Why is it difficult for entrepreneurs to customized packaging boxes?

Published by Jaker Chen April 09,2022

Recently, we will encounter customers inquiring about customized packaging boxes below the minimum order quantity. While providing a good supplier or platform, we also hope to explain the reasons clearly.
 

Our printing factory has a minimum order quantity of 1000 pcs, and entrepreneurs’ box demand is generally less than 1000 pcs. Printing costs lower than the MOQ are unacceptable to both our customers and us.
 

Which is the best wall to customized packaging boxes for small business?

Every quotation we give to customers is based on the basic elements: material fee + printing fee + surface treatment fee + beer sticking fee + packaging fee.
1. Material cost: First of all, you need to order some additional materials to adjust the machine every time you print, which is a fixed cost. And the more materials you order, the better the price.
2. Die die fee: fixed fee, no matter how many boxes are ordered, as long as the same die die is used, the price will be the same.
3. Printing costs: there are publishing costs, ink costs, and computer costs, among which publishing costs and computer costs are fixed costs. The more orders, the more ink costs.
4. Surface treatment cost: it is also the cost of publishing, on-boarding cost, etc. The more order quantity, the increase of material cost.
5. Beer sticky fee: The cost of beer paper and glue are charged according to the order volume, but the price is charged compared to other fees.
6. Packing fee: charged according to the order quantity

 

If an entrepreneur wants to customize 500pcs for business packaging, he will have to pay the minimum start-up fee of the factory: material fee + knife mold + printing fee + packaging fee. Coupled with the current increase in transportation costs due to the pandemic, printing costs feel high. It feels like you eat 5 dollars for a fast food but only 8 dollars for a luxurious meal. The feeling of unequal value makes suppliers and small commercial packaging not bothered. Alibaba platforms such as Amazon and eBay have inventory boxes that can hardly match the entrepreneur's products, so many entrepreneurs are very helpless.
 

When we encounter entrepreneur customers in this situation, we first recommend going to a third platform like Amazon to try their luck.
