Cord: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.18 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.03 at volume, on a typical 21-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 cord, the drivers are fabric blend, weight, stretch recovery, color, width, material, weave, finish — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale listings for cord/stringing materials show sub-$1 unit pricing at low MOQs, with better pricing on larger lots and meter-based or bundle-based quotes from trade suppliers. Realistic routes are jewelry-bead wholesalers for waxed/beading cord, broader B2B marketplaces for custom-colored or custom-labeled cord, and import/OEM suppliers when you need custom packaging or print; material, diameter, finish, and spool length are the main cost drivers, not the unrelated cannabinoid/terpene terms in the prompt. For a mid-range custom-printed configuration, the most credible pricing is from bulk craft-jewelry suppliers and OEM import offers, with lead times typically around 2-4 weeks depending on customization and shipping.
