Disposable Gloves MOQ: 100 Boxes vs 500 Cases, Which Is Better?
Compare small MOQ disposable glove orders and large case orders for distributors, importers, private label buyers and new product testing.
MOQ can change the whole purchasing decision. Some buyers want 500 cases or a full container, while others only want to test 100 boxes first. Neither choice is automatically better. The right MOQ depends on market demand, cash flow, storage space, shipping plan and how familiar the buyer is with the product.
| Buyer point | What to check |
|---|---|
| When 100 boxes makes sense | A 100-box order is useful for new buyers, small distributors, local cleaning suppliers, beauty salons or private label buyers testing a new product. It reduces risk and allows the buyer to check quality before scaling. |
| When 500 cases makes sense | A larger order usually makes sense when the buyer already has sales channels, repeat customers or a confirmed tender. Large orders can improve unit cost and shipping efficiency, but they require more planning. |
| Carton calculation | With standard packing of 10 boxes per carton, 100 boxes equals 10 cartons. This is easy to understand for sample market testing, warehouse planning and freight discussions. |
| OEM packaging effect | Private label packaging may require more preparation than a standard order. Even if MOQ starts from 100 boxes, artwork, printing and carton marks should be confirmed before production. |

Practical purchasing note
For a first order, a lower MOQ is often smarter. Once product-market fit is proven, the buyer can move toward larger cases or container-level purchasing. For EASTGLOVES buyers, the basic order framework is clear: MOQ starts from 100 boxes, one carton normally contains 10 boxes, OEM customized packaging is supported, samples can usually be sent within 1 day after details are confirmed, and mixed PPE products can be discussed in one inquiry.
When you contact Amy, include the product type, size, color, target quantity, destination country and whether you need private label packaging. If you already have a carton requirement, barcode, label wording or document checklist, send those details at the beginning. This helps the quotation reflect your real buying condition instead of a generic online price.
