In short
MOQ, the minimum order quantity, is the first question most wholesale bedding buyers ask because it shapes upfront cost, risk on a new design and how much you can customize. Factories set one to make production viable. Work within a typical 100-set minimum by mixing sizes, sampling first, and balancing MOQ against price and lead time.
MOQ is the first question every wholesale bedding buyer asks. Here's a clear B2B answer, and how to make a 100-set minimum work.
"What's your MOQ?" is usually the first question a wholesale bedding buyer asks — and for good reason. The minimum order quantity shapes your upfront cost, your risk on a new design and how much you can customize. This guide explains what MOQ really means for custom bedding and how to make a sensible first order.
What MOQ actually means
MOQ (minimum order quantity) is the smallest quantity a factory will produce for a given style. It exists because setting up a production run — warping looms, color matching, printing screens or jacquard plates, and QC — has fixed costs that only make sense above a certain volume. Below that, per-unit pricing and quality control become impractical.
Our MOQ: 100 sets per style
We work to a 100-set minimum per style. That's deliberately low for a source factory — it lets small and mid-size importers, private-label brands and e-commerce sellers test a design without committing to a full container. We are wholesale-only and don't accept individual retail or single-piece orders.
Why factories set an MOQ
- Setup costs (color matching, printing/jacquard plates, line changeover) are fixed per run.
- Consistent quality control needs a meaningful batch to inspect against.
- Fabric and trims are often ordered to minimums from the mill.
- Below a threshold, factory-direct pricing simply can't beat a marketplace reseller.
Does the MOQ change for OEM/ODM customization?
The 100-set base applies per style. Heavier customization — a fully bespoke weave, an exclusive print or special trims — can carry its own minimums, but color matching, sizing, logo labels and packaging usually fit within the standard MOQ. Tell us your exact customization and target market and we'll confirm what's feasible at your volume.
How to work within a 100-set MOQ
- Split the 100 across sizes (e.g. Twin/Full/Queen/King) within one style rather than spreading across many styles.
- Start with one or two proven bestseller designs instead of a wide range.
- Sample first — confirm hand-feel, color and construction on a physical sample before bulk.
- Plan reorders: once a design sells, repeat runs are simple from locked mill capacity.
MOQ, price and lead time
Larger volumes generally improve per-unit pricing and can shorten the per-piece overhead, while in-stock programs ship faster than made-to-order styles. Balance your first-order size against cash flow and how confident you are in the design — a focused 100-set test order is often smarter than over-committing on an unproven SKU.
A low MOQ isn't about buying less — it's about testing smart, then scaling the designs that sell.
