Can we mix several charger models in one order to reach the MOQ?

Main answer · Wecent Editorial Team

Short answer: Possibly, but ask how the MOQ is defined. A factory may set a minimum per order, per model, or per custom element such as colour, logo or box design. Mixed orders are common when the custom work is shared, for example one box design and one logo for all models. Confirm with Wecent how the 200-piece MOQ applies to your mix.

Why MOQs exist per element

Each custom element has its own set-up cost: a colour batch of plastic, a print plate or laser program for the logo, and a print run for packaging. Production lines also have changeover time between models. MOQs reflect these costs. If three models share a box design and logo, the set-up is shared too; if each has its own, costs multiply.

Ways to make a mixed order work

• Use one packaging design with a model sticker or printed variant panel.
• Use the same logo method and position on all models.
• Keep stock colours (black or white) for the smaller models and custom colour only where volume justifies it.
• Accept a small surcharge per model below its own minimum, if offered.

Questions to ask

1. Is the 200-piece MOQ per order, per model, per colour or per packaging design?
2. What’s the surcharge for a model below its own minimum, if any?
3. Can packaging be printed in a larger run and stored for the next order?
4. Are lead times different for each model, and will the order ship together?

Is a mixed first order a good idea?

It lets you test a range rather than one SKU. The trade-off is less depth per model: 100 units each gives limited data on each one. If one model is your hero, consider weighting the order toward it.

Timing

Different models can have different lead times, depending on component stock and line scheduling. Ask whether the factory ships the mix together or splits it.

Documents for each model

Each model needs its own reports, labels and declarations. A mixed order triples the document work, even if the volume is small. Budget time for that, and confirm with Wecent which models already have reports that can carry your brand.
