Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ)

MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is the lowest number of units a manufacturer will agree to produce per order. Manufacturers set MOQs to ensure that production setup costs, material procurement, and labor expenses are covered, making the production run financially viable.

MOQs vary significantly by product type, manufacturing process, and supplier. High-volume injection molding might require MOQs of 5,000+ units, while CNC machined parts may have MOQs as low as 50. When sourcing through Speya (formerly Find My Factory), MOQ is one of the most important filters for matching brands with suitable production partners.
