What is the wholesale minimum order quantity?

A wholesale supplier’s minimum order quantity (MOQ) is the smallest number of units that can be purchased at one time. The term “minimum order policy” is often used to describe this concept.

This restriction was put in place by suppliers to prevent them from spending time and resources on orders that would generate very little return. This approach is simple and is used by wholesalers all around the world.

Some wholesale distributors will also allow buyers to purchase a small sample of this product to ensure that it is exactly what they want, although they will most likely have to pay retail rather than wholesale.
