What moves the price
For 355mL standard can, the drivers are capacity, lining, end diameter, decoration method — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale quotes for 355mL/12oz standard aluminum cans cluster around about US$0.05-0.09 at 100,000+ pieces, with Made-in-China listings showing roughly US$0.06-0.13 at 20,000-299,999 pieces and US$0.15 at 100,000-299,999 for custom-printed cans. Lower quantities usually price much higher because tooling setup, decoration, freight, and minimum-order surcharges dominate; mid-range custom-printed cans from US-facing traders or importers are typically the most realistic route, while direct large-volume factory sourcing is the cheapest. Price also moves materially with end diameter/lid spec, lining, and decoration method, so printed cans with 202 ends generally sit above blank or stock can pricing.
