauce, large cans
of Hoisin sauce, cases of fortune cookies, etc. Their selection is much
more limited than an Asian grocer's, but their prices are pretty good and
they have large, restaurant-sized packages. They are a U.S. West Coast
chain--see http://www.smartandfinal.com/store_locations.asp for
locations.

No idea where you are. The Korean Lotte supermarket chain, in the US DC
area, has bulk sizes of many items, including soy sauce.
