Oolong Tea: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $4.54 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $3.11 at volume, on a typical 21-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 oolong tea, the drivers are solubility, sweetened or unsweetened, flavor, powder granulation, caffeine level, pack size, raw vs ripe, compression format — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published US-facing bulk retail and wholesale tea sellers place loose oolong around $14.28/lb and $34-$148 per package depending on grade and format, while trade-market references show roughly $1.41-$8.82/lb in recent US import/market data, so true B2B tea-leaf pricing is driven mainly by origin, cultivar, oxidation style, and leaf grade rather than any one universal wholesale ladder. For mid-range custom-printed bulk orders, the most realistic routes are direct import/trade suppliers, US tea wholesalers, or marketplace exporters quoting per-kg/moq prices; custom print, tea bagging, flavoring, sweetening, instant-powder processing, and tighter caffeine specs generally move price upward, while larger MOQs mainly improve landed unit cost.
