Launching a paddle board brand used to mean big investment, large inventory, and long wait times. But not anymore. In 2025, more B2B buyers-from new entrepreneurs to rental businesses-are discovering a smarter way to start: working with a flexible, reliable manufacturer like Ridewave.

With low minimum order quantities (MOQs), quick lead times, and strong branding support, Ridewave helps businesses launch faster and with less risk. This blog explores why Ridewave is the go-to choice for B2B brands looking to get started fast.

What Is MOQ and Why It Matters for B2B Buyers

MOQ (Minimum Order Quantity) is the lowest number of products a manufacturer is willing to produce in a single order. For most traditional paddle board factories, this number is often 200, 300, or more per design. That's a huge commitment-especially for new businesses.

High MOQs mean:

Higher upfront costs

Larger warehouse needs

More cash tied up in inventory

Less flexibility to test or iterate

For B2B buyers who want to launch lean, test new designs, or enter seasonal markets, this can be a big problem.

Ridewave offers a solution: low MOQs starting from just 20 boards per model, making it easier for small brands to launch without the heavy burden of large stock.

 

Ridewave's Low MOQ Advantage

Ridewave has been in the inflatable SUP industry for over a decade. One reason we're trusted by over 200+ brands worldwide is our ability to offer flexible MOQ options without compromising quality.

This low-MOQ policy helps:
