If you run a pet shop, cattery, grooming salon, vet clinic or online pet store in Malaysia, cat litter is one of your highest turnover consumables. Buying it at the right wholesale price, with reliable supply and sensible minimum order quantities, directly affects your margin. This guide explains how cat litter wholesale works in Malaysia in 2026, what trade pricing to expect, and how to source directly from a manufacturer rather than paying a middleman markup.
Sanking is produced by MDL Distribution Sdn Bhd, a Malaysian manufacturer and distributor, which means trade buyers can order factory direct. You can see current bulk options and request a quote on our cat litter wholesale page.
Who buys cat litter wholesale in Malaysia
- Pet shops and pet supermarkets that resell to retail customers and need consistent stock and shelf margin.

How wholesale cat litter pricing works
Trade pricing is tiered: the more you order, the lower your cost per unit. Exact figures depend on pack size, carton configuration and current input costs, so always request a live quote, but the structure generally looks like this:
| Tier | Typical order volume | Pricing | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter / sample carton | 1–5 cartons | Light trade discount | New stockists testing demand |
| Standard wholesale | 6–20 cartons | Standard trade tier | Established pet shops |
| Bulk / pallet | Pallet quantities | Best per-unit price | Catteries, chains, distributors |
| Reseller / distributor | Ongoing volume contract | Negotiated rate | Regional resellers |
We deliberately do not publish fixed figures here because trade pricing moves with order size, delivery location and raw material costs. Publishing a stale number helps nobody. Instead, send your expected monthly volume and location and you will get an accurate, current quote.
Minimum order quantity (MOQ) and packaging
MOQ is set to keep logistics efficient while staying accessible to small shops. Sanking is available in 7L, 10L and 20L retail packs, cartoned for easy shelving and transport. A typical entry MOQ is a small number of cartons so a new stockist can test sell through before committing to pallet volume. Breeders and catteries usually jump straight to bulk because their own consumption justifies it.
Delivery and lead time
Because Sanking is manufactured locally by MDL Distribution, lead times for Peninsular Malaysia are short and you avoid the long import timelines and currency risk of overseas brands. Delivery is arranged nationwide, with East Malaysia handled via freight. Local manufacturing also means fresher stock on your shelf, which matters because cat owners can tell the difference between fresh and long warehoused litter.
Why buy factory direct instead of through a middleman
- Better margin. Every intermediary adds markup. Buying from the manufacturer protects your spread.
- Supply reliability. Direct relationships mean you are not fighting for stock allocation behind larger buyers.
- Fresher product. Shorter chain from factory to your shelf.
- Marketing support. A known, SEO visible brand like Sanking is easier to sell than an unbranded import, and we back it with online presence your customers can research.
How to become a Sanking reseller
- Decide your expected monthly volume and the pack sizes that suit your customers (7L and 10L move fastest in retail; 20L suits catteries).
- Head to the wholesale enquiry page and send your business details, location and volume.
- Receive a current trade quote and MOQ for your tier.
- Place your first carton order, test sell through, then scale to bulk or a distributor contract.

Why stock a branded cat litter instead of an unbranded import?
