Serialized Carton: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.61 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.08 at volume, on a typical 7-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.
Median price by order quantity
| Order size | Median /unit |
|---|---|
| 500–999 units | $0.61 |
| 1,000–4,999 units | $0.35 |
| 5,000–9,999 units | $0.22 |
| 10,000–24,999 units | $0.16 |
| 25,000–99,999 units | $0.12 |
| 100,000+ units | $0.08 |
What moves the price
For serialized carton, the drivers are dimensions, board caliper, braille, print colors — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For barcode cartons, the biggest price drivers are board grade/caliper, print coverage, finish, and whether the barcode is variable serialized or static. Real wholesale supplier routes that are most realistic are packaging wholesalers for short-to-mid runs and import/landed-equivalent folding-carton suppliers for larger runs; pricing generally drops as setup and tooling are spread across more units. The 10,000+ tiers are best supported by published carton pricing examples and broader wholesale packaging guidance, while lower tiers are inferred from the same supplier-style pricing curve and should be treated as approximate.
