How much do bulk custom patches cost at 500 and 1,000 pieces?
Bulk embroidered patches from Panda Patches cost $750 at 500 pieces ($1.50 each) and $1,200 at 1,000 pieces ($1.20 each), dropping to $0.91 per piece for a 2-inch design at 1,000. Other types at 500 pieces: woven $1,200, PVC $1,400, leather $1,200. Every bulk price includes free worldwide shipping, a free digital mockup in 12 to 24 hours, unlimited free revisions, and no setup or digitizing fees — there are no hidden charges added at checkout. Per-piece cost keeps falling as volume rises, so a single 1,000-piece run is meaningfully cheaper than four 250-piece reorders. For orders above 10,000 pieces, pricing is quoted directly and often includes a small free overage (roughly 1%) to cover any defects so you never have to reorder to replace a few pieces.
What is the minimum order for wholesale patch pricing?
Panda Patches has an overall minimum of just 5 pieces, and wholesale bulk pricing begins at 50 pieces, improving again at 100, 500, and 1,000-plus. This is a real advantage: most patch manufacturers set their minimum at 50 to 100 pieces, so small teams, startups, and emerging brands are often forced to over-order. With a 5-piece floor you can sample quality first, then scale into wholesale tiers on the reorder with your price locked in. Distributors, ASI members, and resellers can also access special wholesale rates, white-label and blind shipping, and Net 15/30 payment terms after a few completed projects. Whether you need 50 patches for a team or 50,000 for a national rollout, the same free-mockup, no-setup-fee process applies, and returning clients get faster 7-to-10-day turnaround with saved artwork.
Do bulk orders include a free sample and mockup?
Yes. Every bulk order includes a free digital mockup delivered in 12 to 24 hours with unlimited free revisions, and for orders of 500 pieces or more Panda Patches ships a free physical pre-production sample so you can verify color, backing, and sizing before the full batch runs. This two-step proofing is deliberately built for volume buyers: approving a screen proof alone on several thousand pieces is a gamble, so the physical sample removes that risk at no cost. Production never begins until you approve in writing — nothing is manufactured on assumption. Smaller bulk orders under 500 can still request a physical sample for a small fee that is credited toward the order. Combined with a money-back guarantee and free reship of any flawed pieces, this is why fire departments, corporate teams, and 4,000-plus bulk clients reorder.
What is the turnaround for large bulk patch orders?
Standard bulk turnaround is 10 to 14 business days from mockup approval regardless of quantity, with rush production available for tighter deadlines. Orders above 10,000 pieces may take 3 to 4 weeks depending on complexity. Because Panda Patches delivers the digital mockup within 12 to 24 hours, the production clock effectively starts the day you approve, which is how immovable dates get met: when Wise needed 9,600 patches for their Nasdaq bell-ringing and Times Square activation, they were designed, approved, and delivered in two shipments on May 4 and May 7, both on their contractual dates with no rush surcharge. Returning bulk clients get even faster 7-to-10-day turnaround thanks to saved artwork and locked-in specs. Every order ships with full door-to-door tracking and free worldwide shipping, so you can plan event and launch dates around a firm delivery window.
Do you offer distributor, ASI, or reseller wholesale pricing?
Yes. Panda Patches works as a behind-the-scenes patch supplier for promotional-products distributors, ASI members, and resellers, with special wholesale pricing, white-label and blind shipping, and Net 15/30 payment terms available to qualified accounts after a few completed projects. Distributor partners frequently place recurring monthly orders at locked-in volume rates, with a dedicated account manager as a single point of contact from quote to delivery. As an ASI-verified supplier, the company understands the workflow distributors need — consistent color matching across reorders, saved artwork for repeat runs, and packaging that ships under your brand, not ours. This makes it practical to resell patches at a healthy margin without holding inventory or managing production yourself. Retail-account terms differ from partner terms; ask when you request a quote and the team will confirm what your account qualifies for.

Mistakes We Talk Bulk Buyers Out Of
- Ordering short to “test,” then reordering. Per-piece price drops fast with volume — a 50-piece run and a 1,000-piece run are very different prices. If you know you need 1,000, order 1,000; splitting it into small reorders just costs you more. Want to check quality first? That is what the free pre-production sample is for, on orders of 500 or more.
- Approving a screen mockup instead of a real sample. On a few thousand pieces, signing off on a digital proof alone is a gamble. For 500+ we send a finished sample so you hold the color, backing, and size in your hand before we run the full batch.
- Forcing a detailed or AI-generated design onto embroidery at scale. Gradients and fine detail that thread cannot hold look worse multiplied across thousands of patches. We will tell you when printed or woven will hold your art better — before it is 10,000 pieces too late.
- Chasing the cheapest quote. Order one sample from them and one from us, put them side by side, and we will match their price. Same money — you will see exactly what you are getting at volume.
- Not locking the artwork for reorders. We keep your approved files on record so the next run matches the first — same color, same size, no re-proofing from scratch.
- Assuming you have to eat the defects. A roughly 1% defect rate is normal at volume, so we cover it for you — order 30,000 and we ship 30,050 to 30,100 at no extra cost, so you can swap any that aren't perfect without a reorder. Large runs can ship in one go.
