Production certifications (GMP / HACCP)
Health functional foods are made in GMP facilities as a baseline.Confirm whether the manufacturer holds GMP/HACCP certification and the scope (products, forms) it covers — this is the first filter for a stable partner.
Check the issuing body, validity period, and covered products on each certificate.Certification does not mean every form can be produced, so match your intended form against the certified scope.
- GMP: certified health-functional-food manufacturing facility
- HACCP: hazard-analysis critical-control-point certification
- Scope: whether your product and form are covered
Dosage-form production range
Manufacturers differ in the forms they have actually produced.Confirm real production experience for your intended form among softgel, hard capsule, tablet, powder/stick, gummy, and liquid to reduce trial-and-error at the prototype stage.
- Forms handled: softgel/hard capsule, tablet, powder/stick, gummy, liquid
- Complex forms (bilayer, sustained-release) capability
- Flexibility for small-batch, multi-SKU runs
Document issuance (COA / TDS)
Whether you can receive certificates of analysis (COA), technical data sheets (TDS), and specifications on time is a core variable in B2B.Manufacturers that provide documents quickly are better for regulatory response and quality traceability.
Also confirm ingredient standardization data and transparency of origin/manufacturer — this eases labeling/ad review and builds buyer trust.
Quality control & communication
Self-inspection systems, stability-testing history, labeling/regulatory support, and response speed shape the real quality of collaboration.Capability shows not only in certificates but in responsiveness during the first consultation.
To check whether specific capabilities fit your concept, organize your target function, form, and expected volume and request a quote — you'll get tailored guidance after review.

Is GMP certification mandatory?
GMP-facility production is the baseline for health functional foods.Confirm certification and the covered form scope together.
Do different forms need different manufacturers?
Real production experience can differ by form.Checking a manufacturer's track record for your form reduces trial-and-error.
Do I really need COA/TDS?
Certificates and technical data underpin regulatory response, quality traceability, and buyer trust, so confirm they can be issued.
How do I verify capability quickly?
Organize your concept (function, form, expected volume) and request a quote; the review reflects real response capability.
