Building a successful bubble tea cafe isn't just about delicious drinks — it's also about flawless logistics. When your business generates serious revenue, the question of supply stability becomes a top priority. BobaBit is your reliable partner in the world of ingredients 🥤. We have designed our wholesale system to be understandable, beneficial, and scalable — for newcomers as well as large chains.

01 — Minimum Order

Minimum Order — Flexibility for Your Growth 📈

We understand that businesses vary: from small mall locations to large cafe chains. That's why BobaBit follows a clear approach to Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ). This helps you avoid excess inventory and ensures maximum product freshness.

Want to know which products offer the best returns? Read our guide to the Top 5 Bubble Tea Drinks: Start, Margin & Recipes.

Product Category Minimum Unit (Wholesale) Packaging Details
Popping Boba (Juiceballs) from 4–8 buckets 3.2 kg buckets (net weight)
Tapioca (Pearls) from 10–15 kg 1 kg or 3 kg vacuum bags
Dry Mixes / Creamer from 5–10 kg 1 kg hermetic bags
Syrups and Concentrates from 6 bottles 1.3 kg bottles / 5 kg canisters
Tea (Base) from 2 kg Single-origin tea in professional packaging

Mixed Orders

One of our biggest advantages is the ability to mix items. You don't have to order a box of a single syrup flavor or one type of tapioca pearls. You can put together an order from different categories:

  • Popping Boba in various flavors (e.g., 2 strawberry buckets + 2 mango buckets)
  • Dry mixes for milkshakes
  • Tea bases and fruit toppings
💡

BobaBit Tip: To start, choose 3 top flavors of Popping Boba (strawberry, mango, blueberry) and classic tapioca. This covers 80% of customer preferences.

02 — Payment

Payment Methods — Transparency and Financial Security 💳

Financial discipline is the foundation of a successful partnership. At BobaBit, we offer several convenient payment formats suitable for both small businesses and large enterprises.

  • Bank Transfer (with and without VAT): after placing your order, you will receive an invoice. All documents (delivery notes, quality certificates) will be delivered with the goods.
  • Payment to Business Account: a fast and convenient method for small businesses — the order can be processed immediately.
  • Prepayment and Reservation: for new customers, we work with full or partial prepayment. This secures scarce items in stock for your request.
  • Conditions for Regular Customers: after 3–6 months of stable cooperation, individual conditions are possible: deferred payment or individual delivery schedules.
💡

BobaBit Tip: Payment by bank transfer is not only official and secure but also simplifies your accounting as you scale. Learn more about how to open a bubble tea shop — step by step.

03 — Delivery

Delivery — From Local Warehouse to Your Door 🚚

BobaBit's logistics are designed to minimize waiting times. We know that the absence of tapioca or popping boba in stock for even one day means lost revenue for your business.

Bulk Orders (Pallet) Freight Forwarder by Arrangement 7–14 business days Special rates possible

💡

BobaBit Tip: Plan your order 3–4 days before you run out of ingredients. A small safety stock will save you during holidays or logistical bottlenecks.

04 — Packaging

Packaging and Labeling — Guarantee of Product Integrity 📦

Bubble tea products require special care in packaging. Syrups and popping boba are liquids in plastic containers that need reliable protection from pressure and temperature fluctuations.

🏷️ Factory Marking

Production date, best before date (batch no.), and composition according to ISO standards.

📦 Reinforced Protection

Five-layer cardboard boxes, internal dividers, bubble wrap, and professional stretch wrapping on pallets.

⚠️ Fragility Control

Boxes with popping boba are marked with "Fragile" stickers and "This Way Up" indicators.

🔄 Quality Guarantee

In case of damage during delivery — photo/video with the carrier, damage report, quick replacement.

💡

BobaBit Tip: Store popping boba in a cool place, away from direct sunlight — this preserves their perfect shape and "explosive" flavor. More about the correct storage of bubble tea ingredients.
