Understanding Shop4Shops MOQs, Sizes and Ratios

Understanding Shop4Shops MOQs, Sizes and Ratios

One of the biggest challenges for clothing retailers and shopkeepers when they procure clothing from wholesalers involves visiting badly lit and dusty godowns to randomly picking the stocks from the huge piles of clothes lying in a very unorganized fashion. For the first time in India, Shop4shops, the country’s leading wholesaler based out of Tiruppur, has made this transparent for the buyers—when they buy stock, they know exactly what they are getting in terms of sizes. 

What are MOQs, sizes, and ratios in Shop4Shops?

  • MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is the smallest or least order quantity that any buyer can order from the wholesaler for an item. 
  • Sizes in wholesale buying mean the varied sizes that are included in an MOQ  
  • Ratio is the number of pieces in each size included in an MOQ

Example 1: In this Polo t-shirt

Men’s Polo T-Shirt — Simple MOQ Explanation

1. MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) = 6 pieces

2. Available Sizes:
Small (S), Medium (M), Large (L), Extra Large (XL)

3. Doubt many shopkeepers have:
“How can 6 pieces come when there are 4 sizes?”

4. Answer:
The size ratio is 1 : 2 : 2 : 1
👉 That means, in one MOQ you’ll get:

  • 1 pc Small
  • 2 pcs Medium
  • 2 pcs Large
  • 1 pc X-Large

5. So total = 6 pieces (1+2+2+1 = 6)

Example 2: When it is value-packed with more than 1 pc, then the following example will help understand  - Consider this 4-pc pack of boys' briefs

Boys Briefs (4-Pack) – Simple Explanation

1. Each pack has 4 briefs of the same size.

So when we say “1 pack,” it means 4 briefs, not 1 piece.

2. MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) = 6 packs.

These 6 packs cover 4 sizes:

  • 5–6 years → 1 pack
  • 6–8 years → 1 pack
  • 8–10 years → 2 packs
  • 10–12 years → 2 packs

3. Size Ratio = 1 : 1 : 2 : 2

That means, in every MOQ:

  • You’ll get 1 pack of 5–6 yrs,
  • 1 pack of 6–8 yrs,
  • 2 packs of 8–10 yrs,
  • 2 packs of 10–12 yrs.

4. Total briefs in one MOQ:

  • 6 packs × 4 briefs = 24 briefs in total

Informed and transparent wholesale shopping experience

No confusion, no guesswork!

Every pack shows exactly how many pieces and what sizes you’ll get.

The size mix is fair and even — giving Shop4Shops resellers a real edge in selling.
