Underwear MOQ & Minimum Order Quantity Explained
MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is often the first barrier between a brand and their manufacturing partner. Here’s what you need to know about underwear MOQs — and how to negotiate them.
Why MOQs Exist
- Fabric Minimums: Mills require minimum fabric orders (typically 500-1,000 kg per color).
- Production Efficiency: Machine setup and line changeover costs are fixed regardless of order size.
- Trim and Labeling: Custom waistbands, labels, and packaging have their own minimums.
Unitex MOQ Policy
- Standard MOQ: 2,000 pcs per style and colour.
- Multi-Style Orders: MOQ can be split across 2-3 styles sharing the same fabric.
- Trial Orders: 1,000 pcs available for first-time partners (premium pricing applies).
