Blank Cotton Tote Bags Wholesale: Buyer Checklist
EcoBag accepts bulk orders for unprinted cotton and canvas tote bags. For custom production, the published MOQ is 500 pcs per style, per colour and per size; sample timing is 3–7 working days. Confirm current specifications, production timing and freight in your written quote.
This guide is for importers, promotional distributors, print shops and brands sourcing blank cotton or canvas totes in production quantities. EcoBag can quote the bag without printing; decoration is not required. Stock availability, exact specifications, production timing and freight are confirmed in the written quotation for your order.
What to confirm before ordering blank totes
- Bag type and dimensions. Identify the tote shape, finished size and handle length. A reference photo or product code is the fastest way to agree the construction.
- Fabric. Specify cotton or canvas, the weight, the colour and any construction detail you need. The cotton page lists 8–16 oz options.
- Quantity split. State the number of pieces for each style, colour and size. The published production minimum is 500 pcs for each combination.
- Decoration. Say “blank / no printing” if you want the bags unprinted. If you may add decoration later, describe the process so the factory can confirm suitability.
- Destination and timing. Provide the delivery country/postcode and target date so freight and schedule can be quoted for the actual order.
Blank cotton and canvas bag specifications
The cotton and canvas product range shown on the cotton tote bags page includes 8–16 oz fabric options and natural or dyed colours. That page also lists the four cut sizes buyers order most often, from a mini tote to a large grocery size, and every size is cut to order. Ask for a quote against the exact style, size, colour and quantity you need rather than assuming a combination is available.

For unprinted non-woven bags, ask for a no-print quote against the specification: custom non-woven bags.
