 * Hi everybody,
   I’m really missing an additional parameter for each item sold on
   Woocommerce: **minimum quantity**.I would like to sell some good by weight (increment
   100 g.), with a minimum quantity 500 g. So, introducing a minimum quantity (that
   I would set here to 5), would be a great improvment in my opinion.Thanks for 
   your attention

 * Hi there!
 * Thank you for sharing your thoughtful suggestion regarding a minimum quantity
   parameter per product in WooCommerce, especially for selling items by weight 
   with increments like 100g and a minimum order of 500g.
 * Currently, WooCommerce doesn’t have a built-in feature to set minimum quantities
   or weight increments directly on a per-product basis. However, you can achieve
   this functionality using plugins or customizations:
 * – **Product Quantity Increment Plugins:** There are extensions available like
   [WooCommerce Min/Max Quantities](https://woocommerce.com/products/minmax-quantities/)
   which allow you to set minimum and maximum quantities and quantity steps per 
   product.
 * – **Selling by Weight:** To sell products by weight more precisely, you might
   consider plugins such as [Measurement Price Calculator](https://woocommerce.com/products/measurement-price-calculator)
   which let you price products based on measurements including weight, length, 
   area, and volume.
 * Implementing these plugins can help you set increments (e.g., 100g) and enforce
   minimum order quantities (e.g., 500g) seamlessly on your store.
 * Also, your idea makes a lot of sense, and we agree it would be a valuable improvement
   to WooCommerce core. The best way to ensure this is considered by our product
   team is to submit it as a **feature request**.
 * You can do so here:
   👉 [https://woocommerce.com/feature-requests/woocommerce/](https://woocommerce.com/feature-requests/woocommerce/)
 * This allows other users to upvote the idea and helps our developers prioritize
   future enhancements based on demand.
 * Before you go, If you found WooCommerce helpful in setting up your store, we 
   would really appreciate it if you could leave a five-star review here: [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/#new-post](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/woocommerce/reviews/#new-post).
   Your feedback helps us improve and lets other users know how WooCommerce can 
   support their business.
