A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.55 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.075 at volume, on a typical 35-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 mono carton, the drivers are dimensions, board caliper, braille, print colors — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published carton pricing for health/pharma packaging shows strong economies of scale: a standard 4-color SBS medicine carton is quoted around $0.38–$0.48 at 5,000 units, $0.22–$0.30 at 10,000, $0.14–$0.19 at 25,000, and $0.07–$0.10 at 100,000+ units. Supplement packaging guides also show bottle-carton pricing dropping to about $0.85 at 1,000, $0.48 at 5,000, and $0.32 at 10,000+ for a typical bottle carton format. Actual price moves mainly with carton size, board caliper, print coverage/colors, finishing, braille/embossing, and compliance features; realistic supplier routes are custom packaging converters and trade packaging brokers, with large-volume landed-equivalent import pricing tracking the lower end of the band.
