Customised Drawstring Bag Cost & MOQ Singapore: Bulk Pricing for Events & Giveaways
Drawstring bags are one of the most cost-effective branded items going — which is exactly why they’re ordered in the thousands for events and giveaways. But “cheap” hides a range: the same quantity can be quoted very differently depending on material, print and order size. Here’s what actually drives the price of a customised drawstring bag and how to budget a bulk run.
The 30-second version: material and print colours set the base, quantity divides it. Our minimum order is 300 pieces.
What moves the price
| Lever | Cheaper | Pricier |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Non-woven / light poly | Cotton, nylon ripstop |
| 1-colour, 1 side | Full-colour / both sides | |
| Quantity | 1,000+ pcs | At MOQ (200) |
Material is the biggest single lever — compare fabrics first in our drawstring bag materials guide.
MOQ tiers and unit cost
| Quantity | Typical use | Relative unit price |

Hidden costs to check
- Extra print colours / second side — each adds setup.
- Full-colour vs spot — sublimation costs more than 1-colour screen.
- Individual packing — polybagging for retail.
- Rush production for tight event deadlines.
Budgeting by use
For a mass event giveaway, a non-woven or light-poly bag with a 1-colour logo at 1,000+ is the value play. For school sports days and clubs, a polyester bag balances durability and cost — see ideas in our guide to drawstring bags for school & sports events.
