Plastic Ladle: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.97 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.23 at volume, on a typical 25-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 plastic ladle, the drivers are alloy, temper, thickness, width, length, surface condition, pack count, bag material — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale pricing shows clear volume breaks for plastic ladles, with US-facing distributors quoting roughly $1.28 each at 48/case and $0.97 each at 96/case, while marketplace listings show Chinese factory MOQs around 1,920 pieces at $0.40-$0.47 and 5,000 pieces at $0.59-$1.00. The biggest price drivers are custom print, pack-out, case strength, and whether the product is a disposable or heavier reusable ladle; import-market prices are lower when unitization is simple and decoration is minimal. For realistic sourcing, US distributors suit small/urgent wholesale buys, while Made-in-China/Alibaba-style factory routes are the plausible path for 5,000+ units and especially 25,000+ units.
