3 Key Points of Choosing Your Supplement OEM Partner
Minimum Order Quantity
One of the most important points in supplement OEM is, the minimum quantity you are able to order.
Producing in large volumes enables companies to keep costs per unit at low levels. Producing in small volumes, on the other hand, come with much lower risk.
For companies that are already experienced in the market and confident in their sales channels, we recommend increasing the volume to keep the costs per unit as low as possible. However, the majority of the inquiries we get are from first-timers who want to start small and see how it works out before making huge sums of investments and keeping massive inventories.
2. Experience in supplement manufacturing
As health supplement manufacturers in Malaysia are booming in recent years, the level of experience is often lower than required. We think it is important to choose manufacturers that have been in the supplement manufacturing business for decades.
3. inventory of ingredients
There are many different kinds of ingredients and raw materials in the sector and it is unrealistic to expect each manufacturer to hold an inventory of every single one of them. Some factories, however, tend to be more lacking than others in this field. If the company does not seem to have most of the ingredients you desire, then it will be hard to work on the product formulation.
However, if they only lack some of them -which is very expected-, you should ask if they can help you to source those raw materials instead. We are willing to procure the raw materials on behalf of you and store them for the next batches.
