Question 1

What is the minimum order quantity at HCP Wellness?

Accepted Answer

Our MOQ starts from 1,000 to 3,000 units per SKU, depending on the product category, formulation, and packaging format. This range is deliberately kept flexible so that startups and D2C brands can launch without committing to bulk volumes, while established brands can scale up within the same facility.

Question 2

Can I start with a low MOQ and scale up later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is how most of the brands we work with operate. You can begin with a small validation batch, confirm demand in the market, and move to larger production runs as your sales stabilise. Because both models run from the same facility in Ahmedabad, scaling up does not require re-doing stability testing, re-sourcing packaging, or onboarding a new manufacturing partner.

Question 3

Can I choose from existing formulations, or do I need a custom formula?

Accepted Answer

Both options are available. You can select from our library of 3,000-plus tested formulations, which is the faster and lower-minimum route, or brief our R&D team to develop something custom to your specification. Custom formulation covers ingredients, active concentrations, fragrance, colour, and texture, and your brand retains 100 percent ownership of the resulting formula.

Question 4

How long does production take?

Accepted Answer

Typical lead time is 45 to 60 days from final formula and packaging approval through to delivery. Timelines vary with formulation complexity, packaging sourcing, and testing requirements, so we confirm a schedule for your specific project at the quotation stage.

Question 5

Do low MOQ orders get the same quality standards as bulk orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every order, regardless of size, runs through the same certified facility and the same quality protocols. Our unit holds GMP, WHO-GMP, ISO 9001:2015, ISO 22716, FDCA, USFDA and Halal certifications, and every batch includes documentation, quality testing, and regulatory-ready labelling.

Question 6

Which product categories can I manufacture at low MOQ?

Accepted Answer

We manufacture across skincare, hair care, oral care, baby care, men's grooming, personal care, Ayurvedic and herbal products, and hotel amenities. Minimums vary by category and format, so the practical starting point differs between, for example, a face serum and a toothpaste.

Question 7

What is the shelf life of the finished product?

Accepted Answer

Finished products carry a shelf life of two years. This matters when choosing your MOQ, since your order size should realistically sell through well within that window.

Question 8

How do I get started with HCP Wellness?

Accepted Answer

Share your product category, benchmark reference, desired benefits, key ingredients, and any restrictions. Our team will develop a sample for your approval, and once signed off, we proceed to full production. Contact us or call +91 97234 55627 to discuss your requirements.
