Private Label Sourcing from India: A Short Guide

Sourcing 2 April 2026 4 min read

Minimum quantities, artwork, compliance and timelines for your own brand.

Minimum order quantities

MOQ is driven by packaging, not the product. Printed pouches and cartons usually set the floor, so we often start with neutral packs plus labels for a first order.

Artwork and approvals

Send print-ready files with your logo, barcode and mandatory declarations. We return a digital proof and a physical sample before mass printing.

Compliance by market

Each destination has its own labelling rules — ingredient order, allergens, net content, importer address. We align artwork with your market before production.

Typical timeline

Allow two to three weeks for samples and approvals, then three to five weeks for production and inspection before the vessel date.
