What moves the price
For paper drink carrier, the drivers are pack count, material, can diameter fit — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Quoted wholesale pricing is driven mainly by material (corrugated paper vs molded fiber), cup count/format, and whether the carrier is custom printed; suppliers also price by diameter fit and MOQ. Realistic supplier routes include China-based export suppliers quoting FOB pricing and North American distributors/resellers offering higher landed-equivalent wholesale pricing; custom logo work is often only shown at 10,000+ units. The strongest published low-MOQ evidence is from wholesale listings in CAD and USD, while the 10,000+ and 50,000+ bands are supported by factory FOB quotes
