Frequently Asked Questions

Our MOQ for custom gummy manufacturing starts from 1 ton. The final minimum order quantity is reviewed case by case, based on formula complexity, mold requirements, packaging setup, and the overall launch plan. We work with startup brands and established brands alike, and can help you find the right production path for your stage.

The most useful starting points are your formula direction, target dosage, expected order volume, packaging plan, and target market. If some details are still being finalized, our team can help narrow them down during the project discussion. You don't need a complete brief to start the conversation.

Our typical lead time is 20-40 days, depending on formula complexity, order quantity, and packaging requirements. Once the formula and packaging direction are confirmed, we can provide a more accurate production timeline. Stock formula orders generally move faster than fully custom gummy development projects.

Yes. We support both formulation development and broader gummy product development. This includes custom formulation tailored to your brand, validated stock-formula options for faster market entry, and R&D support covering ingredient selection, dosage design, and flavor optimization. Our 1,000 m² R&D center and Minnesota-based lab collaboration back up the full development process.

Both options are available. You can start from one of our 2,000+ validated stock formulas for faster market entry, or work with our R&D team to develop a fully custom gummy formula based on your brand positioning, active ingredients, dosage requirements, and target market. We develop 400+ new formulas annually to keep our library current.

Yes. We support a wide range of product positioning and target audience directions, including kids, women, men, seniors, and pets. On the functional side, we cover beauty and collagen, probiotics and digestive health, multivitamins, immune support, sleep and relaxation, sports nutrition, energy, metabolic health, and more.

We support a broad range of gummy types and structures, including gelatin gummies, pectin gummies, carrageenan gummies, center-filled gummies, single-color gummies, dual-color gummies, casing gummies, sanded gummies, and stick gummies. Our multi-process capability covers starch mogul depositing, 3D depositing, and casing gummy production.

Yes. Customized gummy options are available across formula, color, shape, and flavor within a single project. Available shapes include bears, hearts, apples, berries, stars, rings, and more, with custom mold options also supported. Gummy weight typically ranges from 0.5 g to 20 g per piece, depending on mold and configuration.

We support a broad range of packaging formats. Primary packaging options include bottles, pouches, jars, blister packs, single packs, and stand-up pouches. Secondary packaging includes paper boxes, PET boxes, tin boxes, and gift boxes. Custom labeling and brand design guidance are also available to align packaging with your product format and target market.

Yes. We support OEM, ODM, private label, and white-label programs, along with custom labeling and brand design guidance. This allows the packaging direction to be fully aligned with both the product format and the requirements of your target market, whether you are launching a new brand or extending an existing product line.

Our compliance and certification framework includes GMP, ISO9001, ISO22000, HACCP, BRCGS, NSF, FDA, HALAL, VEGAN, TGA, and FSSC22000. We operate GMP-certified facilities with Class-100,000 cleanroom standards across our four factories in China, supported by a U.S. subsidiary for R&D and after-sales.

Yes. We support compliance documentation and market-entry preparation, including COA, batch records, and compliance files. We also provide project coordination around regulatory submission requirements for different target markets, with experience supporting product launches across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.

Quality control is built into both the production process and the management system. We use automated gummy manufacturing systems designed for precision and repeatability -- including vacuum cooking with intelligent temperature control, fully automatic online dosing, and dynamic quantitative depositing. This is backed by batch-by-batch testing, documented verification, full traceability from raw material to finished product, validated processes, and quality inspection at every production stage.

Yes. We support production scheduling, order tracking, export documentation, customs clearance support, international logistics coordination, and global shipping solutions. We have experience exporting to Japan, the USA, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia, the UK, Canada, and other markets.

Yes. We support the full path from concept to commercialization, including formulation development, OEM/ODM manufacturing, packaging, quality control, and broader production planning when a project is moving toward scale. For brands planning their own manufacturing facility, we also support equipment selection and in-house setup planning.

Yes. Talvenda works with startup brands, growing brands, established brands, and investors planning future production. For first-time gummy launches, we help match a practical production path based on your product goal, launch stage, timeline, and risk level. That may mean starting with a validated stock formula for faster entry, or building a custom formulation and packaging plan step by step.

Talvenda combines formulation capability, manufacturing execution, and real production-line thinking rooted in pharmaceutical machinery and process engineering. That means your project is supported not only from the formula side, but also from the practical production and scale-up side. While many contract manufacturers focus mainly on production output, Talvenda helps connect formulation, manufacturing, packaging, compliance, and long-term production planning in one coordinated path.
