Why is the minimum order higher than on other soft lures?
Short answer
Our one sampled luminous shrimp sabiki listing runs at MOQ 1,000 pieces, the top of our sampled soft-lure range, where other soft lures in the same sample start at MOQ 50 pieces. The reason is assembly rather than moulding.
In detail
A bait rig is a tied product: hooks, droppers, swivels, beads, a leader and a retail sleeve, all assembled by hand, so the setup cost per colorway and per hook size has to be spread over a larger run before the unit price works.
