Tissue Paper: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.35 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.11 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 tissue paper, the drivers are roll dimensions, material, cushion rating, recyclability — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale tissue pricing from US-facing suppliers shows strong quantity breaks for custom-printed or bulk tissue sheets, with small-run pricing around $0.40/unit at 500–4,999 pieces and $0.19/unit at 10,000+ from a custom packaging supplier, while commodity tissue at Paper Mart can reach about $0.03/unit for unprinted sheets. The main price drivers are sheet size, ply/weight, recycled vs virgin fiber, and whether printing plates or setup are required; custom print and specialty finishes move price up materially. Realistic supplier routes are US wholesale packaging distributors for low-to-mid MOQs and import/manufacturer-direct channels for 25k+ units, where landed-equivalent pricing can get meaningfully lower.
