Buffet Label: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.12 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.025 at volume, on a typical 12-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

|---|---|
| 500–999 units | $0.12 |
| 1,000–4,999 units | $0.08 |
| 5,000–9,999 units | $0.06 |

What moves the price
For buffet label, the drivers are size, material, adhesive type, finish, print colors, shape, die cut shape, thickness — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale label pricing from US-facing suppliers shows custom labels dropping from about $0.08–$0.25 at 250–999 units to roughly $0.02–$0.05 at 25,000+ units, while custom-label pricing guides show similar volume breaks for BOPP/paper labels and faster drops for standard die-cut roll labels. The biggest price drivers are material (paper vs BOPP/vinyl/clear), adhesive (permanent vs removable vs freezer-grade), print complexity, and die-cut shape/finish; more complex or premium hospitality buffet labels will price above basic rectangular paper labels. Realistic supplier routes are label converters and trade printers (roll or sheet labels) or offshore import/manufacturing for higher volumes, with landed-equivalent pricing strongest at 10,000+ units.
