There are several companies that manufacture powder coating powders. Dupont, PPG, NIC, Tiger Drylac, Sherwin Williams, & 3M are some popular manufactures. However, large companies like these prefer to sell large quantities of powder. It is not practical for them to mess around with selling 1lb here and 1lb there. Some of their "sample sizes" are 50lb boxes. As a small, custom powder coater, you will probably not want 50lbs of any one color so ordering directly from these companies isn't practical. Luckily there are companies out there that buy these powders in the large quantities and re-sell them in much smaller quantities. This allows you to buy powders in 1lb quantities, and in some cases, even 1/2lb quantities. The average price for a pound of powder is about $12 and 1 pound can go a long way.
