Stirrer: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.04 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.01 at volume, on a typical 30-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 stirrer, the drivers are diameter, length, material, individually wrapped, pointed tip, flexibility, paper grade, flute style — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published bulk quotes for compostable/wood stirrers cluster around about $0.03-$0.05 per piece at 50-999 cartons and about $0.03-$0.04 at 1,000-1,999 cartons, with larger wholesale listings showing roughly $0.01-$0.015 per piece at very high MOQ. The biggest price moves come from material choice (wood vs. PLA/paper), whether the stirrer is individually wrapped or custom printed, and carton/case pack size; custom print and lower-volume US-facing trade channels usually raise the per-unit price. Realistic sourcing routes are import/direct-from-manufacturer platforms and foodservice wholesalers; landed-equivalent pricing tends to sit above the lowest FOB quotes once freight, duties, and domestic handling are included.
