Child-Resistant Box: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.85 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.26 at volume, on a typical 30-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.

What moves the price
For child-resistant box, the drivers are tube length, cap style, material, child-resistant certification, print method — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Pricing moves most with material, child-resistant mechanism, and print complexity: plastic snap-packs and stock tubes are far cheaper than custom printed rigid/tin or magnetic boxes. Real supplier routes that are realistic here are U.S. wholesale retailers for low-to-mid MOQ stock items, and China-based custom factories or importers for larger runs; published quotes on Made-in-China and U.S. wholesale storefronts show roughly $0.39 to $1.05 at 1,000+ units, with lower landed-equivalent costs at larger volumes. The 100,000+ tier is extrapolated from the steep quantity breaks commonly offered by factory-direct suppliers and should be validated with RFQs
