How to Source Air Bar Box S: Minimum Order Quantity
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Minimum order quantity is the first commercial filter in any Box S sourcing conversation.
Buyers who treat minimum order quantity as a commercial discipline rather than an afterthought tend to hold margin for longer.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Box S.
Why minimum order quantity matters on the Box S
The minimum usually applies per SKU rather than per order, which shapes flavour planning.
Cash flow is the quiet constraint behind minimum order quantity: the cheapest option is rarely the one that frees the most working capital.
Mixing flavours within one model is often allowed at carton level.

Checklist
- Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
- Review the reorder point after one full selling cycle.

- Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
- Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
- Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
Commercial terms
Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
| Volume tier | Indicative unit level | Lead time |
|---|---|---|
| Carton (164 units) | Tier 1 | 7-12 days |
| Pallet (1268 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
| Container (14395 units) | Tier 3 | 21-30 days |
