Matcha MOQ Explained: Bulk Bags, Pouches and 30g Tins
MOQ belongs to a product and packing route. A 1kg bag is not a universal 1kg minimum; selected pouch discussions at 50–100 units and a selected 240-tin route are different procurement options.

Compare packing routes.
| Route | Format | Order quantity | Production / preparation | Scope |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard bulk bags | 1kg bags on selected routes | Kagoshima Latte: usual 5kg minimum. Other product minimums are quoted separately. | Product-specific preparation and dispatch date | A 1kg bag is a pack size, not a universal order minimum. |
| Stock pouch + brand label | Selected 30g or 50g projects | Selected pouch projects can be discussed at 50–100 units. | Packing schedule in your quotation | Product, size, final minimum and label-supply responsibilities depend on the packing route. |
| 30g pull-top tin | Silver or black; selected route | Quoted minimum: 240 tins | Indicative production: 3–4 weeks | Route includes tin, filling, label printing and application. Start conditions, eligible tea, material stock and SKU/design splits are checked in the formal quote. Transit is separate. |
| Custom-printed packaging | Direct printing on the pack | Material and finished-product minimums quoted separately | Artwork, material production and filling quoted separately | Separate packaging route; not the same conditions as a stock pouch with a label. |
| Starter / build-your-own kit | Select matcha, tools, box and branding | Consultation and quotation | Component sourcing, assembly and dispatch quoted separately | No fixed finished-kit price, stock, minimum or guarantee of all components. |
50–100 units applies to selected pouch discussions. It does not apply to every tea, tin, organic finished product or SKU.

MOQ questions.
Can all matcha be private-labeled at 50 units?
No. The 50–100-unit discussion applies to selected pouch routes, products and sizes.
Does 3–4 weeks mean arrival?
No. It is an indicative production period for a selected 30g tin route. Start conditions and international transit are agreed separately.
What changes when I split designs?
Confirm the minimum for each SKU or design in the formal quote; do not divide the quoted tin minimum automatically.
