The three MOQ tiers

MOQ at ZHONGHE is not one number. It ranges from 500 to 2,000 units and which end of the range applies is decided by how much of the product is standard.

An existing catalog model in a finish already running on the line, packed in stock packaging, changes nothing in production, so a first order can start from about 500 units. Adding a printed logo or a color change adds a setup and a masterbatch run, which is why that tier typically starts from about 1,000 units. Custom packaging, custom colors across several SKUs, or a new cartridge configuration each add their own minimum from the print shop or the media supplier, which is where the 2,000-unit figure comes from.

  • About 500 units: catalog model, standard finish, standard packaging
  • About 1,000 units: logo print, laser marking or a color change
  • About 2,000 units: custom packaging, custom colors, new cartridge configurations
  • Quoted with tooling: a new mold or a new appearance

How to keep a first order at the 500-unit tier

Choose one existing model and one finish already in production, because each color is a separate molding run. Use stock packaging or a stock box with a label rather than a printed color box. Keep the cartridge media to a standard blend. Add the refill SKU and the printed box on the second order, once the head sells.

Split variants raise the effective minimum: 500 units across five colors is five small runs, not one. The same total across one model and one color is a single run, which is what makes the low tier possible.

When the quantity is smaller than 500

ZHONGHE does not accept orders below about 500 units, does not sell at retail and does not sell single pieces. If your first quantity is smaller, the practical routes are to bring it into one model and one finish at the 500-unit tier, or to stage the program: a first run of about 500 on stock packaging, then custom packaging at the 2,000-unit tier.
