Drawcord: wholesale price

A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.25 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.04 at volume. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

5,000–9,999 units$0.11

What moves the price

For drawcord, the drivers are material, cavity count, finish, die cut style, print coverage, width, length, reinforcement — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.

Pricing is most sensitive to material (polyester/cotton/elastic blends), whether the cord is round or flat, and whether it includes finished tips/aglets or custom printing; supplier listings for custom drawcords and drawstring cord show MOQ-based FOB prices that drop sharply at higher quantities. Realistic sourcing routes are Chinese trade platforms and apparel-component suppliers for landed-equivalent bulk pricing, plus US wholesale resellers for smaller lots; the most comparable quotes are for plain or minimally finished drawcords, so decorated/custom-printed versions would usually price higher than these bands.

Also known as: cord lacing, drawstring cord, hood cord, jogger cord, string cord.
