📦 Why MOQ Matters When Ordering Custom Apparel in Bulk

📦 Why MOQ Matters When Ordering Custom Apparel in Bulk

If you're starting or scaling your clothing brand, you've likely heard the term MOQ — but understanding how it works and why it matters can make or break your business decisions.

At Multypros, we make clothing manufacturing easy and flexible with low MOQs starting from just 10 pieces. Here's why MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is one of the most important terms you need to understand in the apparel business.


✅ What Is MOQ?

MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) refers to the smallest number of units a manufacturer requires to begin production. This could apply to:

  • Per design

  • Per color

  • Per size range

  • Per logo print or packaging option

Every supplier or factory sets their own MOQ based on materials, labor, and production efficiency.


✅ Why MOQ Is Important for Your Clothing Business


1. Controls Your Initial Investment

With a low MOQ, you can launch or test new styles without needing huge capital.


2. Helps You Avoid Overstock

Order small to test demand — reorder bestsellers later in bulk.


3. Determines Supplier Fit

Not all factories offer flexible MOQs. Multypros works with startups and growing brands, offering MOQs as low as 10 pieces.


4. Affects Pricing

The more you order, the lower your cost per unit. But low MOQ allows you to start small while building your audience.


5. Impacts Customization Options

Custom labels, tags, embroidery, and packaging may require higher MOQ to cover setup and materials.
