Tea Canister: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.45 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.28 at volume, on a typical 42-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 tea canister, the drivers are capacity, material, lid style, seal type, finish, print method, shape, material thickness — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published supplier pricing varies mostly by material (tinplate vs. stainless steel vs. bamboo), closure style (simple snap-on versus better sealing lids), and decoration method (plain stock, custom print, or premium finishes). Realistic sourcing routes are US-facing wholesale packagers for smaller runs and imported factory-direct tins for 5,000+ units; the lowest prices are usually FOB China and do not include freight, duties, or domestic warehousing. Air-tight tea canisters with custom printing tend to land near the mid-range of the cited supplier bands, while magnetic or double-lid designs and specialty finishes push pricing higher.
