Mints Can: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.40 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.30 at volume, on a typical 45-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For mints can, the drivers are lining, capacity, drip-free spout, tamper evidence, print finish, light barrier, food-grade coating, diameter — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
For a mid-range custom-printed mints can, the biggest cost drivers are tooling/engraving, lid style, print coverage, and whether the tin is standard stock or fully custom in size/shape. Realistic supplier routes are promotional tin decorators, offshore metal-packaging factories, and candy-packagers that co-pack mints into stock or custom tins; unit pricing drops sharply with volume because setup and decoration costs amortize. The published wholesale mints/tin pricing in the supplied sources is mostly for filled retail tins rather than empty custom cans, so these bands are best treated as landed-equivalent estimates anchored to real wholesale tin and mint pack pricing
