Custom Paper Coffee Cups are full-color printed paper cups for coffee shops, cafes, food trucks, and offices that want their brand in every customer's hand. Printed on paper cup stock, each cup turns a daily drink into a walking ad for your shop.
A branded cup gets carried out the door and seen by everyone the customer passes, so your logo earns impressions long after the sale, and a clean wrap-around print makes a small shop look established. Reach for them at the espresso bar, the catering station, or the office break room - a smart pick for a cafe that wants its name visible across town.

Paper Cup Wholesale Tiers Explained
Paper cups are formed from a printed sidewall blank rolled onto a base disc, so artwork must respect the seam line. Common pours run 8, 12, and 16 ounces, and the board carries an interior moisture liner that keeps the wall firm through a long drink.
| Cup count | Wholesale pointers for paper cups |
|---|---|
| 50 | Sampler tier; confirm lid fit with your existing stock first. |
| 500 | A cart or kiosk typically cycles through this in weeks. |
| 1,000 | Sleeve pairing gets quoted alongside so brands match. |
| 5,000 | Sidewall blanks nest efficiently, improving board usage. |
| 10,000+ | Roastery chain quantities, listed from about $0.44 per unit at volume. |
Calendar guidance rather than a pledge: in-house eligible cup jobs finish in the neighborhood of 7 business days, while specialty imported formats need as long as 12 weeks. US delivery on cup orders carries no charge whatsoever. Provide ounce sizes, wall spec, artwork, and case volume when asking for pricing.
