What is Contract Manufacturing?
Currently, Contract Manufacturing is considered the easiest way for a brand to manufacture their Private Label products. This is the most popular way for launching a new brand for small and medium sized businesses.
The reason behind that is the intensifying dietary supplement market competition. Based on statistics data, over the past 2 years, sales of global dietary supplement market have increased by almost 5% in monetary terms. And this trend persists along with a constantly growing number of dietary supplement brands.
Normally, it is extremely difficult for a brand to establish their own manufacturing facility. It requires substantial and even not cost-effective investments to start your own food processing and dietary supplements production, including purchasing extremely expensive machinery, renting or buying a venue, and employing and training of personnel. Which can bring the entire project to high risk levels of not succeeding, or even not launching at all. Whereas, Contract Manufacturing is a perfect option for launching a new brand, or a new line of dietary supplements: it’s fast, it’s profitable and it’s easy.
There are 2 types of contract manufacturers:
- The ones who only produce product parts
- The ones who offer turn-key solutions for their client’s projects
Working with product parts suppliers
When choosing to manage the production of your product by yourself, and sourcing several product parts suppliers, one has to take this important fact into account: there will be several companies simultaneously producing separate product parts. In case if just one supplier faces lead time delays, this inevitably leads to the entire supply chain, and therefore product launch date, delay. The product owner has to manage several productions at the same time, and make sure that nothing goes wrong all alone.
Furthermore, sourcing several separate product part suppliers will unavoidably lead to more transport, storage etc. expenses.
Working with a Contract Manufacturer, who provides a turn-key solution for your project
You will find several advantages of a full-cycle Contract Manufacturer:
- It is enough to just list your wishes regarding the functions and features of a new product;
- Product development, Samples production, Packaging design, as well as the preparation of all necessary Paperwork will be handled by a team of professional industry experts;
- No need to neither control the fulfilment of other companies’ obligations or to manage the timing of each production phase;
- All you need to do is to confirm the proposed product concept and wait until you receive the finished product.
Knowing that this will help their customers to achieve the best possible product solution, Global Health Care offers full cycle, turn-key solutions for dietary supplements and conventional foods.
Advantages of Contract Manufacturing
When deciding to launch the production of their own dietary supplements, companies and small businesses usually have to face a number of difficulties:
- Firstly, large financial investments are required for establishing a private production (including equipment, venues, raw materials, personnel etc.);
- Secondly, one has to face bureaucratic difficulties with the paperwork filling and application for product registration and certification;
- Thirdly, the company should expect vague or delayed product launch dates when handling the production alone.
Full cycle Contract Manufacturing, in contrast, has a number of obvious advantages:
1. This is an opportunity to focus on brand development and promotion
Time is priceless, and it needs to be managed properly. By handing over the process of development and manufacturing of the product to professionals, the client gets a significant advantage of more time to build the right marketing strategy and promote their brand. This is one of the most obvious benefits when working with a full cycle Contract Manufacturer.
2. Reducing production costs and expenditure management
When establishing your own private production for your product you will have to make sure the following tasks are fulfilled:
- - Production venue is arranged
- - The equipment is purchased and works properly
- - The employed personnel is qualified
- - Raw materials suppliers are trustworthy
- - The formulations are unique and workable
- - The packaging is of high quality etc.
Considerable resources must be invested to make this work. The risks are minimised when one finds a professional Contract Manufacturer. In case if the price starts to exceed the budget, you can simply change the contractor. In any case, Contract Manufacturing is a much more profitable option than trying to manage the production at your own company’s expense.
3. Quick Product launch
Contract Manufacturing is an option for those wishing to place their product on the market soon. Dietary supplement formulation development, production and registration can last a very long time if managed by the brand owner company. Sometimes, making a product from scratch lasts months, or even years. Any entrepreneur, who wishes to secure their reputation and quickly receive a high-quality product should apply for Contract Manufacturing.
4. Easier way out
When the product is launched quickly, it is easier for the product owner to assess its relevance. In case if the product does not get as much popularity among the consumers, the product owner has the opportunity to close this project avoiding big losses and eliminating the potential burden of unviable production facility.

Global Health Care possesses a vast number of original ready-made dietary supplement and conventional foods formulations in their portfolio, and is constantly developing the new ones as a part of their contract orders.

- Creation of product formula by qualified specialists and registration of this formula
- Preparation of certified materials in accordance with the formula of the product
- Document confirming that the components of the product can be consumed safely
- Production of test samples; product certification testing
- Preparation of technical documentation
- Preparation of documents for registration authorities based on the tests that have been carried out

Packaging design development
Statistical data indicates that it only takes a consumer 5 seconds to visually assess if the product leaves a genuine impression, and if they want to buy it or not.
That is exactly the reason why packaging design has to be given as much attention as the product itself. Or rather, one shouldn’t distinguish between packaging design and a product, because, in the end, the impression the final product gives to a consumer is based on the combined effect of both the product and its packaging. Experienced designers and Product managers working at Global Health Care will offer their clients the best possible packaging option and several design concepts for the client to choose for themselves.
Only after the product design concept and the product sample is confirmed, the company launches mass production.

Normally, product registration divides into the following stages:
