Check your order against Kiwi Giyim's 250-piece-per-colour minimum and read the total units and total order value in one place. The MOQ is a real rule; the unit price is whatever your quote says — so you enter it, and nothing here is invented.
⚠️ The MOQ and the arithmetic are firm; the price is yours to enter. The 250-piece per colour, per size minimum is a real Kiwi Giyim rule, and the total-units and order-value math is exact — no error margin. The unit price is not fixed: it's whatever your quote says for your exact spec, so we don't pre-fill a made-up figure. Enter your quoted price to see the order value.
250 pieces is the floor for every colour and every size. Two colours across four sizes is a 2 × 4 × 250 = 2,000-piece minimum, not 250 split up. The check flags any colour under the line.
It isn't one sample — it's colours × units per colour. That total is what production is costed, scheduled and invoiced against, so plan the whole run.
There's no honest fixed price for knitwear without a tech pack. Enter your quoted unit price and the order value follows exactly from it; nothing is assumed.
Below 250 per colour a dye lot can't be opened economically. Add units or drop a colour until every colourway clears 250, then the order is viable.
No black box. The calculator runs exactly three lines:
Total units = colours × units per colour Order value = total units × unit price MOQ rule: at least 250 per colour, per size The two formulas are exact arithmetic — no error margin. The only variable that needs a real number is your unit price, which comes from a quote against your tech pack. The 250 per colour, per size MOQ is a firm Kiwi Giyim rule, not an estimate.

Our MOQ is 250 pieces per colour, per size. Each size is its own 250-piece minimum, so a single style in one colour across five sizes is already 5 × 250 = 1,250. Enter the all-sizes total you plan per colour (at least 250 per size); the calculator multiplies it by your number of colours to show the order total and flags any colour below the 250 floor.
Total order value = total units × unit price, where total units = number of colours × units per colour. For example, 3 colours × 300 pieces × $22 per piece = $19,800. The unit price is whatever your supplier quotes for your exact spec, which is why this tool asks you to enter it — there is no honest fixed price for knitwear without a tech pack.
Each colour is a separate dye lot, and each size is knitted from its own machine programme. The 250-piece minimum covers the set-up cost of one colour in one size, so adding colours or sizes multiplies the minimum rather than diluting it. Two colours across four sizes is 2 × 4 × 250 = 2,000 pieces, and so on.
No — the 250 minimum is per colour and per size, not a single pool you divide. Each size is knitted from its own machine programme, so an XS to XXL run in one colour is a separate 250-piece minimum for every size. Our size run calculator helps you plan the ratio between sizes once each one clears 250.
