Energy Gel: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.55 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.18 at volume, on a typical 45-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For energy gel, the drivers are carbohydrate source, sugar ratio, flavor system, sachet or bulk pack size, electrolyte inclusion, carb grams, texture, coating — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale marketplace quotes for energy gel cluster around $0.20-$0.80 per stick-equivalent on Alibaba-style supplier listings, while broader OEM/private-label market summaries place mainstream bulk formulas around $8-$18 per kg and premium caffeine/electrolyte/organic variants higher. Price moves most with pack size, carbohydrate load, caffeine/electrolytes, flavor complexity, and whether the route is a true custom OEM/private-label run versus a stocked branded product; US-facing sourcing is most realistic through contract manufacturers, importers, or marketplace OEM suppliers rather than domestic branded distributors.
