What moves the price
For carton, the drivers are dimensions, board grade, divider type, print method — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published wholesale pricing for beverage-alcohol cartons is sparse, but supplier listings for standard 1-pack/2-pack/3-pack bottle cartons and shipper-style cartons show roughly $1.24 to $3.65 per unit at small wholesale packs, with stronger discounts at higher purchase brackets. Realistic routes are packaging specialists selling standard die-lines with custom print, or import/landed-equivalent sourcing through B2B marketplaces; price moves mainly with board grade, structural inserts/dividers, print coverage, and whether the carton is a simple folding carton versus a heavier shipper or display-ready case box.
