Buying Wet Wipes by the Case: How Trade Pricing Works

If you are new to buying wet wipes wholesale, the pricing can feel opaque. Understanding how trade pricing works helps you compare suppliers properly and protect your margin on every order.

Case pricing, not unit pricing

Wholesale wet wipes are sold by the case, and each case contains a set number of packs. A 12 x 100 case, for example, holds twelve packs of 100 wipes. To compare suppliers fairly, work out the cost per pack, not just the headline case price.

How trade prices are set

Trade prices are lower than retail because you are buying volume and handling your own resale. The more predictable and regular your ordering, the better a supplier can serve you, which is why trade accounts exist: they formalise the relationship and unlock genuine wholesale pricing.

Protecting your margin

  • Compare cost per pack across suppliers, not case totals.
  • Factor delivery into your true landed cost.
  • Stock fast movers deep and slow movers shallow.
  • Reorder before you run out to avoid emergency retail top-ups.

Opening a trade account

A trade account is simply a way for a wholesaler to verify your business and give you consistent pricing. At Peak Trading, opening one takes a few minutes: you share your business details and we set you up with genuine case pricing and next-day DPD delivery across mainland UK.
