What Pressed Candy is and how it is packed
Pressed Candy (YMX-165) is a pressed candy (Value Line) line: 12 g/jar × 30 pcs × 20 display boxes. The current pack route is 30 pcs × 20 display boxes/carton, with cartons at 40 × 23 × 31 cm (about 0.029 CBM per carton, roughly 981 cartons per 20ft container and 2033 per 40ft).
Start from the exact Pressed Candy product page so the supplier is pricing the same item you are reviewing. Use the product catalog if you later want to compare Pressed Candy with other pressed candy formats.
Where Pressed Candy fits in a buyer’s program
This line carries market tags for Africa / West Africa, so it is typically shortlisted for those channels and geographies.
Within the category, it belongs to the Value Line group, which affects how retailers and distributors slot the item on shelf and how the pack competes at the price point. For a pressed candy program, the buyer should confirm whether the first order is a stock-style test, a display-box program, or part of a mixed container — each route changes MOQ, artwork, and carton planning.
Before shortlisting, confirm three things:
- which pack route your channel actually needs (30 pcs × 20 display boxes/carton)
- the minimum carton quantity and MOQ basis for this line
- whether the first order is stock-style, private label, or a mixed-container test
The container-ready shortlist guide walks this narrowing step, and the supplier comparison guide keeps the candidate comparison fair.
Carton and container planning
The 40 × 23 × 31 cm carton works out to about 0.029 CBM, which is roughly 981 cartons per 20ft container and 2033 per 40ft at planning capacity. Candy is usually a volume-driven cargo, so carton size matters more than weight when booking freight.
Use the planning numbers, then confirm loadability with the forwarder. If the order mixes several SKUs, keep carton sizes compatible so voids stay small — the container loading guide shows the calculation and the common mistakes.
Compliance and document checks for this line
As a food line, confirm the destination-market labeling, ingredient, and certificate requirements before artwork (see the candy import certifications guide).
Every pressed candy import should collect the same core document set: Certificate of Analysis, ingredient and allergen list, health/sanitary certificate where required, Certificate of Origin, and factory certifications such as HACCP or ISO 22000. Verify the scope of each certificate against the product family and factory, and confirm destination-specific files (FDA registration, EU packaging data, halal certificates) before the first production run.
Common sourcing mistakes with this line
- Comparing unit prices before locking the same pack configuration and carton quantity
- Approving a taste sample without reviewing the commercial pack, label space, and carton fit
- Treating the first quote as final before MOQ, destination, and document needs are confirmed
- Booking freight on assumed carton sizes instead of the supplier spec sheet
- Skipping the certificate scope check and discovering a market block after production
What to confirm before the quote
| Area | What to prepare | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Product | Exact YMX-165 and pack configuration (30 pcs × 20 display boxes/carton) | Stops the supplier from quoting a different item |
| Packaging | Carton size (40 × 23 × 31 cm) and route | Changes MOQ, artwork, and freight math |
| Quantity | Trial order and repeat target | Makes the MOQ and price tiers realistic |
| Destination | Country, channel, and compliance needs | Sets label, carton-mark, and document requirements |
| Timing | Sample deadline and launch window | Prevents late quote changes |
