Air Bar Box Max: Minimum Order Quantity for Distributors
Published 2026 · VapeWholesaleHub trade desk
Minimum order quantity is the first commercial filter in any Box Max sourcing conversation.
A range review that ignores minimum order quantity will often produce a confident decision and a disappointing quarter on the Box Max.
In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Box Max.
Why minimum order quantity matters on the Box Max
The minimum usually applies per SKU rather than per order, which shapes flavour planning.
The most common mistake is optimising for the first order instead of the fourth, which is where Box Max economics actually settle.
Mixing flavours within one model is often allowed at carton level.
