Understanding MOQ
MOQ exists because factories need to justify production line setup, component procurement, and QC time. Factors: component supplier MOQ (battery cells, heating elements, PCBs), production line setup time (2-4 hours per changeover), customization complexity, and factory capacity utilization.
How to Negotiate Better MOQ and Pricing
Tactic 1: Start with samples, then scale (2-3 units → 100-200 → 500-1,000). Tactic 2: Group multiple products (500 Model A + 500 Model B = 1,000 total). Tactic 3: Offer to pay tooling fees ($3,000-$8,000) in exchange for lower MOQ. Tactic 4: Off-season ordering (Q1-Q2, 5-10% lower pricing). Tactic 5: Commit to annual volume (5,000+ units) for 10-15% below spot pricing and lower per-order MOQ.
