The main costs are the batch itself and its supporting elements:<\/p>\n<h3>1. Product manufacturing<\/h3>\n<p>The cost per capsule\/tablet depends on ingredients, dosages and quantity. More expensive ingredients (standardised extracts, specific forms) raise the unit cost but also the perceived value. Larger batches lower the per-unit price.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Packaging<\/h3>\n<p>Bottles, blisters, doypacks or sachets each have a different cost. Add caps, seals and secondary packaging (a box) if you plan to use one.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Labels and design<\/h3>\n<p>A one-off cost for graphic design and a recurring one for printing labels. Quality design is an investment \u2014 it sells on the shelf.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Documentation and regulation<\/h3>\n<p>Notification to the authorities, laboratory analyses and correct documentation. A good manufacturing partner handles much of this.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Logistics and storage<\/h3>\n<p>Transport, warehousing and order handling. Also plan working capital for the next batch.<\/p>\n<h2>How to optimise your start<\/h2>\n<p>Begin with 1\u20133 products and a quantity you can realistically sell within a few months. This protects your capital and lets you learn from the market before scaling. Working with a manufacturer that offers flexible minimum quantities significantly lowers the barrier to entry.<\/p>\n<h2>Ready for the next step?<\/h2>\n<p>As an EU-licensed manufacturer, <strong>Evelin 29<\/strong> produces food supplements under your own brand \u2014 from formula to a finished, labelled product. <a href=\"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/kontakt\/\">Contact us for a consultation<\/a> or browse our <a href=\"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/\">catalogue of 100+ products<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A realistic breakdown of the costs of launching your own supplement brand \u2014 manufacturing, packaging, labels, documentation and logistics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":11423,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","_jet_sm_ready_style":"","_jet_sm_style":"","_jet_sm_controls_values":"","_jet_sm_fonts_collection":"","_jet_sm_fonts_links":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[92],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11662","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11662"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11850,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11662\/revisions\/11850"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11423"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11662"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/evelin29.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
