Question 1

How do you make sure the manufacturing is high quality?

Accepted Answer

Every product we make runs through a GMP-certified facility. Before a batch goes into production we check the facility's certifications and site licences, test incoming ingredients for identity, and hold the finished batch until third-party lab results come back for potency, heavy metals, and microbials. You get a Certificate of Analysis with each run. Our USA partner facility is FDA-registered, and our Canadian production supports Made-in-Canada labeling.

Question 2

How much does it cost to start a supplement brand?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the path you take. A white-label run of one of our stock formulas at 1,000 units usually costs $8,000 to $12,000. A custom private-label product, where we build the formula to your spec, tends to land between $15,000 and $25,000 once you include formulation, stability testing, and regulatory work. Selling in Canada adds an NPN application, which runs $3,000 to $8,000 depending on the product. We keep the minimum at 1,000 units so you can launch without sinking capital into a 10,000-unit run. You get one quote that covers the whole build, and the price moves with formulation complexity, dosage form, and volume.

Question 3

What does a project include, and how do you charge?

Accepted Answer

One quote, one point of contact, and the whole build under it: formulation, regulatory work including Health Canada NPN, label design, manufacturing at a GMP-certified facility, third-party testing, and packaging. New clients usually pay half to start and half before shipment. A paid sample is $500, and we credit that toward your first production run. There are no retainers or per-order surprises.

Question 4

Why is your minimum order only 1,000 units?

Accepted Answer

Most contract manufacturers set their minimum at 5,000 to 10,000 units because that fits how their equipment runs. We produce across a network of GMP-certified facilities, so we can put your project on a line where a 1,000-unit batch still makes sense. That lets you test a formula, a label, and a sales channel before you commit six figures to inventory. Your per-unit cost is higher at 1,000 than at 10,000, so we walk through the reorder math with you before you decide.

Question 5

What does the process look like from idea to shelf?

Accepted Answer

We start with your target market and the claims you want to make, then draft a formula that fits the relevant monograph or safety profile. From there we handle the regulatory submission (NPN in Canada, DSHEA alignment for the US), bilingual label design, a pilot batch to confirm the blend and fill weight, third-party testing, and the full production run. You sign off at each stage. Because it all sits under one roof, you are not losing a week every time a formulator hands off to a regulatory consultant who hands off to a manufacturer.

Question 6

Can you handle regulatory compliance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We prepare Health Canada NPN applications for Canadian products and align US products with DSHEA, and we handle bilingual (English and French) label compliance, structure-function claim review, and the documentation each market asks for. It is part of the manufacturing package, not a separate consultant you have to manage.

Question 7

How do you protect our formula and IP?

Accepted Answer

Your formula stays yours. We work under NDA, keep it confidential across the facilities that produce it, and can structure the manufacturing agreement so IP ownership is spelled out and your product is not made for anyone else. A custom formula we develop for you stays exclusive to your brand.

Question 8

Who is my point of contact during production?

Accepted Answer

One project lead, from kickoff to delivery. They coordinate samples, timelines, quality control, and shipping, and they are who you call if something needs sorting out. You will not get handed between departments or vendors.

Question 9

Do you work with both startups and established brands?

Accepted Answer

Both. We work with first-time founders launching a single product and with established brands adding a line or scaling up volume. Runs start as low as 1,000 units for a pilot and go up to large production quantities once a product proves itself.
