The minimum order quantity for blank leather patch will depend on the supplier or manufacturer you choose. Typical MOQs range from 50 to 500 pieces, depending on several factors:
Patch size:
Larger patches typically have higher MOQs since they require more custom leather patch and take up more space on the production runs.
Patch material:
Top grain or full grain leather patches tend to have higher MOQs than synthetic leather or split leather patches. This is because natural leather is more expensive.
Patch complexity:
Simple round or square patches have lower MOQs than patches with special shapes, folds, or multiple layers.
Supplier:
Large, high-volume manufacturers tend to have lower MOQs than smaller specialty shops.
Your location:
If you’re located outside the supplier’s main market, they may require a higher MOQ to make the order worthwhile.
Some examples of common MOQs:
3″ round top grain leather patches: 100 to 250 pieces
4″ x 2″ synthetic leather patches: 50 to 150 pieces
6″ x 4″ leather embossed patches: 200 to 500 pieces
Multi-layer leather logo patches: 250 to 500 pieces
Ultimately, the best way to know the minimum order quantity for your specific blanks is to contact potential suppliers and ask them directly. Provide them the details of your request:
• Patch size
• Material (leather type)
• Any special features (shape, folds, layers, embossed, etc.)
• Your rough design concept, if applicable
• Desired leather color
• Location
They can then provide you with their production minimums based on those specifics. MOQs will vary significantly between suppliers so it’s important to get quotes from multiple options.
