Paper Packet: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.75 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.23 at volume. 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 paper packet, the drivers are paper weight, moisture resistance, print, sheet size, coating, surface finish, print customization, tear resistance — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published US-facing promo listings show custom seed packets at roughly $0.54-$1.08 each at low hundreds, while wholesale marketplaces and bulk seed-paper sources show substantially lower per-unit prices at larger counts. The biggest drivers are print coverage, paper stock and seed compatibility, plus whether the packet is a simple printed envelope or includes fill/insert services; realistic supplier routes are promotional-products distributors, wholesale seed-packet marketplaces, and landed-import/custom print vendors. The 100k+ tier is inferred from adjacent bulk/wholesale ladder pricing rather than a directly published US seed-packet quote, so it should be treated as a market estimate.
